    In this video we teach how to take a snapshot with a quick release. The snapshot is a great shot to use when you don't want to give the goalie any clues that you are going to shoot. This is a shot that every hockey player should know and practice. We also teach you the difference between the wristshot and snapshot.

    Started playing hockey a just over two years ago, I've watched this video many many times to try and learn how to take a snap shot so I don't have to set myself up to take a full-on wrist shot. Took a really nice snap shot in a game last week (goalie got a piece with the back end of his stick) and the ref gave me props and said "not many people know how to take a good snap shot"!... thanks How To Hockey and Coach Jeremy!!! Your videos are awesome!

    @howtohockeytraining  Před 11 lety +6

    Yes the best place for this snapshot is from in close, when you need to get a quick shot off. After a lot of practice you should be able to get a powerful snapshot, however the wristshot (as shown in my other video) allows you to use more of your body and put more power into the shot vs the snapshot shown in this video.

  • @howtohockeytraining
    @howtohockeytraining  Před 11 lety +13

    Start learning with it in the middle, then try the toe. Once you learn to flex the shaft and blade you can effectively shoot right from the toe like some of the pro's do. You can also pull it in with the toe and then snap it near the middle.

      Not at all. There are kids on my high school team who started last year, or the year before. They aren't very good compared to the rest of our team, and often don't dress for our games, but if you don't go into it expecting to start or anything, it can still be a lot of fun. You will certainly still get the experience, and I would absolutely recommend you do it.

Thanks to you and your tutorial videos! I might have chance to join to some club. I am 15 and i really wanted to play hockey in my Country own club. S-Kiekko. And my parents told me that i didnt say enough that i wanted to play hockey. I do play hockey in outside ice, for 5 hours to 7 hours a day. But thanks to you i learned all the thing they would have taught in the club. Thank you really much man for everything! For every video you made, they helped me getting forward and better in hockey. Thank you really really much! Also Greetings From Finland! Have a good day man :)!

    Hey Jeremy - another great video. I love how in depth you go by breaking it down into slow motion.
    However I am wondering...what camera do you use to shoot these?
    I ask because when you slow mo it the picture is very blurry. If you used an HD camera and filmed in 720p, you could have you slow mo's captured with up to 60 fps (frames per second) giving you that clear slow mo picture, and your viewers the clear idea you are instructing them on.

  • @howtohockeytraining
    @howtohockeytraining  Před 11 lety +1

    Yeah, you need to get a feel for where the puck is on the blade of your stick. The only way to do this is with practice. Eventually just by stickhandling you will know if the puck is at the toe, heel, or middle from the feel of it.
    Work on it off the ice by stickhandling a few times, then take a peak at your blade then look at your target and then shoot. After a while try doing it without looking at your stick first. Get used to the feel when the puck is in the middle of your blade

    How important is the accuracy in a slap shot? Or should I only focus on power and quick release because as you said I want to catch the goalie off guard....

  • @kingjulien1616
    @kingjulien1616 Před 11 lety

    with the right technique any stick, but before I got a composite with the p92 curve, I couldn't get the puck off the ice, and now I'm getting the puck off the ice very easily. Also, make sure you get a stick with lots of flex, and really push the stick down into the ice when you shoot.

  • @SardineCanSuccess
    @SardineCanSuccess Před 8 lety +5

    Jeremy I had a question, I notice when some players shoot, right before the puck is shot there is a snapping sound, probably from the flex of the stick. I've been trying to get that "pop" but since your stick is on the puck for the snapshot I'm unable to do it. Any tips?

    • @eulenspeigel
      @eulenspeigel Před 8 lety

      +SardineCanSuccess Think of the shot as more of a super condensed slap shot. It will help your release and snap if you dont bring the puck back with you, but instead flex the stick and then make contact with the puck. Its hard to describe

    • @SardineCanSuccess
      @SardineCanSuccess Před 8 lety

      +eulenspeigel Actually ive tried that and it worked but the issue im having is how to snap the puck on a snapshot, i just kind of seem to throw it and not snap the puck. since its a snapshot my stick is always touching the puck so i cant snap it.

    • @CrazedGwonam97
      @CrazedGwonam97 Před 8 lety +2

      +SardineCanSuccess hey what you do is sort of combine snapshot and wristshot. you pull the puck forward like a wrist shot and the puck should leave your stick for a split second. then snap putting your weight in the stick and it should be a harder shot. you should also hear the snapping sound

    • @therealjezzyc6209
      @therealjezzyc6209 Před 8 lety +1

      +SardineCanSuccess The way you od it is you shoot kinda like a mid Slapshot. You make contact with the ice before the puck. The contact with the ice creates that snap as well as begin flexing your stick so it catches the puck an sends it flying. The best place to make contact is like an inch or 2 away from the puck

      Maybe it doesn't happen as often, but there's plenty of situations where you will take them while stationary. Like if you have the puck at the point and you need to get it off quick, or if your get a pass in the slot but it's a bit off so you can't one-time it.

    • @fridgepuff1722
