- Unlock the KEY to quickly changing directions in Hockey.
The Crossunder and Punch Turn aren't the only ways to change directions on the ice. In this video, we're going to look at a quick mechanic that you can start using instantly to become more elusive on the ice. This mechanic allows you to change directions instantly, with less energy expenditure, giving you the ‘Downhill Effect’ like the NHL’s best.
Learning how to skate effectively is the key to becoming a better hockey player. That includes how to quickly change directions and how to steer your body on the ice to avoid your opponents and score more goals. The Downhill Skating system is the next evolution of hockey training, built through insights gained from watching thousands of hours of NHL Superstar Mechanics, and turning them into actionable hockey training and hockey drills for all levels. Whether you're just learning to play hockey, are on the cusp of making the jump to the next level, or are already an established pro, Train 2.0 can help you reach that next summit in your hockey development journey. We hope you enjoy today's hockey mechanic tutorial.

Steering your body is one of the most important mechanics you can use to become more elusive and more dangerous on-ice. Tell us how you've used the Downhill Skating system mechanics to reach your full potential on and off the ice.
Hello, sorry for the translation, I would like to know if I can learn these ice skating mechanics, with in-line skates for street hockey, greetings from Mexico
This channel is the stick handling instruction all beginners should be looking for. Finally some instruction on what fundamentals to practice.
Appreciate that, thanks for the comment.
I can't express just how great the content on this channel is; would love to take a trip from Denmark and spend a full week getting this kind of practice.
Glad you're enjoying it. Thanks for the kind words.
Amazing content! As a former pro hockey player I absolutely love how you dissect the movement and make it simple to understand for players of every level. Keep it up!
I appreciate that, thank you.
Jason your videos are awesome. As a 40 year old, new hockey player, it's super necessary to learn these mechanics because I don't have the background many of the guys I'm playing against have. Thanks so much for the work you do!
Glad to help, thanks for tuning in.
the best content about the hockey!
Thanks, glad you enjoy it 👍
Hi Jason, i think you have awesome training content in your channel.
Appreciate the kind words.
I've noticed this a lot when guys are going in toward the goalie for a last sec change of direction on a breakaway, etc. I always assumed it's more of the anchor foot move is removing the weight of that foot from the equation (while still maintaining some stability of spreading the body weight over both feet and maintaining some contact on the ice) and removing the anchor foot's skate edges from locking the skater into a forward path so now the only thing guiding the skater's trajectory is the other's foot's inside edge curving the skater's path sharply. Basically, you could do the same thing by removing the anchor foot completely off the ice and putting 100% of the weight on the other foot, except it's too difficult to roll the other foot's ankle under the full pressure of the bodyweight to turn that sharply if the skater has significant forward momentum. Is all the anchor foot doing "getting out of the way" of how the other foot's wants to steer the body (and maybe providing a bit more stability/dispersement of body weight) or is the edge of the anchor actively "braking" and/or contributing to steering the skater in that direction?
Yes, lot to unpack here. So The anchor foot does help you cut sharper and does add stability helping you laterally. I wouldn't say its "getting out of the way" but more of a rudder to help you steer. If you were to simply pick the foot up , you wouldn't be able to cut as sharp because its harder to maintain Y-angle on the C-cut skate and you lose the 'brake' from the anchor foot. Hope that helps answer your question.
Yeah it seems like close to the net would be an ideal place for the anchor, where suddenly cutting your momentum adds more deception and also helps keep you from plowing the goalie over
I'm trying to learn your terminology: so the soft drag is when you lift your heel, and the anchor is when you lift your toe? Thank you!
Correct!
Cool vids man, what level of hockey did you play up to?
Thank you. Canadian college and after I had some time in the KHL.
Fellow Canadian, atta boy haha @@Train2point0

Hey no worries! yes, we have lots of drills that can be done in inline skates and sneakers that simulate Downhill Skating.
Yup.
I’m good on the bottom hand side anchor but not my knob side, i’m weak on my knob side foot
Normal to have a side you turn better too based on your hips typically rotating internally and externally one way better than the other.
@@Train2point0 also I loose my balance on my knob side (left handed)
Is it good to practice these mechanics on roller blades?
Absolutely. We have a lots of drills for roller/ mars blades in the Downhill Skating System.
I trip over my own skates and change directions very fast.
haha that is one way.
I feel like you also teach physics.
How dare you use goals on seattle as visual 🙈🥅🏒
Haha the game tape doesn't lie.
