Where are the stores that sells ice skates in the Philippines?

Apparently there is no Ice Skating Specialty store in the Philippines. There are small stores beside the Ice Skating rinks at both mall -- MOA and Southmall.

Should you wish to buy, you may either look through online shops or 2nd hand and surplus shops around the metro. My best bet though would be ask assistance from your Ice Skating coach re buying your skates.

When did skaters start?

Skating has its roots in the 12th century in Scandinavia, where people used wooden or metal blades attached to shoes to glide over ice. The modern sport of skateboarding emerged in the late 1940s and early 1950s in California, when surfers began to create a land-based version of their sport. This evolution led to the formation of skateboarding culture, which gained significant popularity through the 1960s and 1970s.

What is the proper way to clean ice skate blades?

The proper way to clean our ice skates is:

1. Get a paper towel, napkin, or wash cloth and wet it slightly

2. If there are a lot of dirt marks then put a little soap or dishwashing soap

3. Gently wipe the whole skate down

4.If you really really want them sparkling and want to get ALL of the scratch and dirt marks off you can use this chemical called Bestine, its safe but flammable (you can get it at your local hardware store)

5. Dry EVERYTHING with another paper towel or wash cloth

6. And lastly to clean the blade part just get a baby wipe and wipe it and dry it quickly and for no rust stains wipe the ice off after ice skating and put your soakers on the blade

Your skates will look good as new ( I wash mine once every week)
