Skating Attire

What Should the Skaters Wear?
Clothes that stretch are better than tight, restrictive or oversized clothes that would restrict movements.   A skater’s form-fitting clothing will enable the instructor/coach to see the skater’s body alignment and to provide the skater with proper advice and feedback about technique.  
•   Mittens or gloves should be worn.
•   Pants should not be excessively long or have wide flare.
•   Helmets are required for the Snowplow Sam classes. Bicycle helmets are permitted.
•   New skates must be sharpened before the 1st day of class.
•   The skates must be securely tied. Laces should be snug through the angle area, but allow for some flexibility.
•   No gum chewing is allowed on the ice
