How AAA Players Establish Skating Edges

[@Longspout15]

I don’t even play hockey but something about the way he articulates the art of skating and his instruction is just awesome.

[@JonPosadas]

*Breaks his ankle* "Who heard that sound?"

[@scissorsharp9032]

That poor ice sounds like my back when I lay on a tennis ball

[@moefritz9568]

Lol, sounds like all my joints after a bender

[@holymoses43]

Your videos are a goldmine for hockey players, thank you!

[@foxmulder3785]

Yes, he has a lot of helpful videos but that one is wrong. Blade has most efficient grip with ice when it has full contact with ice. When you put your skate on toe or heel you just increase pressure in paticular point of ice because of that you hear cracking sound. Especially it is dangerous on high speed in that case you just lose your edges and smash to a board🤷‍♀️

[@Rossanderson-zm7ck]

Idk if I’m wrong but I think the emphasis on the toe/heal area was so you could hear it for emphasis for the kids he’s teaching might be wrong but a different perspective I’m no pro by any means tho so take this as you like

[@khuo0219]

He loves skating so much, I'd love to get trained by someone like that

[@1AlexanderCole]

I had a spinal cord injury I’ve worked really long and hard to come back from. I’m finally starting to work on getting comfortable with my outside edges. Thought I was doing pretty well today until I caught it and went down while refereeing. Had to signal a good goal from my knees 😂

[@1AlexanderCole]

But then I got to signal a Michigan goal! kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpC8kGmog6lqiqc

[@Saintbow]

I was hit from behind and woke up face first into the ice. We had some bush league ref's for that game and they only called a 2. Next morning, I was paralyzed in the left leg, suffered a few crushed discs both in lower back and neck, permanent nerve damage, and a decent concussion from the hit. The surgeon and doctors told me I could never play hockey again. It took me roughly 5 years to learn how to scrunch my toes on the left side. a lot of rehab got me most of my mobility back, but certain things like putting a sock on the left side is a no go. Lastly, dear god the pain. The nerve pain mixed with the back pain now is a type of pain I wish on no one. Here is the shit kicker, since the ref's only called a 2, the player who did the dirty hit was not found liable in any sense. Even USA hockey said they could not help, even though they are an acting supplemental insurance for hockey players. My whole career was gone in an instant. I was a player, a coach, certified zamboni driver, and ice rink manager, all gone. It's good to hear you made it back to the ice!

[@nicklengyel6710]

You are doing a fabulous job with your teachings.

[@Hdthevoice]

Not sure how this guy got in my feed…HOWEVER, I now want to see a documentary, or series, or something. He’s old school in the way he talks and that’s needed today. Direct speech, almost zero emotion, focused attention, and not one ‘uh’, or ‘umm’, in the three shorts that I’ve seen so far. Well done Coach!

[@mitchsmith4785]

Don't pay coaches until they all coach like this.

[@benjaminallen6469]

Most coaches don't get paid...

Who does cutting in the kitchen? _ _ _ _ _ ☕️

[@konanoobiemaster]

coach: "who does cutting in the kitchen?" 7 y/olds: "seriously?"

[@j.d.1488]

When I was a kid (10-11) in a clinic session, we had a a young teenage figure skater come in to teach us about skating. We all giggled and thought how is this girl going to teach us to be better hockey players. Well man o man she killed us and we all learned about edges that day.

[@kronosis2767]

I have never played hockey before in my life but as a coach for a different sport… the way you deliver information is simply peak efficiency

[@imnotbenavery9220]

I subscribed and never have played hockey, this feels like some masterclass level instruction

[@dana102083]

Me too lol 😊

[@gabrieladams1790]

“…and now pick up your other foouh”

and go down to Timmy's bui pick up some double doubles and timbits for the team. lmao he seems like from the east coast of Canada, doesn't even sound weird to me my grandma was nova scotian im in ontario but the internet has let me know that Canadian accent is strong ehh🤣

Win is great, but still so many giveaways in their own zone, Lyon is absolutely carrying this squad. I just hope with the wins that Steve makes some moves before the deadline.

I know nothing about hockey, but I know this guy can coach. Phenomenal Coach!

[@prospera6330]

"I got some grip baby" sounds like it could be a quote from the Might Ducks movies lol

[@NightstalkerX5]

This guys is amazing! Wish he would do a tour to Los Angeles or Orange County, CA area! Come to our Irvine Rink man! Youll have so many people sign up!

[@daotran2300]

Not sure what he’s talking about. But it sounds convincing 😂

[@sawsaurus2779]

If I’m correct the next step is actually you don’t want the sound because you want to cut through the ice like butter and kinda glide (when turning) this reduces friction.

[@jonkessler4367]

Awesome coaching and edge work!!!

[@FalloutUrMum]

I can't wait to try this out... as soon as I can afford hockey equipment

[@davidantl9583]

[@andy_italia]

Love your videos! Just a quick question, Are you not supposed to make any sounds? So the more silent you skate the better the movement? I was just thinking when you are skating forward and you are supposed to not make any gripping sounds… a bit confused 🫤… thank you 🙏🏻

[@ccmTopher34]

Rip means grip 🤙

[@boundbyhonor8382]

oh....this isn't the kind of edging i was looking for.....good info though!

[@joeyturpijn2291]

i get the skate sharpner to remove outside edge

[@alexmilligan392]

the reason you have grip is because you sharpen your skates like 10 times.

[@vrhockeyreborn]

Isn’t destroying the ice means that more energy being absorbed and transferred to break the ice surface, instead of return with the spring reaction back to your legs for next strides?

[@mummyyjuice5413]

There’s a reason you’re slower on dull skates, this power skating instructor knows what he’s talking about

[@vrhockeyreborn]

@@mummyyjuice5413 well you actually not slower on a dull skates, you slower if you lost your edges - yes, but you also slower if your skates sharpened too deep.

[@The_Copper_River_Lightningbolt]

Did you do a camp in Alaska?

[@Soleftendright]

Ice ASMR 😃

[@isaacrousu8449]

This some cap. “Gripping the ice” actually slows you down, you don’t want to hear the ice crunch like that because it means you are crushing the ice and not gliding. When you glide on the ice that is what allow you to unlock your full skating potential. Think about it, would you rather crush ice or glide on top?

[@opita_opica]

try to jump with flat feet and then jump using feet

[@richardindritz9982]

Excellent teacher!

[@EDMFamilyMedicine]

There are 3 edges inside, outside, and flat

"How AAA hockey players break their ankles"

[@Trogore]

I think if I put my foot at that angle, i l just fucking loose it

[@PlPPS]

But my girlfriend has grip and she doesn’t make a rip sound

[@RedIce202]

Gotta increase your hand strength rookie

[@GP-ed1ti]

Sadly, they only teach this at the highest levels of hockey. Edging should be taught and practiced for the first 12 months of a child's skating/hockey journey.

[@thepsychedeliccat896]

Theres 3 edges 1 inside 2 outside 3 glide

This is pretty interesting.

Destructive hockey myth: tight laces and boot stiffness required to support ankles while skating. Rough estimate: 95% of youth players [parents] tie their skates too tight.

Making skating complicating IMO

[@AshtrayAnnie]

I just find it funny that anyone would need to be taught this way. If you think Bobby Orr had someone telling him to skate like this, you thought wrong lol. The majority of kids who are gonna make it to the NHL or be known for their skating abilities in general, don’t have to be taught it. It comes naturally. 😂

The steel is about a 1/8-1/4” thick. The bottom of the blade against the ice is sharpened into the shape of an upside down u.
