OK I have read the thread and I just had to say that Darrin uses the hop step a lot and finds it works beautifully for him. However, that being said...when at the National Player Development tryouts in Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region they HATED IT! He was docked because of using it and had to eliminate it from his play for the remainder of the tryouts so that he wouldn't be docked any more. So for as much as I think it works and works well it seems to depend on where you are and who is evaluating you.
On a side note, all of those coaches who hated it SWORE no one at the NHL level used it and we pointed out several who do. They still denied it LOL. But Darrin did still advance to the National camp in July.
