This is the final video of Joe working with an advanced skater on his quickstarts. He adds resistance while the skater implements the quick start motions they’ve been working on.
Right away the skater lists the things he should NOT do: dip shoulders, give a slow push, and turn slowly. Stick control promptly through while staying low is key.
“Butt down chest up” while powering through using arms is Joe’s mantra, reminding the skater to use full strides.
Then the skater tries to break his previous record of 11.1 seconds for his pucks on the line speed drill. All the hard work paid off!
