Are you stuck on the PowerStop? Nail it with our Online Training Program https://skatefresh.com/stops-slides/The PowerStop is one of the hardest moves to master because it demands fluent turns and the ability to carve deep corresponding edges (inside edge on one foot and outside edge on the other).Most skaters struggle with learning the PowerStop because they (unknowingly) skip the prerequisite Lunge Turn & Lunge Stop. Trying instead to just skate and then turn 90 degrees into a PowerStop is the best way to end up falling sideways onto your hip. Building the PowerStop from a Lunge Stop will be a smooth progression without the nasty falls.The Skatefresh PowerStop online training includes detailed training on the Lunge Turn, Lunge Stop and finally PowerStop. Youll end up with 2 new stopping methods and become one of the few skaters able to do this impressive move. The PowerStop then becomes the prerequisite for the even more challenging Hockey stop / Parallel slide. Who is Asha Skatefresh?
