Technique

The first step in the Q3 Process is to help your skater master his or her individual style and skating technique. This means harnessing principles of aerodynamics, physiology, skating physics, and more.

Here’s just a small sampling of what we’ll cover as we help your skater maximize technique for optimal performance...

• How to discover the biomechanically correct stride for your skater’s body type...


• All the essential forward and backward
  skating skills to enhance performance...


• What your skater needs to know
  about physics, motor memory,
  and force distribution...


• Secrets to body position and correct leg placement that most skaters don’t understand.

"Quantum Speed has changed the way that coaches and teammates view me... I feel that this camp is one reason that I got drafted. Originally I had slow feet, after two or three years in this camp it has brought me to a higher level. The instructors are great. I've improved my game so much and it has given me a chance at the next level."

Matt Tassone #1 (Swift Current Broncos - WHL) Selected by Dallas Stars round 6 #176 overall in 2008 NHL entry draft

"I have skated with Quantum Speed for over five years. It's really helped me look bigger, helping me bending my knees more, making me stronger and lengthening my stride. Scouts have seen it and it's really helped me in opening up new pathways in hockey."

Scott Allan (Spruce Grove Saints AJHL, signed with University of Alaska Anchorage Seawolves)

"Thanks so much for helping me out last week. I feel a big difference in my skating ability already. It's amazing what only four days can do."

Tim Priamo, Player, University of Guelph, Former Player - Guelph Storm (OHL)

"I've been working with Quantum Speed over five years! I get better every year that I come. My stride got better, and I have quicker starts and faster feet."

Mike MacAngus (University of Alberta - CIS)

"Quantum Speed's Q3 Program is a great camp. It was lots of fun and the instructors really help you out and give you everything you need."

Brett Ponich (Portland Winterhawks -WHL) Selected by St. Louis Blues round 2 #48 overall 2009 NHL Entry Draft

"Detroit (Red Wings) scouts could not believe the improvement in Van d's posture and his skating, a credit to you."

Steve Pleau, Head Coach, Edmonton Oil Kings WHL Franchise

"This was by far the best value hockey/skating program my son has ever participated in. Finally a program where the kids are taught, not just run though drills. The improvement in his technique is nothing short of dramatic. We’ll be back for sure"

Gary

"In the first four days, I learned more about speed and my own skating than I had in the last 4 years. I like how simple science rules, common knowledge and NHL players’ skills are combined to show us the most effective way to gain speed."

Carling

"I am very pleased to see how much individual attention each skater receives throughout each class. When my son would have trouble with a drill the the instructors would pull him aside and assist him in learning proper fundamental skills."

J.J. - Westminster, CO

"I appreciated all the detection and correction through the drills by having good instructor ratio."

Don

"The coaching technique and professionalism of the entire training staff was fantastic. The focused attention Roddy received from coaches in developing the technique and acknowledgment of his success when he was able to nail the moves."

Scott

"The first comment Tyler made when he got off the ice the first day was “that was so awesome!” “It is so simple yet, no one has ever told me any of that."

Tyler

"I learned more about skating technique in my first Quantum Speed lesson than I have in all of my years playing hockey."
