POWER SKATING — the key to better hockey, written by John Wild is, a book that any boy can understand. It isn't a big book but is well illustrated and dispells any idea that power skating is the same as figure skating. It ain't so! Power skating teaches balance and proper weight shift and proves that skating is also a science where it is not only leg action but co-ordination of all the body muscles. To learn the art of power skating is beneficial not only to hockey players, but any boy, girl or adult who wants to skate well. It took many years of studying related sports; body movement and skating techniques of the great hockey players to develop a teaching program. Anyone from the age of six to an experienced hockey player can be taught. Hockey playing is improved by understanding balance and movement that saves a waste of energy.
