Hockey Stop: the Two Biggest Mistakes and How to Fix Them
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.พ. 2021
- When I released my first hockey stop tutorial three years ago, I received a lot of great feedback, but also a lot of questions from skaters who were still struggling to stop on ice. By far the two most common problems people were still have with stopping were:
1. Skating a curve instead of stopping, and
2. The back leg hanging/getting caught in the ice.
In this video, I show you what causes these two most common problems when doing a hockey stopping, and of course, also how to fix them, so that you can come to a stop with ease!

What an amazing explanation. The heel and toe explanation is gold for understanding what you need to do and why.
Thanks and I’m glad that I could help out!
Bruhhhhhh your explanation hit the spot dude
Best breakdown of the stop I've ever seen. Great teaching video!
Thanks so much :)
I agree totally!! 43 years old and still trying to figure out this stopping thing 😀
@@herbjergens6350 you’ll figure it out! Just keep working on it!
@@herbjergens6350 That's cause you like most people watching this didn't start skating when you're young. Bozo.
@@herbjergens6350 if your 43 and I’m 16 that means I’ve got at least another 27 years before I learn it. 😂😂
What I got from this:
- Stay low, knees bent
- weight on middle to front part of skate
- front foot stops with inside edge, back foot stops with outside edge
Tips that I got from my brother:
- keep your eyes angled up, that way you don’t tip forward
- stay low (good to see it still stands)
Good stuff👍 I have no clue what my eyes do when I stop. I’ll have to see next time!
Ive been a roller player all my life so I’m used to my weight in my heels when I stop. I’ve watched many videos to explain how to properly stop on ice, but this video by far is the best. I can’t wait to try this out now!
Thank you! Also good for me to know that you need to use your heels to stop on rollerblades, because I’m trying to learn that and have no clue how😂
@@MarcelsHockeySchool Check out Bill Stoppard's tutorials. Keep an eye on the back foot and make sure you keep it under your hips throughout the slide. My input is that elbow pads are a must when you're learning as you may tip before you slide.
@@stephenklump2421 I’ve seen a few of his and they’re really good. I’ll try again this summer.
Thanks for all these videos, I'm 41 and will start skating this year as I've moved to Canada and I want my kid to learn too.
Your welcome! Have fun!
Lifting the back leg was such an eye opener for me. I was always able to hockey stop on the front leg, but can't figure out what to do with the back leg. This helped a lot!
Yeah I forgot I actually did that until I watched myself stopping😃Glad I could help out!
"hope you like this video" dude, I love it. Best video on the subject I've come across. Thanks for being so thorough throughout the entire video. You managed to make me able to visualize what I need to work on which for me is a complete game changer.
Thanks a lot! Glad I could help you out!
This is super helpful, Even though I don’t struggle with stopping I never really understand how the toe shoves the ice and heels glide and turn, now I do and this will help me control with stopping and turning better. Also your English is very good for a Guy who speaks German
Thank you! Yeah it’s important to know some of the physics of skating so that you know what part of the blade to use.
Well, I’m Canadian, so I guess you could say that my German is pretty good for a guy who speaks English 😃
Bruh this is the most understanding video I have seen on how to hockey stop! I have watched 15 other hockey stop turtorials, but didn’t understand, THIS was the best I understand everything now! Thank you man, you should be really proud of your self or this video because this helped me so much and you are really good at explaning!!
Thanks so much for the compliments! Glad the video was easy to follow!
@@MarcelsHockeySchool 👌🏽❤️
Best description of the hockey stop, I’ve been following other tutorials and doing the mistakes you mentioned without knowing. Thank you so much!
You’re welcome! Glad I could help
you out!
Excellent video. Clear, concise & simple. 👍
Thank you very much!
Great explanation, Marcel! Thank you so much!!!
You’re most welcome!
Excellent and thorough explanation can’t wait to put these tips in action. Hockey stop has been the bane of my existence but this year My kids and I are determined to learn it on the backyard rink I made! Thanks again man!
You’re welcome! Have fun on your rink!
This was an amazing video. From the explanation to the camera shots. Thank you!!!
You’re most welcome! Yeah when I have a backyard rink I have way more time to prepare my shots!
The best explain how to hockey stop! Perfect. Thank you!
You’re most welcome!
Thanks man! Very helpful and explanatory !
You're welcome! Glad I could help!
Thanks , awesome tutorial. Didn't know why my skates were digging in and not shaving the ice, but after this video I was able to finally do it the right way. Also when starting to learn it in the beginning don't turn both feet just the front to get a feel for that sliding motion, at least it helped me to get more comfortable before I started turning both. Now it's just all about practicing it to get comfortable with it.
Glad that I was able to help! Have fun practicing!
Great explication. Always had the problem with stopping in a curve instead of really stooping :)
yeah a lot of people have that. Glad I could help you out!
Thanks, Great explanation of the technique. Keep the vids coming!
Thanks, aprreciate it!
Love it dude. Just got back into hockey after a 10 year hiatus, definitely needed this refresher!
Glad I could help!
I looked at dozens of tutorials and I still didn't succeed, but this tutorial explains perfectly where we're going wrong, I finally succeeded, thank you!
You’re welcome! Glad I could help!
Best skating info EVER. Thank you !
You’re most welcome!
One of the best and simple stop explainers I've seen. Getting onto the ball of your foot/front of skate is critical
Thanks a lot!
Can’t wait to try that ! Thanks
You're most welcome!
This makes so much sense great video.
Thanks a lot!
Awesome video, I was looking for this kind of explanation! thank you
You’re welcome!
Thanks so much. Best explanation I've seen about how to stop, specially for those who have problems with the back leg when stopping. Regards from Spain.
You’re most welcome!
Fantastic coaching on this topic. I've skated for over 54 years and I never thought about the mechanics. Thank you!
You’re most welcome!
Well done! This helped immensely. Skated a lot and played a little as a kid, but 30 years of mainly inlines had caused my hockey stops to disappear. I needed the right nudges to reactivate old muscle memories and this video was the right one for that purpose.
That’s great to hear and I’m glad I could help!
love this video; learning to play hockey now, and I always seem to swing around in a circle when I stop. This guide clearly pointed out why that was happening, and how to fix it. Hopefully I'll get some ice time tomorrow and I can practice getting a full stop!
Glad I could help and I hope you can fix it!
Awesome explanation thanks!!!
You’re most welcome!
Thank you! Man, this is the best teaching video.
Thanks a lot! Glad I could help!
This was very helpful, thank you.
You're very welcome!
Thank you. This tutorial is grate!
Glad I could help!
Im a former 6'8'' 250lbs basketball player (play pro and semipro for 12yrs) who just started ice skating and going to play hockey beerleague in Czech rep. Its pretty hard with this body, but Im not quitting :)... This was by far the best explanation of the hockey stop I have ever watched. Thank you for it! :)
You’re welcome! It might be tough to learn, but then you’ll have big advantages because of you size and reach 💪
Thank you, great job on teaching
You’re welcome!
This vid actually teaches you how to do a hockey stop it's not like the other ones were they just tell you just the basics of the hockey slide this vid tells you all the specifics and i my myself I'm trying to learn how to do a hockey stop so this helped me a lot ty so much
You’re most welcome! Glad you liked the video!
Love it you are the master. Great video Thanks!
Thanks so much!
Excellent explanation...thanks 👍
You’re welcome!
Extremely helpful, Marcel. Thanks for posting this.
You're most welcome! Glad I could help!
It’s a very good thing that you made this video now I can actually try on the ice because idk what part of the blade it was thank youuuu smm!!!
Yeah it’s a super important thing to know! Glad I could help!
Great video. Thank you!
You’re most welcome!
Best video of hockey stopping I’ve seen this helped me ton awsome job
Thanks so much! Glad I could help!
Thanks for the advice. This is very useful and very detailed
You’re most welcome!
excellent explanation. thanks.
You’re most welcome!
Brilliantly done 👌🏾
Thanks a lot!
Great vid! Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Best one to show my kids....thank you
you're most welcome! Have fun!
Wieder mal sehr tool erkärt. Super. Und klasse Video gerade mit den Nahaufnahmen und Zeitlupe.
Danke schön! Ja die Zeitlupe und Close-Ups waren mir sehr wichtig!
Awesome video with great examples of each step. Will try this on the weekend!
Thanks and good luck!
Yes most videos never mention the weight on the front part of the blade. I found that out on my own. Your video is only one I’ve seen explain that. Thanks!
You're most welcome!
That was an amazing tutorial. Thank you.
Glad you liked it!
I am just barely learning ice after a summer of inline skates. I was really driving with my heels trying to initiate stops. So your explanation was awesome about the toe pressure. Tomorrow back to the ice and try this!! Also I love the rocker feel of the hockey skates! The turns are incredible.
Yeah it’s weird because so many things are very similar between inline and ice skating, but stopping is sooooo different.
Good luck✊
Appreciate to share this Valuable tip for stopping.
Glad I could help!
Thanks for breaking this down. Funny how I know how to hockey stop in skis but still trying to figure out how to do it on ice skates. Spot on regarding lifting leg up. Not yet comfortable in skates but do it all the time on skis.
Glad I could help! You’ll get it down soon!
Great analysis- and demonstrating problem v fix. Now I see why im losing my edge and dulling on back of inside blades.. ty!
You’re welcome!
I'm passt this stage a long time ago, yet thanks for sharing!!! 👍 👍 👍
You’re welcome! Yeah I try to get a good mix of more advanced as well as beginner vids!
Great Video! I realised recently that my front leg (outside leg) was doing all the work when I was stopping, making it impossible to learn things like Jam turns, etc. Now that I am trying to learn the proper form, I find the transition from leaning forward to leaning back to be the most difficult part. Thanks for the tips!
You’re welcome! Yeah getting on the back leg, and hence the outside edge, ist the toughest part for most people. Once you get that, other skills become easier
Very, very helpful!
Glad I could help!
I can’t say anything that hasn’t been said. Best tutorial for this by far. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for the nice words!
30 seconds into this video: this is the worst tutorial
Once the video ends: this tutorial has changed my life.
Great job explaining and demonstrating the nuance of shifting weight to the front of the blade to stop! 👏🏼
Haha glad you watched longer than 30😃 Just curious though: why did you hate the first 30 seconds so much?
You earned a follow my friend. Great description of a how to. Look forward to seeing your other vids.
Thanks! Glad you liked it💪
Very nice tips, thank u🙏
You’re welcome!
Very helpful! Nicely filmed as well!
Glad you liked it!
I'm 38 years old and have never been able to properly hockey stop. I now have an explanation and the confidence to try it this weekend. Thank you! Terrific explanation. Not too much information.
You’re welcome! I hope it works now for you!
Thanks brother. Very helpful
You’re welcome!
Thank you-----very good
You’re welcome!
Best explanation!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing! These two are exactly the mistakes I made.
You’re welcome! I’m glad that I could help you out!
Good video. I played around with this on the ice today. Made a small breakthrough. Hard to describe but I mentally focused on softening the inside leg and that somehow seemed to help me get it on the outside edge more naturally.
Glad you liked the vid, and great that you found something that helps you stop better!
Just watching this from my desk, this is my reaction YESSSSSSSSS! This makes so much sense can't wait to get out on the ice now.
Awesome!!! Have fun out there!
Great video, thanks
You're most welcome!
Amazing explanation.
Thank you!
Super Tutorial, wie alle von Dir! Hat mir sehr geholfen
Das freut mich sehr☺️
You've helped! Thank you
You’re welcome!
Best video that explains stop
Glad you liked it!
very good tutorial. learned lots
Glad I could help!
This is a really good video, thank you. I taught myself how to hockey stop on my strong side several years ago (pond/street/roller hockey experience only) and now I’m getting back into hockey to play ice hockey specifically. Well after going to a few open skates to get my mojo back, it seems I’ve forgotten something about hockey stopping and embarrassed myself being one of the best skaters at the open skates, able to do all other things like cross overs, backwards, backwards crossovers, etc but not stop properly. I kept spinning or stopping too fast like my blade got stuck in a rut. Turns out, thanks to your video, I forgot to bend my knees and only use the front half of the blades. Thank you.
You’re welcome! Glad I helped you out!
I love the breakdown of this, most videos don't explain it well, they just say do this, but you don't really know technically what is happening. I'm struggling with the back leg just dragging behind, i think the biggest thing i got from this video is to lean the opposite way to get on that outer edge of the back skate, I'm likely way too straight up and down, so my skate just drags. Also I always need to do more knee bend. Tore my acl from standing too straight after stopping, that is a 12 month lesson i never want to learn again! Really awesome video, thank you so much!
I’m really glad that I could help you! The faster you go, the more you have to lean back. The slower you are, the straighter you can be!
Best info starts at 5:00 exactly. Really awesome tutorial it's just a matter of practice to get that weight transference to work with your edges which I cannot do the back leg thing yet (often my back skate skips/hops across the ice weirdly instead of making a smooth scrape)but I feel closer after watching this video. Thanks.
Glad I could help! Yes, the back leg is definitely tougher. Just keep working on it💪
Step with the inside leg, or relieve all pressure to glide the blade laterally, and reset it on the outside edge, slightly behind the outside blade. It's very similar to downhill skiing.
Thanks, I always had a back leg drag!!
You’re welcome! Glad I could help!
Thank you for this video. I’ve only been skating and playing hockey for about 5 years. I can only perform a true hockey stop on my right side. Not able to do it on my left. Thanks to your video I’m almost able to stop on my left side now. It’s getting better. Thank you!
You're welcome! Glad to help!
Amazing explanation
Thanks so much!
Great video very informative
Thanks! Glad I could help!
your ingenius method of simple and concise instructions is far superior to anything anyone else offers
Thanks so much for your kind words!
Excellent
Thanks!
Thank you very much
You’re very welcome!
This is a great video because it teaches you how to fix these issues without requiring you think too hard about it. Having your body in the right position eliminates the need to think "Ok I need to use the middle to front part of my blade" because as pointed out that position takes weight off your heel. Leaning back is also compartmentalized by using the logic of "After we stop that's the direction I want to be going." The only thing you have to actively think about is shifting the weight off your back leg enough for you to get it on it's outside edge. Which after enough times of it getting stuck and you fixing it that will also become muscle memory. The less things you need to focus on the less likely you are to mess one thing up being too concerned about another part. It's a great teaching method.
Thanks, I’m glad you liked it!
1,000,000% best breakdown I've yet to see for Hockey Stopping
Thanks so much!
thanks helped me a lot! a actually do hockey so it was so helpfull thanks!
That’s great! Glad I could help!
You explained it so good! I never thought about lifting the second foot up .
Thank you! Yeah some things you never really notice until you see it on video!
@@MarcelsHockeySchool yes indeed
I went skating today to learn this stop and I just kept turning instead of stopping like you said. Plus there were a lot of other people on the rink and I was always afraid of doing something that might make somebody else trip. Next time I need to try implementing your advice. 😃
I hope my advice can help you!
cant wait to try this out tomorrow i was doing what you said at the start kinda spinning when trying to stop
Good luck! Hope the tips helped you!
Finally a guy who go's into more detail!
Thank you! I try to get the details right but also keep it understandable for everyone!
Thank you.
You’re most welcome!
I don't usually leave comments because I don't see the point but in your case I will. This video was perfectly done. Very helpful for beginners. Thank you for taking the time.
Well I'm really glad you took the time to drop a comment and thanks a lot! :)
great vid!
Thanks!
Omg I’ve been skating on figure skates my whole life (I’m 21) and just got hockey skated for the first time!! I could never understand how to stop on skates without bashing into the boards! I will try and practice, keeping this in mind, thank you!!
You’re welcome! Glad I helped you out!
Du kannst wirklich gut erklären!!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤
Danke schön!
so helpful
Thanks!
