๐ฏ Hip Shots in Hockey โ Power with Precision! ๐๐ฅ
When youโre shooting off the hip, itโs all about efficient mechanics and proper posture ๐ช. Hereโs what to focus on:
โ
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.
โ
Toes Pointing to the Net: Your feet should be angled toward your target ๐ฆถ๐ฏ. This aligns your hips and shoulders, creating a clean path for the puck to explode off your blade.
โ
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.
โ
Blade Position & Release: Keep the puck loaded on your blade close to the hip, and snap through with a quick, compact motion. ๐ฅ Precision meets deception.
This shot is perfect when you donโt have time for a big wind-up โ quick release, tight space, and still dangerous for the goalie ๐๐ฅ
