• Forward – Remember that your arm movements affects your leg movements, find your natural pendulum movement.
• Backwards – It can feel uncomfortable to skate backwards. If that is the case, look upwards in order to get better ...
• Crossovers – To run when you make crossovers can look fast and cool, but do not get tricked into beliving that is an efficient way. Avoid great leaps. Sneak like a panther.
• Turns – 50 % of all turns during av game from forward to backward reduces the players speed, which results in tired players. Retain your speed.
• Coordination – By running on the ice you can get a feel for where on the skate your center of gravity should be.

"I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat."
