How To Make An Ice Skating Floor Without Spending A Lot Of Money? And U Live In The Caribbean, So It’s Sunny
October 1st, 2009 by admin
Me and my friend want to make an ice skating floor, (or like an arena), but we don’t want to spent a lot of money. And where we live isn’t cold, so does anyone have an idea how to do that? please answer as quick as you can.











if you want to make an arena, that is going to cost millions of dollars like 8million or 9 million.
if you just want a small ice (not as big as a rink), i guess you can still try synthetic ice, but its still going to be expensive (not in the millions though)
Synthetic Ice called Super-glide is easy to create a rink with. It is recommended to be used indoors, so if you have extra money you can build a building that is full blasted airconditioning and use the synthetic ice there.
Synthetic ice is cheaper than a full blast ice rink, but it isn’t always the same. So always look at all the options before settling on this one.
What about synthetic ice? It may be a bit expensive, but there’s no need for compressors, heat/air, cooling coils, a dehumidification system…….or even a Zamboni! I think some areas, where it is nice outside year-round (uggg, not where I live!), have outdoor rinks made of this stuff. I’ve never tried it, but it sounds pretty cool!http://www.syntheticiceusa.com/
Supposedly, you can do everything you can do on ice on this surface. I’m not sure what kind of toll it takes on your blades, but I saw some hockey kids using something similar the other day, practicing shots in their regular skates. :)
There is a special type of floor that you can buy, that is suppose to simulate ice skating. No idea what it’s called though. It’s probably pretty expensive, too
