Daniel Broberg has spent two summers on the ice with Rasmus Dahlin, and the first thing he will tell you is that the best skaters in the world almost never go full speed.
In this episode Kevin McKinnon, Train 2.0's Director of Coaching, sits down with Daniel Broberg, the Swedish skills coach behind DB Hockey Factory, to get into the philosophy he sums up as find the balance, find the glide, smooth power: the one body part he cues before anything else and why it fixes the hip, knee and foot angle on its own, the reason 97% of his drills keep the puck on the stick, what happens to strong 15 and 16 year olds the moment they start pushing too hard, why he tells Jesper Bratt the same thing day after day every summer, and a take on Nathan MacKinnon that most Canadian coaches will not love.
Watch the full episode for the posture cue, the Bratt turn Kevin shows his own players, and why the ice never gets any bigger.

The Downhill Skating System is the mechanics-first approach that unlocks effortless, controlled speed on the ice without extra conditioning, pushing or "trying harder." Inspired by the movement signatures of players like Connor McDavid, Nathan MacKinnon, Cale Makar, Quinn Hughes, and other elite NHL skaters, this system teaches you how to move on the ice with gravity, using your body's own stretch shortening cycles mixed with the most efficient footwork patterns and various skating mechanics.
Most players skate "uphill": stiff, blocky, pushing hard, creating tension and burning energy like we were always taught in traditional power skating. Downhill skating flips that model. By using counter rotation, proper joint angles, and natural gravitational momentum, we teach you to move faster with less effort.
Inside Train 2.0+ you'll learn to:
1) Unlock the inner spring for better acceleration.
2) Use direction changes that keep you deceptive and hold your optionality.
3) Build NHL superstar mechanics, instead of repatterning the wrong movements.
4) Turn these mechanics into in game assets, completely changing your player DNA and development trajectories.
