I Am What I Am asked:


I am 20 yrs old girl. I started interested in ice hockey a few month ago.
I am too late to join ice hockey team? I have basics in ice skate but not so good. I seldom went to the ice rinks because of my studies.
How much the equipment cost and did i have to buy it all that?

Anyone know how to join an ice hockey team in Malaysia?

My little brother and I just skate just for fun, no major sports and stuff involved. Our dad said since we skate so much, we might as well save money and get our own skates. I already got mine, but I still need to find a pair for my little brother. He likes hockey skates the best because they’re well padded, but we have absolutely no idea what to look for and such. Thank you!

So just how long would it take for a hockey player(amateur or proffesional players) to adjust to speed skating(short track or long track)? And vice versa.(speed skating to hockey)

*Both hockey players and speed skaters use the same muscles for powerskating.

*Speed skates have more blade on ice for efficiency while hockey skates tend to have shorter blades for maneuver.

I don’t play hockey or take lessons. I have a pair of hockey skates and I know how to skate backwards but how do you do it fast? I see hockey players skate backwards soooooo fast. When some people(mostly hockey players) skate they start like they are jumping side to side it’s hard to explain. HOw do you do that also? Any other tips?
