DVD Reviews of Robby Glantz's Secrets of Hockey Speed Vol. 1

DVD Review: Excellent for the beginner or novice skater.
Summary: 5 Stars

As a totally new skater, I was looking for an instructional offering that would allow me to enhance my skills. I wanted something that was fun, engaging and allowed me to watch and learn from.
This DVD met all of my criteria. I especially liked the manner of delivery which was fun and engaging. The camera angles and out takes highlighting specific techniques were excellent. The presentation by Glantz was also excellent. I actually had fun watching this.
If you are new, or want to learn better technique in your skating abilities, then I would highly recommend this dvd.
This DVD is great for those just getting into skating but also intermediate skaters as the techniques highlighted certainly are the basis for elevating your skating.

DVD Review: Excellent video
Summary: 5 Stars

I found this video to be very helpful in improving my skating speed and agility. The dvd is very helpful to both beginners and pro's alike.

The DVD demonstrates the proper body positioning, weight distribution and is presented in an easy to understand and follow manner.

I highly recommend grabbing volume 2 as well, it improves upon the lessons and information in this dvd.

Having first watched volume 1 and then volume 2 of Robby Glantz, I was quite disappointed with Laura Stamm's DVD, if you are trying to decide between the two, i would suggest getting this over Laura Stamms.

DVD Review: Great for Beginners Too
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm just starting ice hockey at the ripe young age of 38. I bought this DVD and the Laura Stamm DVD to help learn skating. While both are excellent, it seems to me that the Stamm DVD is going to be more useful down the line as I pick up more skating experience and comfort. The Glantz DVD I find more helpful in actually teaching the moves/techniques shown in the video; therefore, I find it more helpful for me right now as a beginner.

DVD Review: Excellent job!
Summary: 5 Stars

If you want to get fast on the ice, this is your video to get there. By no means does this replace hours of practice on the ice, but it more than makes your time there a catalyst to boost your speed. You have to put in the effort though.

About a week after I ordered this, I fractured my leg so I was off the ice for 5 months. Once the tendons got back into shape I hit it hard with the drills in the video. I started with doing "dry land" drills in my living room in front of the tv to get my leg loose and teach the muscles to "memorize" that movement. Then came ice time. I know I'm faster because now I can catch the guys I played with before the injury when I used to just watch them fly to the other end of the ice. They're impressed!

If you're serious about getting faster and have access to a patch of ice on a regular basis, do these drills at least twice a week and you'll see your game improve greatly as you can now be in position to make great plays rather than watching them from down the ice.

DVD Review: The most useful hockey instruction video
Summary: 5 Stars

Being an aduly rec player, this is the most useful hockey instruction video I've seen, and I've seen many. It's packed densely with information and produced flawlessly. The only complaint one mught have with it is that it doesn't teach some advanced moves, but volume II of this series does.
