What is a power pull? It’s a one-foot, linear gliding skill that creates power through edges. Players should use it because it will make them better skaters and because they’ll love it, according to Lindsay Tilley, Founder of Hockey Edge Agility Training (HEAT).
Tilley’s presentation explains the five step learning process she uses to teach power pulls (receive, process, assimilate, store, master), and dives into the biomechanics of why it’s effective, before displaying examples of strong edge work in the game. Few are as qualified to teach this skill than Tilley, who has 25 years of coaching and skating experience.
