Just had to share with you. I don't know if I can describe vividly what I saw at the rink the other day, but it puts a smile on my face when I think about this scene.
I was practicing with my coach and got distracted by this very tall, lithe guy. He was a guest with skate rentals. He enlightened me. He taught me what skating was all about... or not about:
Imagine a tall, skinny guy walking around the rink in toepicks. So... why get skate rentals? So he walked in toepicks around the rink several times like a four-legged animal walking on hind legs. He was smiling and obviously very proud of himself. I bet he'll brag to his friends about how skating is easy and how he didn't fall once :lol:
