Hockey Training Edge Work

🏒 Welcome to our latest UA-cam video where we dive deep into skating and edge work particularly mastering the scooter, a crucial mechanic for every hockey player aiming to enhance their puck protection and deception on the ice. Downhill skating coach Spencer White ‪@TheDownhillSkater‬ talks you through this game changing mechanic from the Downhill Skating System.
🔍 What is the Scooter?
The scooter combines a 10 and 2 stance with an outside roll, a simple yet effective technique. Highlighted through examples such as Nico Hischier's flawless execution, the scooter relies heavily on the outside edge rule of the front foot. This technique creates an "outside edge hip wall," offering a robust defense against opponents.
🚀 Progressing Your Game:
Start by getting comfortable with a regular 10 and 2 in an Infinity flow pattern.
Progress to integrating a corkscrew into your 10 and 2 in a linear pattern.
Focus on the outside edge rolls, working your way up from the inside edge, and emphasize feeling over speed.
Combine these elements to master the scooter, practicing on both sides to ensure versatility.
🎥 Common Challenges and Solutions:
Many players struggle with rolling to the outside edge or mistakenly believe they are when they're not. Through comparisons and recommended self-filming, we illustrate how to identify and correct these issues, enhancing your technique and deception on the ice.

This is a fantastic breakdown! Time to practice and make those hips dance!

[@Train2point0]

[@bblankenship787]

Go, Spencer!! Great work as usual.

[@TheDowntownToronto]

Wow Scooter McGavin over here 🤙

[@jugglejazz]

Nice video! This move is a lot like the Nelson in slalom skating.

[@Train2point0]

Thank you 👍

[@TheHappybilmore]

this is fine, but I just do not understand why people do not hit as much in the NHL. In a couple the defender isn't even skating. The one example in here the guy just swings his stick and he is no where near him. Are these defenders that bad or are they just letting them keep the puck?

[@Train2point0]

The problem is it's hard for the defenders to read the puck carrier from the deception of the scooter.
