Hockey, but with kissing. And other stuff. >.> A hockey RPF comm.
This is all hockey's fault tbh
UM SO THIS IS A THING MY ANXIETY-RIDDEN ASS IS ABOUT TO DO??? Oh lord help me, I have the physical coordination of a potato but I really want to at least know what it’s like and learn to skate in sedate circles during a recreational skate. Heaven knows I will probably be put in the “all ages but really only a lot of tiny children” class but I WILL AT LEAST TRY THIS
And I am posting it here so I can't chicken out.




Do your best! :D
Thank you!
That's awesome! Tell us how you liked it after.
I thought I fully grasped the reality of "ice is slippery, duh" but I WAS WRONG. But I survived and did not totally shame my Dutch ancestors, so on to next week.
Yay! Just remember that highly trained professional hockey players fall on their asses ALL THE TIME. I hope you have a fabulous time!
Go you!!!
:)
Yay! I have also decided to try because hockey, just need to be in a country with actual winter and ice first >.>
I know rollerblades are way out of vogue these days, but that's how I got good at ice skating. Beware the road, though! It is perhaps even less forgiving than ice. Though there is often the possibility of flopping off into the grass at least.
Welcome to the Want-to-learn-to-ice-skate-because-hockey-players-make-it-look-so-easy-and-graceful-and-fun Club! I haven't done it yet, but it's on my to-do list. (It's the one item on the list that could well involve my ending up in a full body cast soon!) Good luck! Let me know how you like it!
I managed to wrestle my skates on, learn how to fall down, and shuffle along the boards for most of the short end of the arena. I also managed not to swear violently in the presence of many tiny children, so all in all the event was nerve-wracking but a tentative success XD
Yay! for tentative successes without broken bits!
Yay you!
:)
