One Leg ICE Hockey Stop – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6-CJXdyPe8
Inline Hockey Stop – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhaO3e1mn9I
Today I practiced stopping with one leg.
The basic idea is simple.
Do a regular powerstop but instead of falling back on the inside skate,
try to keep balancing over the sliding skate.
***
Easier said than done. I tried 64 times. Only a few went kinda okay
It’s hard to control the slide and that’s what I need to learn.
Most often the sliding skate just slid away too fast and I fell back as in a regular powerstop.
***
And quite a few times the sliding skate just came to a full stop too quickly
and I ended up jumping to keep from myself from falling.
***
I made a video about one leg hockey on ice.
And it’s .. yea .. a totally different thing. It’s so much easier on ice.
***
I made another video about a regular parallel hockey stop on inline skates
which I also find very difficult but the one leg stop is even more so
***
Anyway, I’ll keep practicing, and when I get better at it, get a better understanding,
I will make a more detailed breakdown.
And if you have any tips … that would be just perfect .. please let us know in the comments below.

If you watch all the way to the end, you’ll see what happens when you get too tired, drowsy and lose focus
