i started ice skating for about two months last winter. im thirteen years old and live in minnesota and i loved it but i was a little discouraged feeling that i was a little old to be starting, even though i was told that i wasnt. i wanted to progess faster and practice more than i did and could. i have an ice arena by my house but im not comfortable with taking lessons with other, mostly likely younger skaters. i want to start it back up again but usually how long does it take to become "good"? Good meaning learning tricks and not stuff like going backwards, bunny hops, and two foot spins. I really want to ice skate, but I'm just not sure I have the patience to become good, though I am pretty flexible and a fast learner. I also dont know how to practice in the summer, since theres no outdoor rinks. What's your opinion?
