π― Hip Shots in Hockey β Power with Precision! ππ₯
When youβre shooting off the hip, itβs all about efficient mechanics and proper posture πͺ. Hereβs what to focus on:
β
Body Positioning: Keep your chest up and shoulders level. A strong, balanced upper body helps transfer power from your legs through your core and into the shot.
β
Toes Pointing to the Net: Your feet should be angled toward your target π¦Άπ―. This aligns your hips and shoulders, creating a clean path for the puck to explode off your blade.
β
Weight Transfer: Shift your weight from your back leg to your front leg as you release. This generates max power while keeping you controlled and ready for a rebound or transition.
β
Blade Position & Release: Keep the puck loaded on your blade close to the hip, and snap through with a quick, compact motion. π₯ Precision meets deception.
This shot is perfect when you donβt have time for a big wind-up β quick release, tight space, and still dangerous for the goalie ππ₯
