- The video provides a clear and concise explanation of each stop.
- It demonstrates the proper technique for each stop.
T-Stop [0:03]
The T-stop is a basic stop that is used to slow down or stop completely. To perform a T-stop, the player places one skate perpendicular to the direction of travel, forming a "T" shape with their skates. The player then uses their other skate to push off and slow down.
One-Foot Hockey Stop [0:06]
The one-foot hockey stop is a more advanced stop that is used to stop quickly and smoothly. To perform a one-foot hockey stop, the player places one skate perpendicular to the direction of travel and uses their other skate to push off and slide across the ice. The player then uses their stick to help them balance and control their momentum.
Reverse T-Stop [0:10]
The reverse T-stop is a variation of the T-stop that is used to stop quickly and change direction. To perform a reverse T-stop, the player places one skate perpendicular to the direction of travel and uses their other skate to push off and slide across the ice. The player then uses their stick to help them balance and control their momentum.
Hockey Stop [0:16]
The hockey stop is a more advanced stop that is used to stop quickly and smoothly. To perform a hockey stop, the player places one skate perpendicular to the direction of travel and uses their other skate to push off and slide across the ice. The player then uses their stick to help them balance and control their momentum.
Sweet E Stop [0:21]
The "sweet E" stop is a more advanced stop that is used to stop quickly and smoothly. To perform a "sweet E" stop, the player places one skate perpendicular to the direction of travel and uses their other skate to push off and slide across the ice. The player then uses their stick to help them balance and control their momentum.
