Hockey Stop: the Two Biggest Mistakes and How to Fix Them

What an amazing explanation. The heel and toe explanation is gold for understanding what you need to do and why.

@@herbjergens6350 if your 43 and I’m 16 that means I’ve got at least another 27 years before I learn it. 😂😂

[@almo8989]

Lifting the back leg was such an eye opener for me. I was always able to hockey stop on the front leg, but can't figure out what to do with the back leg. This helped a lot!

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Yeah I forgot I actually did that until I watched myself stopping😃Glad I could help out!

[@MikeM-vz8xi]

Ive been a roller player all my life so I’m used to my weight in my heels when I stop. I’ve watched many videos to explain how to properly stop on ice, but this video by far is the best. I can’t wait to try this out now!

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Thank you! Also good for me to know that you need to use your heels to stop on rollerblades, because I’m trying to learn that and have no clue how😂

@@MarcelsHockeySchool Check out Bill Stoppard's tutorials. Keep an eye on the back foot and make sure you keep it under your hips throughout the slide. My input is that elbow pads are a must when you're learning as you may tip before you slide.

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

@ I’ve seen a few of his and they’re really good. I’ll try again this summer.

[@Nunez87]

"hope you like this video" dude, I love it. Best video on the subject I've come across. Thanks for being so thorough throughout the entire video. You managed to make me able to visualize what I need to work on which for me is a complete game changer.

Bruh this is the most understanding video I have seen on how to hockey stop! I have watched 15 other hockey stop turtorials, but didn’t understand, THIS was the best I understand everything now! Thank you man, you should be really proud of your self or this video because this helped me so much and you are really good at explaning!!

@@MarcelsHockeySchool 👌🏽❤️

[@Mralanyrx]

This is super helpful, Even though I don’t struggle with stopping I never really understand how the toe shoves the ice and heels glide and turn, now I do and this will help me control with stopping and turning better. Also your English is very good for a Guy who speaks German

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Thank you! Yeah it’s important to know some of the physics of skating so that you know what part of the blade to use. Well, I’m Canadian, so I guess you could say that my German is pretty good for a guy who speaks English 😃

[@Bubs.]

What I got from this: - Stay low, knees bent - weight on middle to front part of skate - front foot stops with inside edge, back foot stops with outside edge Tips that I got from my brother: - keep your eyes angled up, that way you don’t tip forward - stay low (good to see it still stands)

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Good stuff👍 I have no clue what my eyes do when I stop. I’ll have to see next time!

[@Antizokker]

Great explication. Always had the problem with stopping in a curve instead of really stooping :)

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

yeah a lot of people have that. Glad I could help you out!

[@ottoxtt446]

I looked at dozens of tutorials and I still didn't succeed, but this tutorial explains perfectly where we're going wrong, I finally succeeded, thank you!

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

You’re welcome! Glad I could help!

[@garyk5277]

Best info starts at 5:00 exactly. Really awesome tutorial it's just a matter of practice to get that weight transference to work with your edges which I cannot do the back leg thing yet (often my back skate skips/hops across the ice weirdly instead of making a smooth scrape)but I feel closer after watching this video. Thanks.

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Glad I could help! Yes, the back leg is definitely tougher. Just keep working on it💪

[@deltabravo1811]

Step with the inside leg, or relieve all pressure to glide the blade laterally, and reset it on the outside edge, slightly behind the outside blade. It's very similar to downhill skiing.

[@0black0rain]

Best description of the hockey stop, I’ve been following other tutorials and doing the mistakes you mentioned without knowing. Thank you so much!

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

You’re welcome! Glad I could help you out!

[@krissimon2502]

Thanks , awesome tutorial. Didn't know why my skates were digging in and not shaving the ice, but after this video I was able to finally do it the right way. Also when starting to learn it in the beginning don't turn both feet just the front to get a feel for that sliding motion, at least it helped me to get more comfortable before I started turning both. Now it's just all about practicing it to get comfortable with it.

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Glad that I was able to help! Have fun practicing!

[@EveCroft-w4g]

I love the breakdown of this, most videos don't explain it well, they just say do this, but you don't really know technically what is happening. I'm struggling with the back leg just dragging behind, i think the biggest thing i got from this video is to lean the opposite way to get on that outer edge of the back skate, I'm likely way too straight up and down, so my skate just drags. Also I always need to do more knee bend. Tore my acl from standing too straight after stopping, that is a 12 month lesson i never want to learn again! Really awesome video, thank you so much!

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

I’m really glad that I could help you! The faster you go, the more you have to lean back. The slower you are, the straighter you can be!

[@Compos-Mentis-123]

Touching the problems nicely. Very important: The back leg is not much more, then decoration or a crutch, that you don't fall after you finished the stop. After teaching numerous beginners...you only touched the surface of the problem with your solution for the "why do I skate a curve or got into a rotation move". While it is right, what you said here, the beginners have to much weight on their feet, when they turn. The turn has to be quick and with virtually no weight. You won't see this little move, if a "pro" makes a hockey stop, but as a beginner, it's helpful, to go up right before the turn (like a jump without jumping) and then down again in the turn with full weigth on the front leg. And two further tips: Learning a hockey stop takes time, so don't be frustrated. It's the most difficult move of the casual moves/techniques. If you want to help yourself...don't try it with (fresh) sharp blades, you won't learn it with them, if you're not a 100 kg guy.

[@clifton4th]

One of the best and simple stop explainers I've seen. Getting onto the ball of your foot/front of skate is critical

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Thanks a lot!

[@Mas0n0saM]

love this video; learning to play hockey now, and I always seem to swing around in a circle when I stop. This guide clearly pointed out why that was happening, and how to fix it. Hopefully I'll get some ice time tomorrow and I can practice getting a full stop!

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Glad I could help and I hope you can fix it!

[@jakebakker8224]

You’re welcome! Have fun on your rink!

[@Mustang_Dan]

This is a really good video, thank you. I taught myself how to hockey stop on my strong side several years ago (pond/street/roller hockey experience only) and now I’m getting back into hockey to play ice hockey specifically. Well after going to a few open skates to get my mojo back, it seems I’ve forgotten something about hockey stopping and embarrassed myself being one of the best skaters at the open skates, able to do all other things like cross overs, backwards, backwards crossovers, etc but not stop properly. I kept spinning or stopping too fast like my blade got stuck in a rut. Turns out, thanks to your video, I forgot to bend my knees and only use the front half of the blades. Thank you.

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

You’re welcome! Glad I helped you out!

[@aveabutchers]

Well done! This helped immensely. Skated a lot and played a little as a kid, but 30 years of mainly inlines had caused my hockey stops to disappear. I needed the right nudges to reactivate old muscle memories and this video was the right one for that purpose.

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

That’s great to hear and I’m glad I could help!

[@Nichaelas]

This is a great video because it teaches you how to fix these issues without requiring you think too hard about it. Having your body in the right position eliminates the need to think "Ok I need to use the middle to front part of my blade" because as pointed out that position takes weight off your heel. Leaning back is also compartmentalized by using the logic of "After we stop that's the direction I want to be going." The only thing you have to actively think about is shifting the weight off your back leg enough for you to get it on it's outside edge. Which after enough times of it getting stuck and you fixing it that will also become muscle memory. The less things you need to focus on the less likely you are to mess one thing up being too concerned about another part. It's a great teaching method.

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Thanks, I’m glad you liked it!

I am just barely learning ice after a summer of inline skates. I was really driving with my heels trying to initiate stops. So your explanation was awesome about the toe pressure. Tomorrow back to the ice and try this!! Also I love the rocker feel of the hockey skates! The turns are incredible.

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Yeah it’s weird because so many things are very similar between inline and ice skating, but stopping is sooooo different. Good luck✊

[@Beech1900pilot]

Good video. I played around with this on the ice today. Made a small breakthrough. Hard to describe but I mentally focused on softening the inside leg and that somehow seemed to help me get it on the outside edge more naturally.

You’re welcome! Yeah getting on the back leg, and hence the outside edge, ist the toughest part for most people. Once you get that, other skills become easier

What I am noticing as a noob for stopping is that with the inside foot, the rear heel actually comes around almost like doing a transition. A guy at the rink was showing me to lift up my inside foot and plant it, exactly like you are doing, then I noticed he was actually turning his inside heel almost like a transition... That worked! Once I started taking my rear foot heel and started pointing it at a greater angle than the stop foot, it comes up on the toe, and bam, two foot stop! Thanks for the tips!

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

@@radrose4864 thanks so much!

[@ricks.9984]

Marcel. Very good explanation of the hockey stop. I have two tips you might find helpful. I train kids to stop by first getting them to do the pregame crease scrape that goalies do. Like you, I emphasize the need to be in a bit of a crouch and to scrape with the front half of the blade. If after several attempts and they are still getting a lot of chatter, their skates may be too sharp for their weight and strength so I might have them dull their blades a bit on the base of the door to the bench. I find that once they are able to do the goalie scrape they gain a little confidence. Then I have them try a stop while skating next to and parallel to the boards with their hands reaching out toward the dasher. They can grab it if they need to or if they are getting a bit wobbly. These two tips seem to work pretty well. Skates that are too sharp and the fear of falling are two obstacles I try to address when training kids to use their edges.

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Hi Rick, yes those are good tips! In my first hockey Stop tutorial (it was in German) I covered that first one. I basically tell the kids to “make as much snow as you can”😃 and I agree, most skates are too sharp i.e. sharpened too deeply. They’d be better suited with a flatter hollow.

[@ryancaskey4975]

What are some tips you give adults? Lol I came from roller hockey and I’m in my 3rd season on ice. I’ve gotten way better at skating and wasn’t to much of an issue with a small adjustment period. The big problem is my game being limited due to the fact I can’t properly hockey stop and quickly change directions like I could in roller. I can make one handed aggressive moves to the net with ease, but I can’t make a quick stop and open up to look for the pass or prepare for a one timer. At this point I’m getting frustrated lol.

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

@@ryancaskey4975 I give the same tips to adults as I do to kids. It’s basically just a lot of practice and figuring out what you’re doing wrong. Film yourself like I did in this video and have a look at how your body positioning is and what part of your blade you’re stopping with!

[@kyleSTI]

I went from the plow stop, to the "turn stop", to the one foot inside edge stop. I primarily use one foot while stopping and have an issue trying to use that inside leg outside edge. and if I'm tired and lazy, that inside leg drags behind. I've found that when I want to come to a complete stop quicker, putting that inside leg outside edge down stops me but doesn't really shave the ice itself. I have yet to learn the outside edge one foot stop too. my skating abilities are not quite there yet. but I keep trying every time I'm on the ice. recently I've been practicing 3 turn (with a figure skating class to become a more capable technical skater.), then transitioning into a figure 8 style to program both side mechanics in stead of relying on strong side only. if my steel is dull enough, I'm able to slide and shave the ice on that outside edge when in the middle of transitioning from one foot to the other in my 3 turns. I have not been able to comprehend the proper mechanics behind the actual outside edge stop. to end this long message. thank you for uploading the videos you do. I've learned many things from you and others.

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Your welcome: glad I could help you! When doing the 3, I’d actually recommend trying it without any stopping/sliding in the middle of the turn- it’s harder to do but much “cleaner”. Have you watched my Outside edge stop tutorial?

[@kyleSTI]

@@MarcelsHockeySchool yeah, I had to re-watch it to see what I've forgotten. trying to build up that commitment to lean and turn is the thing I'm struggling with, for some reason my brain keeps telling me my ankle is going to buckle underneath me. also haven't been on the ice in my own skate for months now. just got them back from bauer.

Hi, I already have one out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n52Xhqaif7uIh5o Punch turn is just basically a fancy name for a tight turn

Hi, you are fantastic the way you learn how to skate for beginner. I struggle with my hockey stop it doesn t look great tbh, can you detail the way to turn your hip and the little hop you do before turning your hip. My problem is I m doing the same than skiing and sometime my heel arrive first Thanks a lot

[@MarcelsHockeySchool]

Thanks! Hmmm….well I don’t really think about turning my hips- I think it’s easier to start by thinking about turning the foot. With the hop, don’t really try to hop, just try to release a bit of weight from your skates. It’s like preparing for a hop but then not actually hopping.

Explained super well, thank you Bro..Exactly my talk ... many drive too stiffly ... and get much better when you crouch ... more power ... better hold on the skates! ... greetings ralle

Thanks Ralle!

My friend Bernie works with Bridgeport and he tells everyone to swing the head around, stagger the feet, lead the turning knee forward. Keep the upper body aligned and do not over lean with the shoulders because it will lead to the player being pushed over much more easily
