In this very short video, Chris Conte explains at what point in a skater’s development he focuses on the various skids and stops. This video is part of a series of videos on skids and stops. In Part 1 he covered T-stops. In Part 2 he introduced the slideboard drill. In Part 3 he shared some drills for building skidding mastery and discussed the ”one foot hockey stop” and the “tango stop” in detail. In Part 4 he talked about skidded turns.
In this video, Chris talks about the progression a skater makes in skid and stop development. He also gives some idea of at what skating/test level he expects mastery of these skills.
