WHY IS YOUR PLAYER
NOT GETTING FASTER?

Most hockey parents never find out. HLH analyzes your player's skating mechanics and tells you exactly what is holding them back. Then gives you a personalized weekly plan with on-ice drills and off-ice workouts to fix it. First analysis free.

Every Hockey Parent Knows This Feeling

Your player works harder than anyone at practice. They want it. They put in the time. But somehow other kids are just faster and nobody can tell you why.

The coach says work on your skating. Private lessons give you feedback you forget by the next practice. You invest in development and you are still guessing.

The difference between a good skater and an elite one is not effort. It is mechanics. Things that happen in a fraction of a second that no human eye can catch.

4 STEPS TO ELITE SKATING

No expensive camps, no waiting lists. Upload from anywhere and get results in minutes.

01
๐Ÿ“ฑ FILM YOUR PLAYER
Stand at the player bench at the red line, in landscape mode. Film 3-5 full hockey strides at 70-80% speed. Any iPhone or Android works. See the 60-second filming guide โ†’
02
๐Ÿค– AI ANALYZES EVERYTHING
Our AI measures 11 biomechanical metrics frame by frame, including explosive power, power leaks, and triple extension synchronicity that no other app tracks.
03
๐ŸŽฏ GET YOUR GAME PLAN
Receive your HLH Skating Score, a full AI coaching report, personalized drills, and a shareable PDF report card.
04
๐Ÿ“ˆ TRACK REAL PROGRESS
Upload a new video every week and watch every metric climb. Compare sessions side by side and show your coach exactly how much your player has improved.
How It Works

TWO DAYS. ONE SYSTEM.

Your player has 2 practices a week. HLH gives them a development system for every other day.

PRACTICE DAYS
Your Coach Uses HLH
Your coach films the team, uploads the videos, and uses the data to run targeted drills. The whole team works on what the data says, not what the coach guesses.
Objective data on every player
10-minute targeted drill segment
Parents notified of results automatically
EVERY OTHER DAY
Your Player Uses HLH
Between practices your player uploads their video, sees what changed, gets their personalized drill plan, and does the work. They arrive at the next practice already improved.
Upload from any rink, any time
Personalized drills targeting weakest metrics
Score tracked week over week all season
Your coach diagnoses the problem. HLH fixes it between sessions.
Your player has 2 practices a week. That's about 2 hours of coached development. HLH covers the other 166 hours.
Every Other Day

The Off-Ice Half of Player Development.

Skating is a movement pattern, and movement patterns are built off the ice as much as on it. Every HLH report includes a personalized off-ice plan tied directly to your player's biomechanical weaknesses. As the metrics improve, the prescriptions progress, from foundational mobility work to advanced unilateral strength, depending on what the data shows your player needs next.

SYMMETRY WEAKNESS
Single Leg RDL to Reach
3 sets of 8 each leg
The gold standard for revealing left/right asymmetry. Most stride imbalance traces back to weaker posterior chain on one side. This drill exposes the gap and trains both sides equally.
STRIDE RATE WEAKNESS
Bulgarian Split Squats
3 sets of 8 each leg
Builds the unilateral leg strength that elite skaters use to push off harder, not just faster. Fast-twitch power without the hip mobility limit that single-leg work fixes.
FORWARD LEAN / KNEE BEND
Box Step Downs
3 sets of 10 each leg, controlled tempo
Eccentric loading at the bottom of the skating position. Trains the quad and hip control that lets a player hold deep knee bend without losing power.
EXPLOSIVE POWER WEAKNESS
Lateral Bounds
3 sets of 10 each direction
Trains the ground reaction force needed for the first stride. Players with weak first steps almost always lack lateral explosive output, not raw leg strength.
Every prescription comes from the same biomechanics framework used with elite-level players. The drills get harder as your player gets better. Three examples shown here. The full prescription updates with every analysis as your player progresses.

BUILT FOR REAL ICE. NOT A LAB.

Most skating analysis tools break the moment your camera moves. HLH was built for real practice conditions where you are on the ice, other players are cutting through the frame, and you are following your player with a handheld phone.

Our 3D engine isolates the target player from the chaos, reconstructs their full skeletal movement in world space, and delivers accurate biomechanical data regardless of how the shot was captured.

No tripod required
Other players in the frame handled automatically
Accurate from any angle on the ice
Moving camera. Handheld phone. Same result.

YOLOv8 Player Detection
Isolates your player from teammates, boards, and background movement in every frame.

ViTPose Keypoint Extraction
Maps 17 biomechanical landmarks across the player skeleton with vision transformer precision.
3
MotionBERT 3D Reconstruction
Lifts 2D keypoints into world-space 3D coordinates, eliminating camera angle and perspective distortion entirely.

REAL DATA. REAL IMPROVEMENT.

This is what 8 weeks of consistent HLH-guided training looks like for a real 14U AAA forward. Same metrics, same platform, same process your player would follow.

Full Metric Suite

11 ELITE METRICS. ONE REPORT.

Based on peer-reviewed biomechanical research โ€” University of Calgary, York University, and published NCAA skating studies

Most skating apps give you 3-4 basic angles. HLH measures 11, including 5 advanced biomechanical metrics that no other consumer app offers.

STANDARD BIOMECHANICS
๐Ÿฆต
KNEE BEND
Deep knee bend means more power. Elite forwards hit 87 to 95 degrees, most youth players are at 110 to 125 degrees.
โ†—
FORWARD LEAN
More lean drives acceleration. Elite skaters lean 40 to 55 degrees from vertical. More lean shifts the center of gravity forward and forces the legs to generate maximum power on every push.
๐Ÿƒ
HIP EXTENSION
Full hip extension means maximum power per stride. Elite target is 107-110ยฐ.
โš–
L/R SYMMETRY
Equal left and right mechanics means efficient straight-line speed. Under 8ยฐ gap is elite. A large symmetry gap also means one leg absorbs more force on every stride, the same imbalance that leads to groin strains and hip injuries over time.
๐Ÿฆถ
ANKLE EXTENSION
The toe flick at the end of each stride. The most under-coached mechanic in youth hockey.
โšก
STRIDES PER SECOND
Elite forwards hit 1.7-1.8 strides/sec. More strides with full extension means maximum top speed.
โšก ADVANCED BIOMECHANICAL INTELLIGENCE โ€” EXCLUSIVE TO HLH
๐Ÿ’ฅ
NHL Development Standard
EXPLOSIVE POWER
Angular velocity in degrees per second, measuring how fast each stride fires. NHL draft prospects average 850 to 950 degrees per second.
๐Ÿ”ฅ
Speed Killer Detector
POWER LEAKS
Counts every stride where energy escapes instead of driving forward. Elite: under 3 per session.
๐ŸŽฏ
Coordination Science
TRIPLE EXTENSION SYNC
Hip, knee, and ankle coordination score. 100% = every joule of energy goes into the ice.
๐Ÿ“
Camera-Agnostic
STRIDE LENGTH RATIO
Ice coverage per push relative to body size. Accurate regardless of filming distance. Elite: 0.70+.
