Ice skating? Anyone good?

Question

Okay, my friend has been doing skate lessons since she was like 5. She wants me to join the class. Obviously I will be way behind, but it's just for fun who cares? I'm just asking, what do you NEED to ice skate. Obviously ice skates, that doesn't count lol.

Answer 1

Really that's all you need to get started.   Make sure you wear warmer clothes and stretchy material.  You will do just fine.

I skated for years.  You will love it!

Answer 2

Money lol.

If and when you fall, watch out for your hands because the skates' blade is really sharp and I don't know any ice skating rink with red ice if you catch my drift. ;)

Answer 3

Patience. You probably won't be perfect your first time. Skill, yoou need to have some idea of what you're doing. Balance- you'll fall if you don't have it. And finally Confidence- Believe that you can be the best you can be!  

Answer 4

well..u need balance so u don't fall on ur butt...lol...but it takes a lot of skills. so I think u should definitely go for it.

Answer 5

I'm pretty Bomb at it myself, better than a lot of people i know. And if you either play hockey or use rollerblades then you'll be great at ice skating. The only reason i'm good at it is because i know how to rollerblade.
