@EskayGFX I would advise against going too slow when learning how to stop. I think it's actually much harder to try to do a hockey stop when you're going extremely slow. Try going a bit faster. Also, this will probably sound strange, but try not to think about it. All you're really doing is turning your skates and letting your momentum dig in and stop for you, thinking too much often causes people to dig in too much without realizing it. Good luck, hope this helps.
I can understand that its easier to shave the ice when holding the board because you're not pressing on the blades as much, but when you're skating to a stop, how can you avoid putting so much weight on the blades and not dig into the ice?
im having trouble actually stopping. i cant do the stop by pushing your feet out, but i can do a hockey stop standing still. when i try to move and do a hockey stop, though, i cant, because my skates dig in too much. even moving extremely slow, i cant seem to get the spray, i just abruptly stop, and get jerked forward. if anyone has any advise, it would be much appreciated.
hi! i have a problem with the hockey stop. Maybe you can help me out.. It feels like i do the whole stop with the outside edge of my weaker foot and milliseconds AFTER that my forefoot dont carve, but just digs in the ice.. I have played in a hobbyteam about ten years ago and for two weeks im back on the ice but i learned it the wrong way back then and i cant get it right. Maybe you have some tips for me.
Hey. Can you tell me how to ice higher. I do all the steps you talk about and all the great tips you have. I ice alright, My ice goes straight and fast. i want it to go higher and to push more ice. If you can please help me, thanx

@TheSideHQ Make sure your knees are bent and you're putting more effort and pressure into the stop.
