Skating & Edge Work
Build explosive acceleration, tight edge control, and crossover mechanics — the foundation every competitive player needs on the ice.
Speed wins games, but edges win races. At Blueline, edge work is the bedrock of every development plan. Coach Palmquist breaks down each player's stride mechanics, identifies compensations, and rebuilds from the ground up — from single-foot balance and edge transitions to crossovers under pressure. Whether your skater is working to crack a competitive AAA roster or dominate at the high school level, the gains from structured edge training are measurable and durable.
What's Included
- Video stride analysis to identify inefficiencies
- Forward and backward edge progressions
- Explosive first-step and acceleration drills
- Crossover mechanics on both forehand and backhand
- Tight-turn and stop-and-start agility circuits
- Off-ice dryland plyometrics to reinforce on-ice gains
“Derek completely rebuilt my son's skating in six weeks. His first-step speed improved noticeably and his edges in tight turns are night and day. Every evaluator at his AAA tryout commented on it.”
