SLEDGE HOCKEY DRILLS AND SKILLS | SLED SETUP

So, I did the best I could with having a Rev Force 1 sled on hand. There are many other models of sleds available at www.uniqueinventionsinc.com to help you, and depending on your disability there’s a lot to consider in sled setup. But with these two sleds as an example, here are the main things you should focus on when trying to dial in your sled. 1. Proper length (Knees should generally be bent around 30 degrees (or 150 depending on how you look at it) 2. Proper height (So your knuckles just scrape above the ice surface) 3. Blade positioning, front to back (Finding the balance point of your sled so your nose is off the ice) 4. Bucket angle (Depending on your disability and what’s comfortable for you) I touch on stick length as well which is really important. Most players have sticks that are too long vs sticks that are too short. Sticks that are too long means: 1. You’re ending your stride early and/or you’ll be choking up on your sticks a lot (Hands not at the top of the blades) 2. Proper length (Knees should generally be bent around 30 degrees (or 150 depending on how you look at it) 3. You’ll have to put more effort into your shot because of the long leverage point Sticks that are too short means: 1. You end your stride too soon, not achieving a full stride and making you pick a lot more 2. You’ll have great acceleration but lack a better top speed 3. You’ll probably raise the puck easier and have a harder shot, but lack an overall ability to be more creative and pick corners, shoot from distances farther away, etc… plus it will affect your reach in battling in corners, stick handling, and how much more you can do with passing. As things progress I’d love to do at least a few more of these videos on sled setup because there’s a lot of players out there that need help with this. If you have a specific question about your setup please leave me a comment and include a photo of you in your sled so I can see what you look like. I’ll do my best to help as many people as I can. Hope you enjoy!
