It was actually Connor McDavid

Absolutely fantastic skater! Wow so impressed with the break down, camera work and slo mo. Excellent job!

Steve the 👑. Great with the ”slo-mo”👍👏💪🙏

Phenomenal technique! Hat's off to you sir.

Thank you so much of the video. My son needs to work on his tight turn and mohawk. The slow speed is very helpful.

great video, thank you!

Steve has fantastic skating technique but his control of his outside edges are really something else

Steve is a legend.

Wow. That edge work...

BK is the greatest coach on youtube

This is high level stuff. He is rocketing up the ice, talking while doing it, not even breathing hard. Amazing technique and skill. I'm sure years of hard work went into it. Practice makes perfect.

I read once that mcdavid uses gravity to gain power and speed. In other words think of when u have come from behind the net picking up speed point your lead shoulder falling or pointing down the falling force adds power. Not sure if he covers this. Yes combined with the cross overs. Try it i just feel quicker more power transferred. And im 66 skating since i was three. Saskatchewan eh.

I remember these, I miss practice.

Always interesting: what's the profile/ROH of the blades?..

great video and drills, I just wonder why I see so many drills where the puck carrier has to jump over a hurdle, is it to make it harder, do you see utility in being better at that for in game purposes?

It really strengthens your balance and helps build your trust in your edges. I do them in warmups every time I get on the ice (sans props of course).

Who makes your stickhandling obstacles/devices?

fireee

which hollow is he using in that video?

Nice video. Is your stick looks 'longer' than what is typically told to young hockey players starting out. If you don't mind be asking, to what height do you cut your stick while standing with street shoes (nose / chin / etc.)? Thanks

click on the gear tab (settings) by CC tab. Slow it down 75%, 50% or 25% .

Now I just need an entire rink to myself to practice...

The inside edge punch turns on your backhand side are really valuable. Similar to 5:28 but more of a stop with your right foot and let the left foot come around with momentum. You can stop on a dime and peel off in the opposite direction with minimal effort.

Oak ridges arena?

Can you show how Mackinnon training and skate?

Steve's a great skater and I don't doubt his method or anything, it just seems like McDavid's skating isn't really in focus here. To me it looks like McDavid's different from the other best skaters in the world that he plays against every night in that his he's so explosive in and around his ankles, just like Bobby Orr was. This doesn't address that. If you leave those muscles out, you get a different texture to each stroke and stride.

It doesn't have to be the end all be all video on his stride mechanics, but a major component of McDavid's skating is linear crossovers and his training incorporates lots of combinations of skating and stickhandling with obstacles in increasingly complex patterns (moreso than is typical), so the video is relevant.

@brianphilippoi349

@@BenBreeg1138 I agree the video is relevant. It just doesn't align with the title. Linear crossovers seem more important to McDavid's use of space than his skating per se. He doesn't use them when purely racing, for example. If they were foundational to his speed in raw terms, he would use them in racing scenarios. He uses them to a minimum though when he's in a footrace. He uses them with the puck because the combination of superior end-to-end speed, with side-to-side expansion of attack angles opens up the ice for him and slows defenders down (kind of two-sides-of-the-same-coin scenario). It may seem trivial to split it like that, but I argue it's anything but. I've seen a handful of other NHLers use linear crossovers in footrace situations where they're actually decreasing their coverage of ice over time. Linear crossovers are just what you do when you're a better skater and puck handler to make your attack more acidic to the defense, dissolving its formation. He uses them so much because he's at the top level of the top level in the world. He might say he gets a lot of speed from them, but it doesn't hold up in a raw comparison to his normal forward stride, and his stroke selection reflects this. It's just like all the pros with insane stick skills who talk about the Sakic curve as a toe curve. You can't argue with the results even if the categorization isn't accurate. I stand by the evidence of McDavid's skating. His ankle activation is what's so different, on top of all the ways he excels. That's something that's not at all addressed here. This video just shows you some excellent foundations for edging, but nothing about a radically more anatomical way of skating.

@@brianphilippoi349 Wouldn't be the first headline in history that maybe isn't 100% accurate. If I am looking at how someone is skating, yes, the actual mechanics are fundamental, but I also want to know how they apply them. Everybody can do mohawks, but Crosby applies them in tight spaces better than and more than others. I think Jason Yee probably has more of what you are looking for wrt the details of how CM skates.

"If I am looking at how someone is skating, yes, the actual mechanics are fundamental, but I also want to know how they apply them." Fully agree. That's why I think it's a common mistake to over-credit linear crossovers. If you look at how he applies them, they aren't his go-to for speed. They are for deception, manipulation, and timing. Yet, the way a lot of people talk about them, they're this magic formula for skating faster. That might be true if the impact of over-structured skates degenerate an individual's stride significantly, which I think is rather common in hockey skating, but that's a problem of a different origin. You also see others, even at the NHL level, applying linear crossovers as if they are the secret to A-to-B sprints.

@BenBreeg1138

@@brianphilippoi349 OK, I don't know that I have heard people talk about his linear crossovers as his secret to speed. I have heard people talk about his stride frequency and length, where he brings his foot on recovery, etc. Others use linear crossovers, it's become a "thing" in recent years, but it is certainly a component of his style/arsenal. Skating isn't all about just speed to me. Look at Crosby and Makar, of course they have speed but that isn't what makes their skating great.
