As a figure skater the untied skates in the end hurt me mentally BUT the whole video is really accurate

same, i swear i felt my heart skip a beat

@@connmcskilly I THOGUHT UNITED SKATES LOLLL

[@hazelnut121]

It’s good that you mentioned how you tied your skates because it makes a huge difference in skating. Here in the US (Texas), a lot of people wrap the laces around the back of their skates in order to make them tighter and I don’t think they realize how inhibiting it is. Great video! 🤘🏻

[@ididsomething6157]

I’ve played hockey for about 2 years, and I learned how to use my edges and eagle, crossovers, from you! I was able to cross over only 5 weeks into skating! Thank you!!!

Uggghh I fell on my add, my knee, and my wrist stopping. Brand new skates and I’m hoping the plastic boot won’t be the death of me. I hadn’t been on the ice in about 12 years so I hope I don’t die. All I did was throw myself around while bruising the Fcuk out of my knee 😫😫

[@jordanjoestar76]

I watched this for tips i can relate to inline skating but feel I now discovered ice skating has lots of cool tricks! I thought it was just ballerina spins and spinning jumps but you make it look like capoera and breakdancing/tricking. SO dope.

[@eccologg]

1 year ago i wanted to try hockey skates but my mum never allowed me :,( and my dad bought me 2 pairs of hockey skates and i started practice every day with my dad and after 4 months i could do so many things my mum only knew after 3 months that i have hockey skates 😂 i'm very thankful to my dad that he brought me into this sport :D my favorite thing is backwards crossovers

I played hockey for over 15 years, even though i can do everything on both sides I always have one side that is slightly easier than the other

[@sambou6286]

this guy is the king of ice, when he skates, the ice slips on him🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣....

[@asphyxxiant]

there is a simpler answer to everything... practice. People probably think they are going to learn all these tricks by watching the videos and going to their local busy rink once a week. No chance in frozen hell. 3 times a week x 2 hours is the bare minimum if you want to advance.

[@ricardoemile4253]

This is exactly what I've been doing 3 to 4 times a week for 2hrs a session I've overtaken people that have been skating for a year or two years time and practice

First get skates that fit. I remember as a kid my parents always buying several sizes too big as they always bought used skates. Had to wear 3,4 pairs of socks and ankles still bent.

[@mwont]

There or 4 sizes too big is too much. But skates are expensive and you don't want to buy new skates for your kid every six months.

[@josephsears3781]

I wish I could download your skating knowledge into my brain! I’m 50 years old and for the first time in my life I’m learning how to skate and play hockey. Wish I had started when I was young. It’s tough being 6’4” and 260 pounds learning how to skate. Sprained my wrist and my back falling a few times. I’m looking to practice skating about twice a week in lessons and then during my learn to play hockey course. I’d love to be able to do the hockey stop. I was at a lesson today and got half of it. But I get terrified when I have to lift my back skate to get into the position to slide on the outer edge. Hope it comes with time.

[@MaskSwabe]

Very informative as always ! Thank you sir 👊

[@felicitymorgan2456]

Great video. All about that practice and muscle memory for me. I like to take in all the different ways people learn things and find what makes senses and fits me best....not thinking about things is normally best 😂

[@davidgdgdg]

Lovely. I’ve never really ice skated but I ski on slalom skis And when I manage to get them on their edges so that they carve two cleanly turned lines through the snow, it feels as though I am skating. Just downhill 😊

[@ricardoemile4253]

I am on my maximum bite of 9mm it was more to just try it but I've found the grip amazing I don't know if I could have a less bite I was 13mm short on my tblades before

[@MsTemperTantrum739]

Honestly all of this crazy ice skating this guy was doing looks scary.😱 But fun at the same time!😲

[@mwont]

It's not crazy. He is a freestyler. It requires a lot of practice what he does, but for hokey skating you basically need front and back crossovers and stops. The you add sharp turns and that's it.

[@s3lenka]

[@wandmayeslupik6302]

Yesss!!!!always get fingers off ice when falling!!! Some poor lady at Maggie Daley ice rink in Chicago last week had her finger run over by a blade....fortunately it was not all the waY off!!!

[@death2pc]

Many recreational and hockey focused skaters have too much (deep) hollow. This so impedes better skating..............

i ve rollerbladed for 9 years and ice skated for a month and i just realised i have no idea how to stop even though i can go very fast... which is kinda not very safe

[@gabgab2737]

Boss is there a thing called baking your skate?been practicing ice skate for 2 weeks can easily do it but my feet hurt somthing. Baking your skate will fix the hurting,yes?🤔

[@jaa2472]

any learning tips for me i can crossover backwards counterclockwise ie right behind left, but i cant really grasp the clockwise crossover left behind right, any thoughts?

[@stephenklump2421]

Practise your glide on backward outside edge, around the circle (right shoulder toward the centre), until you are comfortable on it. Weight goes back almost as if just getting out of a chair. Once your balance is good, dare to add power. Consider a full face cage when learning backward crossovers - once you hit the power stroke just right the acceleration can be a surprise, and I would have broken my jaw twice because when learning I wasn't leaning back enough.

[@jeycalc6877]

My biggest issue is balancing on my left foot, I just balance on my right foot because I get too afraid lol, I'm getting better though

[@maddieek6865]

I like the ungraceful falling a lot of these videos make it look so painless and easy LOL

[@rebeldown771]

If you have limited ankle and calf mobility, will that make it more difficult for you to skate?

[@sk-sm9sh]

Coming from inline skates I don't quite understand how hockey skates work. If I tie laces too tight then there isn't forwards flex and laces bites into my leg very painfully. However if I make them loser then ankle is too lose side to side. I think the size of my shoes is just perfect. Maybe I need stronger ankles for ice skating.

[@zedarated]

What's interestingly funny is the fact that people who have like 5-6 days of experience try to learn from people who have like 10-20 years of experience.

Are your skates properly sharpened?

[@n444xff9]

We are waiting for new video

[@crawfordrhoderick2942]

Do we not not learn from our mistakes regardless of how much it hurts.

[@Lvs_90]

Figure skaters' advise is to have minimum of socks on, like a thin pair and have the skates tight also in size, so I'm confused

[@NagyerdeiKorisok]

That's a good advice if you're about to do tricks, because double socks slide on each other., making you have less control. However when you're renting skates, the chance of doing tricks is minimal, but the injury because of all those plastic parts are higher, so it's probably better to have some extra protection.

[@melissachacko284]

How often should a beginner go skating? 1-2 x a week?

[@michaelsuzio4364]

Once a week is enough depends if you love ice skating you can go 3 times a week...I'm an intermediate skater I don't skate that often..once a month...I can crossover forwards come to a stop sort of most of the time I can skate backwards but sort of slow(better than when I first started going back wards).. progressing from beginner to intermediate took me 5-6 two hour sessions

Every weak i get about 5 hours of ice time to practice, I don't know if that's a lot or not but I love ice skating and hockey.

[@lokei1326]

Depends on what your goals/plans are. I drive a Zamboni at rink but only recently started ice skating so my info is purely observational. If you're just wanting to have fun/learn basics then you have plenty of ice time but if you're wanting to actually play ice hockey at a remotely competitive level you'd want a good deal more and for it to be in a lesson format (learn to skate classes at first but definitely private lessons). I take my 7 and 4 yo out just about every week for 1.5-2.5 hours of public skate sessions and once I got them into 30 minute LTS once a week I saw their skills and confidence skyrocket.

[@alikapotter7909]

It depends on what you do for figure skater at hockey player no but if you are in can skate or go out for fun then yes

[@mwont]

That's a lot.

[@aku6655]

In my ice rink you’d be told to get off in about 3 seconds doing some of those things lol

[@NagyerdeiKorisok]

that's the exact reason I started to fight for this sport and spread the knowledge with the tutorials

I drive a Zamboni at a rink and unless it were a private rental or a training session with pretty much just him...he'd be sent packing.

Why? What's wrong with what he is doing? Too dangerous?

[@aku6655]

@@mwont with beginners on the ice it can end very badly yes. Especially at my rink where every public session has between 100-300 people per session on average

[@Xerdoz]

Those skates look really loose.

[@raynaudier8622]

# 1 - don't use rental skates; [here, anyway] they prefer to have the blades dull (for liability reasons), and a dull blade can't grip the ice; you can't do anything (& it's dangerous). Even low-level skates to buy [FROM A SKATE SHOP WHERE THEY FIT THE SKATE TO YOUR FOOT] are not expensive, and are so much better than rental skates; the difference is night and day.

[@sophia_9652]

Is ice skating like roller blading???

[@lokei1326]

No and yes. CoG is the same, body mechanics (how you push, posture, etc) are similar. The feel is totally different, stopping is nothing alike...it's hard to put into words. I skated in-line until around 16 then got busy with work, hobbies, girls, and stopped. Ice skated the first time when the rink I resurface at closed last March and it was rough but the second time I got on ice it felt a lot better (the ice being fresh the first time made it hard to balance on dull rental skates) and now, less that 2 dozen skates later I move fairly well.

[@stephenklump2421]

@@lokei1326 See Bill Stoppard's tutorials on hockey stops for inline skates if interested - it's the fastest stop on urethane. Inline skating is more like skating on rails (until you rocker them) but regardless, the runner is much longer to the front on inlines.

I though this were tips for figure skaters but nope ;-;

[@kys8330]

It's easier to learn stops, when the blade is not sharp.

just mentioned this in the video. shallow radius doesn't mean it's blunt. It's just shallow, but sharp :)

yes but there is difference in sharp and dull stops, if u learn stop on dull blades, when u get them sharpened you will find yourself in the begining point of learning the stop again
