[thegame20024]

WOW....this guy OWNS, he would kill most people if this were a skills comp

[gameerboy4]

i have to do these drills

[KittyGetAway]

I am not a horrible skater, nor do I play on a hcokey team, but this guy is awesome and I wish I had a 1/4 of even a 1/4 of his talent. I wish so much, more than a PONY that I could cross over left/right and sharp turn. IF anyone could add tips to this Video I would appreciate it. IE> When you cross over, where do you bear the weight - in or outer leg? or sharp turn, what's the best tips & tricks, weight bearing, foot to heal, heal to toe? hand on ice rotating? Anyone and id really appreciate it

[Mikenaf123]

If you're trying to learn to crossover, might I recommend putting alot of practice time into rollerblade crossovers? It'll teach you proper movement and weight placement, and is one of the few things that transfers well to ice. This way, you're not wasting valueable ice time practicing this. I remember the first time doing a backwards crossover, scary as heck! Put one foot over the other, no matter how slowly, and eventually you'll have it. The weight is on the inside of your blade.

[Mikenaf123]

You shouldn't be on your heal at all for a forward crossover. Middle blade to toe, that's it. Weight on the inside blade of the turn. Weight is beared on the inner leg, but with a crossover, the goal is for your outer leg to momentarily become the inner leg, and therefore bear the brunt of your weight for a short moment.

[Setpblock]

couldn't be better than that

[leggysucks]

i didn't see anything

[aljdbright]

Is this like hockey sounds, bad Aerosmith and a Spinal Tap twist? Non-more black?

[Setpblock]

wow.. shit... good through

[jonaskates12ahh]

is that at the tantallon hockey rink in nova scotia

[Kontlont]

I love skating, I don't play ice hockey becuase it's too far away for me, but I already skate at hockey skates for 10 years, its so fun to pwn nub skaters on ice :P

I'm enjoying my new CCM Vector 6 skates now :)

[rfbctown]

stop it....go play more video games kid...this is the real world...normal people dont use "pwn" "nub"....just stop it

[Kontlont]

Right.

[postmann999]

great SKATING drills.....!

[mo8blazer]

good skater, there are better on youtube (see perfect skater) but more importantly, lets see that with a puck! It's a lot different

[DeAnO94]

practice without a puck to begin with because you want to focus on technique first. Then use puck afterwards.

[scumatron]

good video, got some funny trash talk posts haha

[takeyourpill]

why is anything talking shit about his skating? does it look like he is skating at his max speed? look at effortless he looks. former NHL player. go back to your counter-clockwise public skate session.

[LittleA333]

Theres no puck brah!!!! you aint shit till you can puck handle... try getting some real skills fuckin pussy.

[sk8terAde]

what bitch

[PureLtFan]

rofl noob it said "hockey skating practise" and that means hes showing skating not stickhandling so stfu

[sniperstar]

u obviously haven't read the description it say former NHLer Alan May demonstrating skating i think a former NHLer could probably stick handle too u should STFU

[MikeAnthony36]

absolutely no velocity around the corners

[thescrounger1]

He has hockey hair. He has to be a former pro.

[hockeyguypro2000s]

lol he does to...dam ill be like that some day.. :-(

[punk123455]

im dizzy

[spizzoto]

HA Ha, I checked out your vids MA36- I really love the one thats 46 secs long where you can hear you hit the boards after passing the camera, and the 21 sec one where you stumble going backwards too....lol bender

[MikeAnthony36]

im glad you studied them so much. what you see is the best skater in the world.

[mikeanthony37]

you still havent posted any videos yet. And wtf is a bender?

[Mike9505]

Sorry I'm low on cash, so instead of taking private lessons I'm watching this video about 100 times. Great skating !!!

[MikeAnthony36]

whatever. Look at my vids. Id smoke him. And id whoop your fag ass

[HockeySk8er]

no you wouldnt. You might be able to skate fast in a circle, but try following him around the cones, i guarantee you'd lose, or how bout u post something that isnt just skating in circles.

[transws6am]

whoop his ass? How about you try seeing the inside of a weight room first. You look like a pipecleaner.

[MikeAnthony36]

yeah i just got done cleaning mine. You need yours cleaned too?

[transws6am]

The whole board is laughing at you. Give it up... you come off as a skill-less clown.

[MikeAnthony36]

yeah..lets see ive been ice skating for 6 years and am already level 3 hockey official..yeah thats pretty skill-less

[aragon0801]

hey bucball36 "I AM SPEEDSKATER" more like he is speed skater and he would woop ur fag ass

[amlbrn]

Hey,Victor. You are looking great, and very good promotion video. Type it " Yuri Ushakov "

[btrfly25]

i first skated since i was 7 i love skating! i did speedskating for a year, then figure skating and now its my second year with hockey skates and playing hockey.

[gamakatzu]

so gay...

[btrfly25]

figure skaters are really good too

[btrfly25]

he's in the nhl and they skate perfect, i think.

[btrfly25]

wow, have you seen anyone skate better? i haven't.

[bucball36]

yeah i have

[bucball36]

yeah look at my vids. Im faster. Im just not doing all the fancy stuff

[i001100i]

"all the fancy stuff" is part of being a good skater in hockey. These are drills, fool. Are you two years old?

[jspesh]

omg u all suck lmao aol! speed skater omg fukin faggot lol dont mess with me slag

[bucball36]

what bitch?

[bucball36]

ill whoop your fag ass. I AM SPEEDSKATER

[hysperiona]

Dude, Shut up, He would so kick your ass at skating anyday...

[MikeAnthony36]

whatever you may want to take a better look at my speed compared to his

[LetsGoPens16]

I looked at your videos. You are NO NHL'er. You look like every other guy at pickup. Sorry. Try getting out of NC and play.

[LetsGoPens16]

Directed to MA36, not this guy. He got jump.

[sk8terAde]

you talkin about me? I dont play, i just ref. I got jump

[LetsGoPens16]

No, that ain't jump. You may impress your friends, but that don't fly elsewhere.

[hockeydude2k7]

bet u couldnt turn like he could tho fag

[progoalie4]

speed skating lmfao!! thats the fucken gayest thing ever hahahahahahah ide pwn u in skating ch33b!!!

[MikeAnthony36]

sure. Wheres your videos? Look at mine and tell me you seen a better skater punk

[progoalie4]

buddy take it in the ass

[upsilone]

this guy needs to sharpen his skates at the end of every training.

[priddis1000]

The guy skating is Allan May, ex NHL'er

[darkstarskating]

fuck bucball36 aww yeh im a speed skater my ass your heaps shit old man just give it up you get skate a large circle wow can u manuever like this guy probably not so shut the fuck off and give up your shit

[bucball36]

all fancy stuff. Gets you nowhere in a game. My videos show real speed. Take a look

[eatsleepGodhockey]

dude..the guy is pro..

[bucball36]

well who do you think is faster? me or him?

[HockeySk8er]

Its not just speed, you have to be able to brake, and turn sharply, i.e. aggility, whats the point in just going fast if you can't turn round corners. And honestly in hockey this guy would run circles around you.

[bucball36]

but not in a race. Look at his baby steps around the corners and then look at mine. BIG difference. I generate way more speed. Whos stride would you rather have? Anyway ive only been on hockey skates for 2 years. Hes been skating probly since 5 just like all the nhl players.

[GFrider12345]

I would much rather have a hockey players stride. Plus his babys steps or whatever you want to call them are for quick direction changes. dumbass. so dont mess with hockey players bitch. all you do is skate in a big circle while wearing spandex.

[bucball36]

no actually i think olympic speedskating is gay. This dude is a great skater i admit. Im only a hockey refg.

[bucball36]

what..ill not only mess with you, ill stomp your fagget ass. Show me something on video if your so great

[Funkyme4]

and he's doin better then you

[bucball36]

thats why ill be a nhl ref in two years. Ive only been skating on ice for 3. So you tell me who can skate that good for being on the ice for only 3 years

[hysperiona]

I agree

[Hockeyjax89]

I've seen your videos. You're exceptionally unimpressive. Quit hyping yourself on other peoples videos. People might actually skate worse after seeing you skate.

[bucball36]

yeah okay

[bucball36]

i could make this idiot a lot faster around the corners. I am a speedskating instructor and have won the quad nationals before. I think i know what im talking about punk

[xxStoxx]

no1 fucking cares, its over youtube. so obviously its not true.

[GFrider12345]

fuck you asshole

[Hockeyjax89]

Doesn't mean people want to hear you brag about yourself.
