Lets face it In the fast paced sport of hockey, even the greatest passing, shooting, and stickhandling skills cant make up for a lack of skating ability. Players who dont have total control on the ice have to work harder to accomplish every task. The High Performance Skating for Hockey video is the perfect instructional tool for coaches and players who want to develop greater balance, speed, power, and agility. Featuring Coach Steve Cady—the foremost skating expert for the Huron Hockey School and a former Olympic Development trainer—the High Performance Skating for Hockey video shows coaches how to set up and teach skating drills and shows players how to perform essential skills. This high action video presents the same skating workout activities performed by the many NHL players who consult Coach Cady in the off season. Youll find 35 drills that focus on balance and agility, forward and backward skating, starts, stops, turns, and pivots—plus key points for mastering each skill and tips for overcoming common problems. The drills show how to achieve better balance and greater power—without working any harder—by • learning where to center body weight over each skate for various skills, • developing proper upper and lower body alignment for maximum performance and efficiency, and • improving strength and quickness. With the High Performance Skating for Hockey video, even the most experienced players can fine tune their skating skills—so they can focus more on puck control and scoring.
