this needs more views. Great exercises and variations to your typical "edge" drills as well as actual agility drills that apply to game situations. Not overly complex. Simple concepts that even the PROS work on. Thank you for this free information!
I've watched a lot hockey videos, and this is easily the best one yet. Verbal play by play plus Kevin is executing at a speed my brain can actually process. Cheers and thank you!!
Kevin, Thank you so much. This demonstration of edgework and skating skills is a masterpiece. Players, no need to continue searching for edgework videos. Master these skills and you will be skating at a very high level.
There's a few in there I'd love my coach to incorporate, partly for me to improve, but also to show some of the other players on my ice hockey team they are lacking despite how much the brag. I like the last one as both a skill and a fitness based drill in one. Some of these I used to do while messing about on roller hockey sessions or public roller skating sessions, so it's nice to see they are useful :)
Kevin, I'm wondering if you could share your thoughts on the blade profile we should use for these drills, the height of the blade, and the hollow. I find that these drills are easier to do with a stock 10' radius rather then any radius less than 9' in the front and higher than 10' in the back. I also find it a bit of a challenge on the newer 21mm runners. I'm catches edges all the time. I'm thinking that the older runners (like 18mm or less) are better for doing these drills. Lastly, I'm finding the drills to be easier with a more shallow hollow than the traditional 1/2". I'm finding them easier to do on a 5/8", but of course that depends on your size and weight. Am on on the right track?
Honestly depends on stiffness of the boot. Modern boot doesn’t give over time as quickly as leather boots But typically the first one. Maybe second or third. The reason is to allow more ankle mobility. “Weak ankles” attributed chiefly poorly fitted skated. I have new bauer Bauers new boot (2022) has “slits” between eyelets (maybe for more flex?). Top vapor model has “flex pad” (green in color) above skate holder. It flex as well..I still keep top eyelet off. Crazy good mobility. Still this is one of best examples for “commoners” to get great edge work to maximize said boots. ✌🏻

Could I see a list of all these skating drills?
AMAZING VIDEO! I would love to know how tight and how high on the ankle this guy laces his skates??? Anybody can find that intel for me? 🙏🏻😌
I'm betting he's relatively loose in the top 2-3 eyelets in order get the required ankle flexion.
