[@justasasquatchwithinternet1775]

@@chrisdoesstuff3633 damn 15? That’s a bit late. But go to ice rinks and see how it is. If you like it then sign up. Some tips: get most protective helmet you can afford. Not everything needs to be top the line gear. Tip 2: get used to skating until you can go above 10 mph. Then focus on edges and skating backwards. Tip 3: practice as much as you can. If you don’t have a net or pucks then even doing sprints can keep you healthy. Tip 4: get rollerblades, this will help. Tip 5: don’t give up because people are better then you. You will feel like the worst one out there. But keep going!

[@isaiahobi6]

For anyone who plays at a AAA contact level like me, do these drills with your head up, it will help a lot so during a game you are able to skate and look around the ice with your head up with with ease. You’ll be able to make plays faster and see if anyone is trying to hit you.

[@michellegao8372]

I think it should be for all competitive levels.

[@geroldy4546]

At any level do all stickhandling drills with your head up, all my teammates stickhandle with their head down and they cant see great passing opportunities, or even missing the net because the cant see the net.

[@joegrande4848]

Go slow and take breaks. Take pucks andmake different patterns. Whatever you can find make patterns and stick handle between the objects. As you get better pull the obstacle a touch closer and less space between objects

I will put that on the list. These can be done anywhere with a flat smooth surface!

[@tianwu7622]

they always make it look so easy. a fan looked like the stick shooting and moving the puck, though. think it will help?

[@MemphisDC]

Sick handles... Which green puck?

[@InderKhakh681]

For the third and fourth drills, should I look up straight or to my left (on the pucks’ side) ?

[@hockeytraining]

Good question. Most of the time you will be looking somewhere over towards the side of the puck but not always, so I like to switch things up when I'm doing my stickhandling training. Look all around the "ice" while practicing. Create different game scenarios in your head.

[@joegrande4848]

Try doing drills slowly at 1st don't look at puck. Go slow awhile then as u develop go faster. Important to practice all sorts of angles an variations hold stick loosely for speed an relax hands shoulders an forearms an shoulders. Stratch good 1st 😊

[@JakeNester-zi3wm]

Where did you get the square pieces for the stick handling surface? It’s what I need to practice since I don’t have access to ice

[@hockeytraining]

Local hockey stores should have stickhandling pads or you can use a smooth surface with a green biscuit puck

[@cnd5041]

On the Wide Figure 8’s, when you go to your backhand side..do you drag the puck along with the backside of the toe to keep it coming across and then pull it back around? Or, are you just carrying the momentum from the push across through the turn around the stationary puck? I’m struggling on that backhand side to get it all the way around the puck. (I have the same dryland tiles and green biscuit). Thanks!

[@hockeytraining]

I keep the puck on my backhand side of the blade near the toe to pull it all the way around

[@istoleyourpencil1134]

Great! Thank you!

[@joegrande4848]

The figure 8 is a training technique to use that also Kane uses to do a different but more effective variation of a toe drag. Sadly toe drags to pull the puck back towards you you can easily lose. Where using a small yet fast-moving circular motion will keep the puck on the stick more.

[@beeceebee1]

Love the video! Which hockey mat (or whatever you call that white surface you stickhandle on) do you recommend? I need to buy one right about NOW. I'm going crazy without ice time...

[@hockeytraining]

I'd recommend any of them from HockeyShot: www.hockeytraining.com/go/shootingpads/

[@natassialopez1325]

Have been running out of puck handling ideas lately This has helped a lot.😎

[@joegrande4848]

Try getting pucks make x patterns cross patters what ever variation you can think of. Keep some pucks further some closer. When making pattern an practice go slow always keep head up. Keep patterns further away to see alittle better with head up go slow. As you get better put pucks closer together when using stick handling pattern. Also bring pattern a touch closer. Use pvc pipe an put on bottom half of the stick. This will keep u from gripping stick too tight. Top hand turns controlling puck or ball bottom hand is for further control an power also keep top hand loose as well. This will help with speed. Finally try controlling excessive motion as this would leave you more open for the opponent to steal the puck. Your control will get better practice slow build speed gradually. Yes, you will lose the ball not looking down but with your head down when playing you can't analyze what's going on. Why it's important to go slow at 1st be patient take breaks Analyze what you did wrong relax an fix use. Important to have fun stay calm 😊

[@joegrande4848]

Get objects and place them anywhere doesn't matter. Start stick handling around them. Start with your weaker hand do 1 rep and stick handle through the objects you place. Place them close and moderate and far away. Do 3 sets with your weak hand. Take a 1-minute break for each rep. After 3 reps use strong hand 3 reps then use both hands. Start slow look down 1st rep with weak hand and strong hand and when using both. The last 2 sets continue going slow and stick handle with the weak hand then the strong hand then both not looking down. In time you'll get faster. This will be tough but you will get better. If you have a dog stick handle keeping ball away from the dog. My brother use to do these things and he's an incredible hockey player.

[@reyreyquaza10]

this is awesome, definitely gonna use these drills! thank you!

[@tedauch4886]

What is the surface you are using? Will cement garage suffice?

[@hockeytraining]

Synthetic ice tiles, but yes cement garage is great if you have a green biscuit puck or something similar that slides nicely.

[@Star_Number14]

Thanks for the video!

[@jackhogan3541]

do you recommend using the biscuit on the tiles rather than a puck?

[@hockeytraining]

Personally I think it slides better and resembles on ice stickhandling better

How might we organize a stickhandling workout which these individual excercises.

[@hockeytraining]

Hey Daniel, I like doing a drill for 20-40 seconds (depending on the drill and speed) and then rest 20-30 seconds. You would do 2-4 "sets" of the drill before moving on to a new one. Or you could alternate between drills.

[@limaperu1975]

Thanks.

[@joegrande4848]

Funny I remember years ago when I played street hockey with friends and family I used my own weird version on a toe drag. I'd lay the whole stick flat going horizontal an drag the whole blade leaving heel slightly elevated. Wasn't anything like the Kane crawl just a butchered version of it that worked. The small half circle to drag the puck towards you to add a spin and pull the puck towards you is more affective

[@victormagnani9570]

Hello i'm using a shooting pad with a green biscuit, but the puck doesnt slide like yours. How can I get a similar sensation than your setup ?

[@TieMontana]

How long should u do one move and how long rest after that?

[@hockeytraining]

Depending on your speed, usually around 30-40 seconds and rest 20-30 seconds

[@joegrande4848]

I'd do 1 minute each exercise start slow don't look at puck to develop 20 minutes every day. As you get better increase circuits of stick handling drills find more difficult drills as u get better. Do 1/2 of these take a 2 minute break then finish

[@pavelsvejda8835]

Great video! It just seems that the stick is too long for you, but I might be wrong. Maybe it is the angle making it look like that.

[@hockeytraining]

I like a longer stick for added reach on the ice

[@hockeytraining]

For resistance training workouts or skill work? For your dryland training you want to be controlled but explosive on the concentric portion (for example for squats you would be going down at a slower tempo and explode up under control).

[@xypo1138]

Thanks

[@josephharkin2817]

Can you link the pads your training on?

[@raybro2505]

Is it encouraged to keep head up? I’m able to stickhandle without looking down and should you practice everyday? Thanks

[@hockeytraining]

Yes stickhandling can be done every day. I would probably take one day off a week personally, but because it's low impact if you aren't completely burning out your forearms you can do it daily. Eyes up when you can, always.... but when you are practicing moves it's ok to look down at the puck. You'll see Daniel Sedin with his eyes down doing drills in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6XCc6CYds9-ibs. When you get on the ice you want to have your head up with the puck most of the time, but when you make your move you can look down at the puck to ensure you keep control (you will see that in the NHL during games).

[@josephsears3781]

I’m 50 years old and just started learning how to skate and play hockey. At this point I’m Focusing more on my skating. I haven’t yet been involved in any stick skills during my course. What kinds of stick skills or pick skills should a beginner like me focus on?

Do these. Also they have stick handling training aides to can get on Amazon you should practice stick handling every day 20 minutes 1 minute each exercise 😊

[@josephsears3781]

Thanks for the guidance Joe! I appreciate it. I have been checking out some of the items for sale that will help me practice while off the ice. I will take your suggestions to heart and get moving on this. So far I’m improving well in my skating and will be taking a power skating course in the summer. From there I should be in excellent condition to restart my hockey course. Take care.

[@travisschildt7884]

My son is currently 8, moving up to 10U. How long would you recommend repping each drill?

[@joegrande4848]

I'd say honestly 1 minute. After 6 drills take a short break. Tell him keep his head up. If he gets frustrated tell him step away relax have fun keep going. Also, can use different objects like balls or pucks to make patterns. The spaces between some distance after he gets better put objects slightly closer be sure there's enough space is just wide enough for ball to go between. Practice 20 minutes every day 😊
