Skating skills are the most important part of hockey and quite often the most neglected due to lack of adequate training or ice time. Proper technique is required for all elements of skating, including forward stride, crossover, backward skating, stops and starts. What is the proper technique?

Making a full stride on the PowerSkater trains your body to memorize the technique, which results in good habits that will transfer to the ice. The PowerSkater replicates a forward-stride movement, resulting in balance, power and control. The same exercise will assist the skater in other skating skills such as crossover, backward skating, stops and starts.
