Slap Shot

there are many different things you need to include when taking a slap shot in hockey
Skate to within a reasonable shooting distance from the goal.

  • Position your body sideways to the net and in a normal passing stance - skates parallel, knees bent, back bent forward, stick extended, blade edge flat on the ice (or roller rink) and puck cradled in the center of the blade.

  • Raise the stick up and straight back until your bottom hand is at shoulder level.

  • Keep your bottom arm straight.

  • Shift your weight to the back foot.

  • Raise your eyes, and mark the desired target (an open edge of the gop]al, not an opponent's helmet).

  • Bring the stick aggressively forward: Pull with your top hand, push with the bottom hand.

  • Transfer your weight to the front foot.

  • Strike the puck on its bottom edge.
