Learn ice skating techniques

Ice skating is a sport that many people like, but it is also a relatively difficult sport to learn, and it faces many dangers in the learning process. Therefore, when learning to skate, you must master certain skills, find a good venue, buy good equipment, and start learning to skate under the guidance of professionals. Below, I will introduce you to some detailed learning techniques for ice skating!

Relax

When beginners learn to skate, they must not be too nervous, but relax. The more nervous they are, the stiffer their limbs will be, making it difficult to skate.

Skating

When skating, you must pay attention to keeping your feet apart and skating in an outward-facing shape with the front wheel of the skates.

Hands swinging

Beginners are afraid of falling when skating because they feel that their sense of balance is not very good, so you can use your hands to swing to maintain your sense of balance.

Large space or small crowd

It is best for beginners to learn at a larger skating rink or one with fewer people, and try to avoid going on Saturdays and weekends.

Partners hand in hand

It is best for beginners not to go to the skating rink alone. It is best to bring a friend with you, and a friend who can skate, and learn hand in hand. This way you can learn faster. But one thing to note is that if you are about to fall, you must quickly let go of your partner's hand to prevent yourself from falling with him.

Studying by the wall/handrail

If you are alone, it is best to skate slowly along the wall of the skating rink. There are usually handrails on the wall, and you can skate slowly with your feet turned outward. This is also a way to learn quickly.

Anti-fall skate foot brake

If you feel like you are going to fall while skating, you can use the round foot brake on the front of the skates to "brake" in time to prevent falling.

The skates are the right size

It is recommended that beginners not only wear skates of the right size, but also tie the laces tightly. Although it will be a bit tiring, it is non-slip and it is quicker to learn. Once you have learned it, you don't need to tie the laces so tightly.

Be careful of water on the ground

Some people may accidentally spill water on the ground when drinking. Be sure to avoid places with water as it is easy to fall.
