|
|
Anybody know any drills to teach goalies to use the butterfly slides? Like from scratch, no butterfly sliding experience. Right now it's more like a leap and drop, any tips on how to teach them to be smoother, and not do the leap at the beginning?
And I'm not referring to how to do it - I've taught them that, and we go over it every ice time. They know how to do it, it's just more or less applying it.
Any tips would be great  |

actually I worked on my slides a lot over the summer, cause i basically can't do one. I started by just learning to drop my lead leg, cause I would usually try to drop my trailing leg, dont know why. So i guess my process went:
Get into VH-stance
Take small pushes at first, and work your way up to large ones
and for crouch to slide
start to go to VH, then once I'm 1/2-3/4 down hold it, and then push, then go all the way to a slide.
Err. sound kinda confusing now that i wrote it down but it works on ice. or at least for me. _________________
