This is a great video for sure I just want to comment, although I'm a beginner, that I believe that when stopping with your inside edge if your outside edge touches the ice it gets a very hard grip on the ice and you would definitely fall or go flying if you're going just a bit fast. That has happened to me and I've been afraid of my outside edge ever since.
Outside edges can be a little intimidating at first! Keep practicing and very important that your weight is in the middle of your skate, when your first trying this out skate forward get into a glide moving forward and lightly turn one foot inwards (like a snow plow stop) and gently push your edge into the ice in order to slide it on the ice. Begin slow then add speed gradually, practice one foot at time. Once you get comfortable with sliding that foot then you can add more speed and perform a proper one foot stop on your inside edge without catching your outside edge. It takes some time but you get it you get it!!
This was extremely helpful thank you. I’m still noticing that when I’m stopping on my outside edge with one foot, that foot tends to vibrate and chop at the ice rather then glide. Why is that?
That is a great question, usually that vibration is due to where your weight is on your skate, make sure you're on the ball of your foot and add pressure to your skate, if you're too light on your skate it will chop (vibrate) on the ice.
very good....i never heard anyone explain what a one footstop is useful for in hockey.....this makes me want to learn how to do them now...i always thought that it was just a showing off move
Thanks for the video coach. I find the one leg outside edge stop extremely difficult. It’s hard to get the confidence to lean back enough to get on the outside edge. I just feel like I’m going to fall forward. Any tips to get over this feeling?
I'm still having trouble stopping on the outside edges. I feel like I have no support when body is leaning without a leg to keep me from falling down. Going to try again tomorrow.
It is a tricky one, as your balancing all of your weight on 1 foot and you're leaning back. Try to keep your weight over the ball of your foot and keep that leg slightly bent to help with balance. Start at slow speeds then add speed as you feel comfortable. Good luck.
For some reason I cannot stop on both my inside edges, especially when my skates is just sharpened, I would just stop abruptly and inertia cause me to fall. I stop with both outside edges perfectly fine though. How could this be the case?
So bizarre... learnt how to do outside edge stop just last week and this video came in my recommended ! Great content ! Greetings from Dubai.. just subbed
MrJourney2anywhere great to hear your part of the family!! Thanks for subscribing. Best of luck working on your skills. If you’d like to see any additional videos let us know. Thanks.
how to avoid from falling forward? i'm afraid that the moment i turn my skates i will fall forward like this is what i feel when i try to rotate the skates..
That is normal, make sure your body is balanced and your shoulders aren't too far over your toes. Keep your weight centred over the ball of your foot. The key to perform any skating skill effectively is to have control of your body through the movement. Always go back to basics with good body position, shoulders over knees and knees over toes. Good luck.
@@nsdahockey where do you put the weight on the blade for an outside edge 1 foot stop and body lean? Do you swing the other leg foward in side position for momentum when turning to stop?
I keep catching my inside edge and just turning I don't know how to stop that from happening, I feel like I'm putting my weight on the ball of my foot?
Thank you for the response to the video. If you are working on 1-legged stops on inside or outside edges make sure that your weight is slightly back from centre. If you lean too far over your skate it makes the stop more difficult. I'm assuming your working on the inside edge 1-legged stop and you are simply gliding on your inside edge (like a 1-foot glide turn on inside edge). Practice sliding your skates on the ice stationary so you get the feeling of that slide, then start very slowly with some movement and try turning your toe in (pigeon toed), keep your weight slightly back and let the skate slide on the ice, as you feel comfortable from stationary to slow movement then you can add more speed to the skill.

Make sure to practice wearing full gear (protective). Just commit and you'll get this.
Excellent
Thank you, I appreciate the comment and you checking out our videos.
Does bad ice conditions make this any harder?

Great video. I learned all this 35 ago. Practice makes perfect
Haha, nice, hopefully you can still pull it off? I agree practice does make perfect.

Great to hear players are enjoying our videos from all over the world. Hello to hockey in Dubai!!
Ty coach!
I already knew how to do this and I’m 11 (but I enjoyed watching)

ONLY video guide where it shows you where should put the weight of your feet on the blade.
Thank you for the feedback. I appreciate it.

Please do a video on spino-rama skill
will do, we are limited with ice here but I may be able to put something together on our ODR. Thank you for the message.
this is a really good video... niice

How do you pronounce “legged” in the US? Is it “leg-ged” or is it “legd “.
I’m from the USA and I say leg-ged.
