How to Take a Slapshot - Tips and Drills to Rip Bombs

Coach Matt of the Hockey Players Club and Quest Hockey demonstrates the four-step process of taking a slapshot along with some tips and drills to help improve your slapshot technique. Slapshots are the most powerful hockey shot, but take the longest amount of time and aren't very accurate. One of the main reasons elite players are able to generate much faster slap shots is that they are able to flex their hockey stick much more during the slap shot, which in turn increases the puck- and stick-contact time duration. The Four Stages of a Slapshot Performed in One Fluid Motion: 1. Wind up the stick to shoulder height or higher. Don’t forget to slide your bottom hand along the stick. 2. “Slap” or strike the ice slightly behind the puck. Use your body weight and a strong bottom hand to bend or flex the stick - storing energy in the stick like a spring. The stick’s tendency to return to being straight is transferred to the puck, giving it much more speed than just hitting it could. 3. Transfer your weight from your back leg (95%) to your front leg (100%). Finish completely on your front foot so that the energy stored in the stick is released through the puck. 4. Follow through → point your stick at the target and stare down "the barrel of the gun." Drills: - Pause at each step drill (no puck) - Pause at each step drill (add puck and shot) - Rip some puppies - Clappers down the line (emphasize quick wind-up and follow-through) If you have any questions, shoot us an email at [email protected].
