NHL 24: Best Skating Style, How to Skate Faster

Get ready to glide across the ice with zero resistance by making sure your skater has the best skating style in NHL 24. With a few key changes, and the use of the right NHL 24 controls, you can learn how to skate faster than ever.

Whether you're looking to build an epic career in Be A Pro or seeking a competetive edge in World of Chel, a few small changes will make a big difference. We'll outline how to skate faster in NHL 24 and the best skating style you want to use online or offline.

How to Skate Faster in NHL 24

If you want to skate faster in NHL 24, all you have to do is press the Left Stick or L3 to activate Hustle. Of course, that may not always be the right course of action, and knowing when not to Hustle is just as important.

Like most sports games, the sprint function among the NHL 24 controls can be easy to lean on in a pinch. However, players should be careful to only Hustle briefly to get around defenders or gain separation. After you have a better position, release the Left Stick to allow your skater to regain control.

While using Hustle, you'll have significantly lessened puck control which makes it easier to steal the puck away. You'll also find shots and passes have better accuracy when you've allowed your skater to readjust, so generally you don't want to Hustle once you're in the offensive zone.

Best Skating Style in NHL 24

If you're playing in Be A Pro offline or diving into World of Chel online, you'll actually have the option of manually defining your skating style. While other game modes use the skating styles applicable to each player, your custom players in these allows you to define every detail from stick height to upper body twist.

Go to Edit Player in either game mode, and look for the Skating Styles option at the bottom right on the same screen where you select your player's gear preferences. Here are the settings you need for the best skating style in NHL 24:

• Spine Angle: 99
• Spine Curve: 0
• Stride Gait: 99
• Stride Distance: 99
• Stride Height: 30
• Upper Body Twist: 99
• Hustle Style: Style 3
• Hustle Arm Swing Motion: 99
• Hustle Arm Snap: 99
• One Handed Arm Swing: 99
• One Handed Stick Swing: 99
• One Handed Stick Height: 0
• Two Handed Stick Swing: 99
• Two Handed Stick Angle: 0
• Two Handed Stick Sweep: 99

While earlier in the year you'd also have to manually edit this skating style in World of Chel for both your Home and Away skater settings, it should automatically populate the change for both versions following the most recent NHL 24 update. Now you can take to the ice and know you're going as fast as possible in NHL 24.
