What do I need For ice skating?

Im going to an ice skating camp, but I have no idea what kind of clothes to wear or what else to bring! Any suggestions?

What do I need For ice skating?
Check what programs they have there like if they have ballet you may need ballet shoes


But you will for sure need


skates


nylons,sweat pants, mitts, sweater, dress, skirt


your music


snacks


water bottle


money (for calling people on pay phone, buying food)


muscle rub


And if you wish


spinner


yoga mat/towel


skipping rope





If you want to make a good impression then you should wear a skating dress with nylons with no holes in them and clean your skates





Hope this is enough info
Reply:ok. So, bring lots of warm clothes and plenty of bottles of water because ice skating is hard work! Bring gloves, scarf and towels (for you or your skates). Make sure your clothes wont drag on the ice and dont bring clothes which will get soaked if you fall over (eg trackie bottoms) hope that helps and have fun!!!
Reply:After reading all other responses, thought I had better mention PLASTERS!!!! All that skating you're gonna do may hurt!
Reply:(All this information is based on that your attending a higher level camp, not just a begginers camp, though the items work both ways.)





SKATES!!! long fitted pants that STRETCH!!!!!!!!! (you can get these at target for about $20) a bag to carry your skates in ( I would recommend one with wheels) you should probaly bring a beach towel (because you'll probably do off-ice), gloves, a jumprope, a re-fillable water bottle, COMFORTABLE jogging shoes, and probably a warm sweater (that you can move in) to wear when your on the ice.


Hope this helps.......... and have fun!
Reply:wera yoga pants or jazz pants.. make sure that they are full length. Gloves, layers of shirts and maybe a jacket depending on how cold the rink is. Of course your skates and socks and if you wear them boot covers.
Reply:You should talk to the rink/director that is running the camp or see if there is some type of brochure that says what you will need for the camp. I would guess that you should bring some clothes that are good for skating (like knit exercise type pants, a t shirt, a jacket, and gloves). i would certainly check to see if there are any specifics that you need to bring though they should be able to tell you what you need and what types of things to bring.

If you're wearing Firgure Skates, you should since you posted in that category, here is what you should wear:





Thin socks, as thin as tights, or thinner.


Pants, jeans are bad, and a skirt is better for figure skaters.


Layers, thne when you get hot, you can take the layers off.


If you can't skate real well and will think you will fall, bring knee pads, maybe, and wear them UNDER your pants.





Bring:


Money, there are always vending machines or arcade games.


A snack, sometimes the food is overpriced.








That's about it and Happy Skating!
Reply:Check the brochure; different camps require different things.


If you plan to take private lessons during the freestyle practice sessions, talk to your coach to schedule the time. If you don't have a coach, you can ask whichever coach you want, or ask for a recommendation. (Make sure it's okay with your parents - it costs extra.)





At minimum, bring your skates (duh!), gloves, water bottle, jumprope, socks and sneakers. If you keep a practice log/journal, bring it with you to make notes.





They're probably doing off-ice workouts, so ask if you need a yoga mat or beach towel.





Find out if lunch is provided or if you have to bring/buy.





Wear layered clothing, so you can add layers to stay warm or take a few off to stay cool. Make sure it's all comfortable enough to skate in, so no jeans or tight-fitting clothes.





Have fun!

Reply:you need a person ice skates and a ice rink
Reply:Your Skill!
Reply:I say you should call up the camp and ask them if there are any certain things to brig along with you. Maybe some strench pants and maybe a skating dress? Those are some good choices. Have some gloves, a t shirt, a jacket, some stretchy pants. (don't forget stretchy) and of course your skates. Maybe some blankets to keep you warm and well...yeah. Look it up in the brochure...


Well, good luck! Hope this helps!
Reply:Well, my suggestion is to bring light clothes so when your ice skating you won't feel heavy or weighed down and you can do jump and spins better. Also you should bring padding's so if it's your first time you won't get hurt. I hope this helps. Good Luck!
