Comparatively, not only must you learn advanced stick skills and the complex hybrid nature of hockey, but you must also learn how to skate.<\/p>\n<p>Relatively speaking, there is no other sport with such a difficult learning period. If you can\u2019t catch, you can still hit in baseball. If you can\u2019t shoot well, you can play defense in soccer. But hockey? If you can\u2019t skate, you can\u2019t play hockey. So, in order to help with the steep task of learning how to not only stand, but excel on those sharp blades, CoachUp has compiled a list of things to do while beginning to skate so that you don&#8217;t end up like the guy below.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d13csqd2kn0ewr.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/image\/file\/22747\/cropped_Raymond.gif\" alt=\"Hockey Mistake\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/d13csqd2kn0ewr.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/image\/file\/22747\/cropped_Raymond.gif\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bend Your Knees<br \/><\/strong>Bend your knees deeply in front of your toes so that they\u2019re close to a 90 degree angle. By having a good knee bend, you will develop better balance and a noticeable increase of power in your strides.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keep Your Head Up<br \/><\/strong>It\u2019s vital that you keep your head up and your eyes forward. Although it may seem to be an obvious tip, many players aren\u2019t conscious of what\u2019s going on around them. Keeping your head down might not allow you to correctly prepare for contact. At the youth level, this is a huge factor in avoiding concussions. In the beginning, it\u2019ll be initially difficult to keep your eyes up instead of down on the puck, but keep working at it. With enough practice, you can improve your stickhandling skills and become much more comfortable you move on the ice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fully Extend Your Body<br \/><\/strong>When you\u2019re skating from one end of the rink to the other, it\u2019s crucial that you extend your leg and ankle out to their maximum length during each stride. By doing this, you can attain more speed and be more explosive on the ice. When you&#8217;re striding, make sure you avoid bobbing up and down. By developing a smooth, long stride, you\u2019ll also gain better balance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wide Strides All Day, Every Day<br \/><\/strong>Whether you\u2019re a beginner or a professional, maintaining proper strides with your feet hip width apart is hugely important in proper skating form. By having your skates too close together you can and will easily lose your balance. Once you&#8217;ve reached a decent speed, your strides should be much wider than when you took off. With full extension on both sides, your speed can increase significantly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Toe Flicks Aren\u2019t Just For Looks<br \/><\/strong>Use your toes to flick or rip the ice &#8212; it\u2019s as if you\u2019re pushing off and forward with every stride. Imagine it like a sprinter would, you want to make sure you\u2019re pushing off with your toes at all times to maintain top speed. This will help you significantly in gaining an extra boost of power at the end of each stride.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Make Your Center Of Gravity Your Center Of Attention<br \/><\/strong>Speaking of which, having a low center of gravity and balance is the key factor in many great skater\u2019s successes. The lower you are, the harder you are to move or knock down. Conversely, the higher you are, the easier it is to knock you off balance. Simply put, your balance is everything. This low center of gravity, combined with the bent knees and longer strides, will make you absolutely lethal in terms of directional changes, sturdiness, and overall smoothness.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Get Your Arms Involved<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While many believe that fast skating is predicated on swinging your arms side to side, that\u2019s actually incredibly bad for your balance and technique. Instead, by moving your arms in a front-to-back motion, as if you were a dryland sprinter, you\u2019ll propel your entire body forward for a much more effective stride.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keep Your Stick At The Ready<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When watching professionals like Sidney Crosby or Pavel Datsyuk, it\u2019s undeniably clear that they\u2019re always ready for the puck. Even if you\u2019re not expecting a pass, it\u2019s important to always be mentally sharp and ready for one. Additionally, your stick can always be used as a third leg and to prop you up when you need some helpful balance.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Related: Read about the importance of skating drills <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachup.com\/resources\/ice-hockey\/importance-of-skating\" rel=\"follow\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.coachup.com\/resources\/ice-hockey\/importance-of-skating\">here<\/a>.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Huddle Up<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Learning how to skate for the first time isn\u2019t always an exercise in speed, it\u2019s a battle of simply staying on your feet.
