Elevate hockey players to the highest level of performance with NHL skating techniques.
As hockey evolves, players require more strength, power, and agility to keep up with the fast-paced game. If they cannot combine skating skills with endurance and efficiency, they will be left behind. Hockey Skating breaks down vital skating techniques into their simplest form so players and coaches can build a strong foundation and dominate on the ice.
By honing their skating skills, players can improve their overall in-game performance. Sharing techniques taught in the NHL, this book helps players and coaches assess strengths and weaknesses, then tailor their training to ensure continued development. The book includes the following:
- A drill finder organized by skill level and areas needing improvement
- Quotes from pro hockey players emphasizing the value of skating skills
- Coaching tips, technique tips, and common mistakes to look out for
- Variations to change the difficulty level of drills
Skating for hockey is unlike any other form of skating; it requires a unique set of skills and techniques to keep players powerful and efficient as they navigate the ice. Guidance from the pros will push players to challenge themselves and focus on weak areas that need attention.
Hockey Skating is a key resource for both players and coaches. With a strong skating foundation, players can build their repertoire of skills and execute each one with precision when the puck drops.
