Abstract:
A training aid for skaters includes an enlarged block made from a soft resilient material and including an elongated exterior wall which has an upwardly facing exterior surface. An arrangement is provided for permitting removable support of the block on the skater's torso with the exterior wall projecting from the skater's neck below and significantly forwardly beyond the skater's chin with the exterior surface positioned closely adjacent and below the skater's chin. The resilient block is made from a material which is sufficiently opaque to obstruct normal vision therethrough, thereby obstructing the skater's vision of his skates and a portion of the ice immediately forwardly thereof.
