I don't want to touch to skates anymore. I used to like ice skating when I was small but as I grew up I couldn't find fitting skates anymore and I didn't like it as much.

I had to use small skates once in junior high school and my feet got so f*cked up that I almost couldn't take the skates off because it hurt so much. I was barely unable to walk for 2 weeks and I had wounds and bruises all over my feet. I never touched skates after that.

I wonder why my 5 % vote became a 100 % vote, but you may have it. I agree, if the skates won't fit and cause injury it is not fun.

I'm still willing to try if I can get these fit my feet the next time, after all I paid almost 200€ for them. They felt nice in the store so I'm intrigued why my feet started aching in them on the ice.

Well, I'm fine with an 100% upvote too, thanks :) And I wonder if feet get used to skates over some time, probably.

Although you will forget the DSLR to take better photos and blurry photos, the happiness that is seen in Leo and Miro while they skate, it makes them great pictures

Suffice to say I had a pretty hard time convincing the boys it was time to leave

LOL
It sounds familiar to me, my nephews usually tell me it's 5 more minutes please, Uncle Juan, and for 5 minutes in 5 minutes we spend an hour more

Holy Saint Maria, I haven't skated for I don't know how long. My legs already forgot how to do it. To learn it should be harder than to learn how to walk again.

I put on my skates after 25 years last winter. That last time I had used them was in upper secondary school. They were too small.

They sure do!

Yes, that's true. Although I wonder if I had managed to bring it along. I will probably need a carrying bag for those skates. Also, if I had remembered to take the camera, it would also have been very vulnerable to being out in the open for thieves to pick up and carry away.

I wonder if I should choose beforehand whether I want to skate myself, or take photos.

I figure skated for 2 years. It's been almost 3 years since I stopped, but I can still do a pretty waltz jump

What happiness is to share with the children. I took my daughters three years ago to skate on the ice in a park here in Venezuela, the Avila magica, they were delighted and did not want to go, but my wife managed to take some pictures.

I love skating when I was young it was one of the most fun thing I could do, now it seems to me a suicidal mission with imminent danger of fatality, I think that is called aging, but your kiddos have a great time is what really matters if they fall, they just get up again as if nothing happened is incredible, so are the children. Best luck @gamer00.

@gamer00,
It seems like your children enjoyed that skating session well! What about the temp out there? I feel frozen :D If I was there I will definitely a death body :D (I hate such low temp, I know my body can't react it)

Cheers~
