Mine sucks. Pointers please.
I guess it's mainly an issue of strong balance on your skates, something I don't really have right now. I know you are supposed to actually aim a bit behind the puck to get some whip and flex on your stick. But whenever I try a slapper, it's one of those crappy skid along the ice ones. I don't think I generate enough power and whip, maybe I need a stick with a flex that isn't as stiff.
Say you are standing still about to take a slapshot. Where should the puck be in your stance? In the middle between your two skates? More towards your back foot?
Thanks in advance for your help.
