Mastering an outside edge stop requires strong edge control, weight distribution, and proper body positioning. Here’s how to do it effectively:

Step-by-Step Guide to the Outside Edge Stop

1. Get into a Stable Stance
• Bend your knees deeply for control and stability.
• Keep your core engaged and your upper body slightly forward.
• Position your arms naturally for balance.

2. Build Momentum & Prepare to Stop
• Gain a comfortable speed—too slow makes stopping harder, while too fast can make control difficult.
• Start with a slight lean toward the outside edge of your stopping skate.

3. Shift Your Weight to the Outside Edge
• If stopping on your right foot, shift your weight slightly onto the outside edge of your right skate (vice versa for the left foot).
• Keep your balance centered, avoiding excessive leaning to prevent sliding out.

4. Rotate Your Hips & Shoulders
• Turn your hips and shoulders in the direction of the stop.
• Keep your head up and look in the direction you want to stop.

5. Apply Controlled Pressure
• Use the outside edge of your stopping foot to dig into the ice while keeping your other foot stable for control.
• Start by dragging the stopping foot slightly before increasing pressure.

6. Control the Slide & Recover
• As you feel the resistance from the ice, keep your knees bent to absorb the stop.
• Once stopped, push off into your next move to maintain flow and speed.

Common Mistakes & Fixes:

❌ Leaning too far back → Keep your chest over your knees.
❌ Not engaging the outside edge properly → Focus on controlled pressure, not just turning your foot.
❌ Too much weight on the inside leg → Ensure your stopping foot is actively engaged.
