notice he turned sideways and leans back so the sides of his skates stop his momentum

Man, my hockey stop is still so pathetic. Sometimes I spray a wee bit of snow.

My left stop is getting there, but my right skate still hops and I fall.

That's pretty cool, AvsGirl! I'm sure you'll get your hockey stop down. We need more chicks playing hockey.


I need to learn how to skate...

You should! Skating is fun!

I am meeting more and more girls who play...there's actually several women's leagues here in Colorado. I'm not sure if I will join them as they seem super competitive.

Even though I threaten to sell my equipment after each session, it is fun.

Ah, the days when I played hockey *nostalgic sigh*

my sister in law played hockey. she would like to start up again however being a mother of 4 very young children is preventing her from playing. so she just opts to roller blade with the kids instead. she almost convienced me to sign up for lessons a few years back, hence the fact i own a pair of hockey skates.

maybe i should sign up for skating lessons too. it is great exercise.

This is incorrect. Hockey is not played on a field of slippery, frozen water. It is played on a field of grass, although they often use synthetic grass nowadays (just like they have at some American Football fields). Thus, there is no reason to skate, as players can walk on the field with their sticks.
Stick, another essential attribute in a hockey game. It has the pecularity that...
