@MatD1726 Your weight should be completely centered. Just like if you are playing defense watching the play, you wouldn't want to lean forward because then they could get around you easier and you have less of a range of view. Instead of leaning forward to get the extra cut into the ice, keep your weight centered and take a bigger cross over step to get that deeper angle of your skate digging into the ice. This will cover more ice, give you more grip, and give you better speed on the push off.
Where is your weight supposed to be on a backwards crossover? Part of my problem is I am leaning too forward, I think. I find my weight is mostly on my toes and between that and leaning forward, I can hit a few strides then feel like I am going to fall over. Is my weight supposed to be more on the middle of my skate, or on my heels?
@Luigi555551 compare, your strong side with your weak and find out what your doing wrong, if it's the same try practising the weak side more, one cross over to the right 2-3 to the leftthat's how i do it and it works fine for me
You Guys are the BEST. Thanks So Much for posting these Videos. I use them all the timewith my High School Team. I do them on ice for them but the Videos are perfect forthem to mentally prepare.
@al3xand3rr22 - Normally I have red, but the pink laces are in honor of one of the mothers on my team who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. Our entire team wears them. We also have a breast cancer survivor mother on our team. HockeyShare makes annual donations to different charities for cancer support - last year was NHL's Hockey Fights Cancer. This year it was a local organization.
@al3xand3rr22 If you were a hockey player you wouldnt knock pink laces because you would know that there to support the fight aginst breast cancer Dipshit.....

@al3xand3rr22 What's wrong with pink? Not manly enough to wear pink yourself?
