Tips for a Fun & Safe Skating Session
Wear comfortable clothing - not too tight but not too baggy
Gloves will keep your hands warm and provide protection if you fall
Wear comfortable socks
Do not wear a scarf - it could be dangerous to you and others
Tie your skates up to your ankle to ensure maximum comfort
Before getting onto the ice, try walking around to get used to the feel and weight of your skates
Whilst safety gear is not provided, patrons are welcome to bring their own eg, helmets, elbows and knee pads.
