The Hockey Tight Turn

Where your inside leg executes an outside edge stop and your outside leg executes a simple c-cut turn. We use this turn more than all others. It allows us to turn super sharp, keep stable while turning and we can explode out of the turn which is always important. Inside leg outside edge stop: Notice how the weight is more so on the toe of the outside edge stopping skate. This helps you really lean into your turn to keep some speed up while also maintaining some grip from the stop. It’s a light stop where you never come to a full halt. Outside leg inside edge c-cut: The weight is on the heel of the inside edge c-cutting skate. For stability keep your stance wide. This skate being so far beside and behind the inside foot helps keep the stability needed to turn on a dime.
