do you think it is a good idea to build a backyard ice rink at my location?

November 27th, 2009   Posted by: admin

I live in the suburbs of pittsburgh, and i just got a brand new pair of hockey skates, but it is unrealistic for me to get to my nearest hockey rink as much as i would like to skate. just to give you an idea of the temperatures for this winter, our average temperature for the whole winter, november through april, is expected to be about 37 degrees, but i was looking to build a wood and tarp type rink only in the coldest of the winter. my yard is primarily level, but i was planning to fill in the low spots with fill, so its all even. i was just wondering would it be worth it to buy all the supplies and build the rink in my area? thank you for all your help in advance, i really, really appreciate. 10 points to most detailed, best answer.

Another take on “weak ankles” and fitting hockey skates?

November 24th, 2009   Posted by: admin

I am a reasonable skater. I can manage crossovers forwards and backwards etc but i dont really know much about skating..

Seems to me that a hockey shoe is more or less made for your average ankle. Guys and gals that have average feet are therefore likely to have a better experience of being on the ice first time and therefore more likely to pusue it.

Do i have an odd none average ankle shape? I think it is possible that i have a larger inside ankle bone than some. This means that when the shoe is fitted i am thrown outwards and will tend to have “weak ankles”. I have now altered my shoes so the ankle bones fit into the bulges created and the entire fit of the shoe is much more snug and secure.

I have cheap skates but want to buy “better”, but the ankle support “experience” in the shop is very very poor. My CCM 92s have 6″ of ankle height laced to 5″,

Any thoughts on this please?

Ice skating rentals, do they really effect you?

September 20th, 2009   Posted by: admin

I havent skated in a long time and I went to the rink today. Got some rentals and hit the ice, but couldnt find an edge at all!! In the past I had my own pair, but I went through two pairs of rentals before leaving without hitting my usual stride. Do rentals really effect your skating ability?
BTW, they were hockey skates

Ball/Street Hockey Leagues in NYC?

August 19th, 2009   Posted by: admin

I’m going to school at Columbia and moving to the city in a month. I’m looking for a competitive street hockey (not skates) league or good regular pickup game.

I’ve seen the blacktop league, but the games seem really, really low-key, and in any case the season is halfway over. Anybody know of games or a league I could join?

i want to get these, Razor Cult 7, aggressive skates?

July 26th, 2009   Posted by: admin

i’m 13, and i played roller hockey for years, what i mean is.. is that i already know how to skate.
I skateboard too, but i want to get into rollerskating street style too.
I found these Razor Cult 7 skates, i don’t know much about aggressive skates (because i usually look for hockey roller skates), is this a good “aggressive” skate to buy? And if not, what other skates do you suggest (online links would be appreciated!) ?
and i’m willing to pay NO more than $200.
Please Help Me !!! thanks much.
