Players skate laps continuously at half speed (starting clockwise around the four cones as shown). At whistles or phrases, players execute the below maneuvers followed by at least 3 explosive strides:
1. One whistle (or "STOP"): quick stop using both feet facing the middle of the ice + crossover start
2. Two whistles (or "TURN"): tight turn using both feet towards the middle of the ice plus crossovers coming out of the turn
3. Three whistles (Mohawk): execute mohawk towards center of the ice, crossovers to regain speed
Do 5 minutes without, pucks, then repeat 5mins with pucks

Notes: explain importance of knowing several edgework skills to change direction quickly and the need to face the play while transitioning (usually middle of the ice)
