This video is designed to help skaters of all levels learn and improve their backward stroking using simple, effective exercises. Whether you're a beginner just starting out or an advanced skater looking to refine your technique, these on-ice exercises will enhance your backward stroking skills.
During stroking, remember to focus on proper posture with your back straight and head up, knee and ankle bend, and keeping your arms stretched out to the side. Push with the inside edge and extend your free leg with your foot turned out and pointed. Keep your hips over your skating foot and make sure to bend your ankle and knee before you push.
Incorporate these tips and drills into your regular practice to build strength, control, and fluidity in your backward stroking. Watch, learn, and practice to see significant improvements in your skating performance.
