Trimble’s Drill of the Week- Edge Work Series
I use this edge work series of drills at a lot of my private lessons to get kids warmed up. Its a series of tires or cones 5 in a row by 2 to the side. I use these in a progression with or without pucks. The placement of the tires and tight proximity challenges each skater.
- Inside Edge 1 – Foot
- Outside Edges 1 – Foot
- Inside/ Outside Edges 2 – feet on ice
- Mowhawks
Try it at your sessions. Focus on Knee bend, thrust, power, holding the edge, heads up, stick control and much more…
