Kevin Muller breaks down steps to develop the cross-under push of the cross-over in this video by M2 Hockey & HockeyShare.com. For more videos, visit www.hockeyshare.com/videos
Thanks! In response to your questions: 1) This is usually caused by not getting enough extension of the ankle, or if the boot is hitting the ice. Both can be caused by improper knee bend maintenance throughout the execution of the push. 2) You are correct - most crossovers in game scenarios are executed at higher tempos. The higher speed execution becomes much easier as you master the fundamental techniques behind the skill. Thanks for watching!
Hi Kevin your videos are great! I got a question~ For the demonstration at 3:39, when I extend my left leg under my right, I always got on my left leg toe pick and could not keep sliding or bring it back out, and at the same time I cannot keep my right leg flat, my right leg keeps going onto the inner edge so my whole body starts turning left. Any idea how I can improve it..?
Its amazing how a video made 7 years ago solved a major problem I have today.
woah 7 years
Oh my god. The subtle detail on how to really dig. Thank you🎉

Awsome video THANK YOU! But your diction... :) when you show the glide at 1:53 is it "from the front of the foot to the bottom"? Or back? Thank you
Great exercise drill.
Great theory, nice explanation, but... where is SIMPLE DEMONSTRATION IN ACTION?
No such thing as a cross under

grace Law I have this same issue on the opposite side. I'm awful on my right side outside edge.
I see this is from two years ago, but did you figure it out?
I am transitioning from roller to ice and find your explanations very helpful.
