Technology and construction
Stick-blade bases
The hockey stick-blade shaped bases create a more game-like obstacle than standard cones. In practice, they help players work on puck movement, direction changes and stick control in tighter spaces.
Cut-resistant belt
The cut-resistant belt connects both bases and creates a wider obstacle element. Its 8' / 2.5 m length allows players to build drills focused on agility, puck control and precise movement around barriers.
Pop-off belt and clamp design
The belt and clamp are designed to pop off rather than break if someone trips over them. This helps protect the equipment during demanding drills and makes it easier to reset the setup.
High-impact rubber and steel
The combination of durable rubber and steel provides strength for repeated use. The rubber section is also safer for skate blades if a player steps on it during training.
Mooring pins / anchors
The anchoring system helps keep the bases in place and reduces unwanted sliding. A more stable setup is important during dynamic drills where players change direction or handle the puck at speed.
Who is this product for
The HockeyShot Rush Defender is intended for hockey players, coaches and instructors who want to create flexible drills for stickhandling, agility and puck control.
