iTrain Hockey Backward Skating Training Intensive

[@Jkw211]

This guy is a GREAT teacher.

[@aaronwhite1786]

This is a 4 year old comment, but I've since had the pleasure of taking one of his classes in person, and he's just as great in person. Works well with kids but also doesn't make the adults there from beer league feel like they are out of place at all. Definitely worth the time and sore legs.

[@isaboteur2562]

Im 45 and have been playing hockey since i was 6, NEVER had a backwards skating lesson like this!!! Hes a Phenomenal teacher

I thought you were stuttering when you said c-cut

[@iQ-rq8bm]

[@yogibearstie]

This brings me back to hockey camps at the University of British Columbia. Nothing improved my game more, and this guy is even better. Best hockey teacher I have ever seen.

I don't know how you can create a tutorial with instructions clearer than this one. Big thanks!

[@PhotoSlash]

thank God a GOOD video about backward crossovers. Anyway C-cuts are merely visible during the full backward crossovers performance. it looks like the inside leg does all the job.

[@valupackgaming7814]

I wish I could like this more than just once! The instructions in this video are exactly what I've been needing! I cannot wait to start practicing all of this! Thank you so much for such an amazing step by step video!!!!

[@barbarahipp94]

As a figure skater, I completely approve of these cross overs. Great focus on the c cut to get power and then the toe kick to get power again. I'm now coaching power skating for youth hockey and this video was helpful for me to see how figure skating cross overs translate to hockey cross overs and communicate with my players better.

[@fencesitter2300]

I can't afford to pay for the membership, but from the videos posted to youtube I have been able to really help my son perfect his skating technique. This guy is the man when it comes to teaching kids how to skate. He is better than all the camps I put my son in during the summer. I really wished he had a program here in London.

[@itrainhockey]

iTrain Hockey has scheduled a camp in London this May 10th 2022 6-9pm! Link: itrainhockey.com/product/london-camp/ 19 spots left. See you on the ice!

[@fencesitter2300]

I used these drills and techniques to teach my 7 year old son how to do backwards crossovers. After about 8 hours of instruction he is now able to do backwards crossovers very very well. In fact, there are kids on his hockey team (major novice) who have been skating for 3-4 years (my son has only been skating for about 11 months), and he is the only one on his team who can really skate backwards well. Sean is a master instructor and if you really want to improve your skating, he is the man to teach you! Thanks Sean!

[@itrainhockey]

Fencesitter wow! Thank you so much for this! I’m so happy to know you and your son benefitted from this training video! Keep in touch :)

[@charles8844]

Started playing hockey as an adult and wish I'd found your videos a couple years ago.. watched a ton the last few weeks and already my teammates have been commenting that I am improving. Thanks so much Sean! And I know you've heard it a bunch but your instructional skills are top notch :)

Wherever you are in Canada, an icerink always feels like home.

[@itrainhockey]

So true!

[@811birch]

Just what i was looking for!!! Great job with explaining the "baby steps" to learning backwards crossovers. Can't wait to get on the ice to get started!!!!!!

[@yggdrasil9039]

This is incredibly useful - decent long video with long demonstrations, showing the whole action multiple times.

[@yalebaker7976]

I started skating a couple years ago and now I’m absolutely obsessed. With the help of your videos I’ve learned backwards crossovers and the feeling is like magic. I simply cannot get enough, I’ll skate for hours straight. Everyone at my tiny little local rink thinks I’m crazy! Thank you so much.

[@itrainhockey]

Woohoo!! This is fantastic! Backwards skating can feel so freeing can’t it? :) I’m so happy for you!

[@yalebaker7976]

@@itrainhockey the way you explained the c cut by showing how your wrist would turn over if you were writing a c on a white board is what did it for me. Sometimes other skaters will ask me how I do it and I can’t explain it because I’m a terrible communicator so I just refer them to this video.

[@gregcook6838]

The best crossovers lesson. Thanks a lot. Your hints let me do crossovers at last.

[@miguellan6281]

Best video for backward crossover!

[@oysterboy9]

As I develop my backward skating skills, I'll keep coming back to this video to keep me on track with great form. Really, really solid reference video. Thank you!

[@HockeyKid.12]

Thanks for making this awesome video! My backward crossovers will be great!!

[@foxphoenix3170]

Merci beaucoup pour toutes tes videos l'ami. Tu expliques vraiment bien et le fait de décomposer chaque mouvement en corrigeant les éventuelles mauvais mouvements est vraiment EXCELLENT!! Merci de ton aide encore une fois.

[@PIC18F]

Hi, I like your videos. You really work hard on analysing skating. I'm self taught myself and I'd like to share with you what I think the best backward cross over technique is. No one I no does this. As you said your outside skate need to do a third circle more or less. That's the most important bit. However the best what to get power in this situation is to rotate your upper body such that it counter-rotates with the circle performed by the outside skate. Figure skaters do not do this because they are taught to keep the bodies straight and hockey skaters do not do this because they want to keep their stick in the same relative position. I can absolutely guarantee you though that if you are looking towards the outside when you place your outside skate forward and then end up looking backwards when your outside skate has finished its movement then you generate much more power and perform a smaller turning circle. The down side to this is that your head and your stick must move from side to side.

[@videogameplayer0552]

This is the video that taught me how to do backwards crossovers. I watched this when I started playing hockey, and I’m not so good at backwards crossovers, I can go at top speed. Thank you so much.

[@dagger4442]

Thanks for teaching me to skate backwards! Starting to feel second nature.

[@HockeyKid.12]

You are a great hockey coach! Thanks for teaching me this stuff! Good job 👍

[@carlel4219]

Hi, Other coaches say that turning both shoulders into the direction that you are skating into would give you better stability and control when doing backward crossovers. You mention swinging your arms.

[@adrienner6701]

Thanks you Mr Sean! My coach always forced me to lift up my foot immediately to do crossovers but when I watch your video here, I can get it to the flow and more smooth step by step crossovers than he taught me. Great video!

[@itrainhockey]

[@branislavnikolic]

The best backward crossover explanation ever! Thanx!

[@vakke]

These videos are a life saver! Im still practicing and holding the balance is the most difficult. Seems that I'm having way too much weight on the toes and not the middle part of the foot and therefore i cannot hold the crossover.

[@Mellowcatden]

Thank you, Sean. Repeated this vid at least 20 times. Never seen another backwards crossover video broken down to this extend. Now I can finally do it with the different sounds of the outside and inside edges.

[@edwardfaza752]

Perfect scate and excellent work

[@mwont]

Will try that today!

[@latifkasim9454]

Sean you're an great instructor. Thoroughly clear drills instructions. I started skating again after a 15 years pause and have improved significantly in just two weeks following your instrutions. Keep going your channel is great.

Buy the ITrain video system. He does an AMAZING job!

[@RaphaelKaufmann]

Hi Anthony, did you buy it? Why would you recommend it to friends? I'm interested but I would appreciate the feedback of an actual client. Cheers!

[@Aviation_Professional]

@@RaphaelKaufmann I did purchase it. I'm 54 years old live in Florida, play hockey 2x a week and absolutely love the format and quality of instruction. One thing is he always points out the mistakes that are common and I have them all. Lol. Best 99$ I have spent in a long time. My grandkids live in Toronto and I would love for them to learn in this format!

[@tomh888]

Hi Raphael, I purchased it as well to practice myself just for fun and to have some top noch video resources for my son as he develops more and more technical skills. It is an extremely comprehensive library that is still growing. I have not seen anything similar for that price and it is highly valuable for getting detailed break downs of complex drills

[@RaphaelKaufmann]

@@Aviation_Professional thanks for your feedback, I appreciate. I'm 46, live in Strasbourg, France, and started ice hockey only 3 years ago. On my first year, a coach taught adult beginners and I learned a great deal. Since that weekly session was canceled, we have had to rely a bit more on hockey camps and videos on KZbin. I am definitely going to purchase the subscription, which I hope will help me now that I find myself teaching the new adult beginners 😊. Cheers!

[@RaphaelKaufmann]

@@tomh888 I think you're right, I haven't seen anything comparable on the Net. And you seem to both agree that it is good value for money. Can subscribers actually download the videos from the iTrain website?

What do you do if you have trouble crossing over certain legs because you're not flexible enough to move it to those degrees. How would you work on that where you can actually cross over legs easier
