My daughter loves watching ice skating. I can't wait to take her one day. She's only 2.5 years old. I hope she'll enjoy it as much as she likes watching people ice skate. I can skate around the rink but that's about all I can do on skates though.

DH teaches skating on the weekends.
Can't wait to get my boy on skates. He likes to "skate" slide around on the tile floor, haha

Ha ha, no. This is Florida. I don't even know where I would go to ice skate. I can only think of one person I even know who skates well, but he's from Buffalo, NY.

Yes! I used to figure skate when I was a kid. I think we are going to try to go when we are in Atlanta this weekend.

Yes! I used to figure skate. I'm not amazing, but I can do some basic jumps (lutz, loop, etc.) and spins - okay, pretty much only one spin, a scratch spin. I lost my sit spin quickly after I stopped skating on a regular basis.

Yep. Used to play hockey and also did figure skating. DD will be on skates as soon as she can walk

Yes, I love ice skating. The last time I skated I took a REALLY bad fall though, so it's been almost 10 years since I have skated again.

I can manage my way around the ring. Don't push me though or hold my hand or anything else! haha!

@rachiecakes: @MamaMoose: @wonderstruck: @MapleMoose: so cool! I love watching figure skating! Now I watch the little kids do spins and jumps at our local rink. They're so cute!
@bpcmarj: oh no! Hope you get to try it again!
@Alivoo01: haha, that's my kind of skating. And I stop by running into the side.

I can fall really well! And I own ice skates. I grew up in the south and the one time my dad went ice skating he busted his head open. We'll just say I had a late start.

I know how to go around the rink but I'm not terribly good. I used to love going as a kid!

Not well, but I can't wait to get my little guy on skates! I wanna by a hockey mom!
@rachiecakes: What age are you planning to start yours in skating?

Yep. I was a fairly serious figure skater until I was 16 and realized I wasn't quite going to make the Olympic track and should focus on things that actually had a real future beyond like... being in Disney on Ice, and I coached little kids figure skating. DH attended college on a hockey scholarship so it's going to be a battle in this this house as to which kind of skates we start on, but pretty much intend get her on the ice as soon as she can walk reliably.

@lemondrop: soon! He turns two next week. We've found that most skates start in a toddler size 6 and he's almost there. Maybe in the spring?
