Well, this all does depend on what you think good figure skating is. If you are talking about Olympic, World and International standard it takes years and years of training. If you are talking Country standard it will take at least several years. If you are talking just being able to do good amount of jumps e.g. 3 jump to axel to double salchow, a good amount of spins and spinning speed and able to do many edge work movements this may take a few years and if you just talking being able to skate forwards, backwards, do little 3 jump and slow 2 foot spin this may only take a year or year and half.

Ross Rebagliati became a household name in 1998 when he won the first ever Olympic gold medal for snowboarding! Whenever you think of snowboarding you think of Ross Rebagliati. Ross is current a coach of his own RASTA camps (Rebagliati Alpine Snowboard Training Academt). www.RossRebagliati.com. The most well-known snowboarder would have to be Shaun White, but he is NOWHERE near the best snowboarder. He is the Poster Child of one of the biggest company's "Burton", and he gets basically all the media attention at competitions and in commercials.

Speed skating is based on skating for speed, not style. Figure skating is the opposite, as it skates for style and not always speed.

Speed skating requires:

-Lower cut boot, almost like a shoe

-Longer blades than artistic skaters

-the objective is to go fast, not to impress the judges

Figure skating:

-based on competing in a number of levels and elements

-consists of jumps, spins and footwork

-artistry and difficulty are considered when judging

-higher cut boot

-regular length blade, but with a toe pick and edges

The roots of ice skating date back over 1,000 years to the frozen canals and waterways of Scandinavia and the Netherlands when men laced animal bones to their footwear and glided across frozen lakes and rivers.

There is a trail left behind; it is only as wide as the sharp end of the blade.

This trail can be seen quite easily if the ice is somewhat illuminated, or if viewed from an angle. For example, watch some Olympic or world championship skating on television (even ice hockey will do) and you can clearly indentify the many scratches in the ice surface,

Ignore the motorcycle picture. I'm trying to find somewhere where I can buy the original NON FAN JET 1979 Huggers wheels. The bearing is supposed to be about 90$ for just one. I really need to find this.

No. If you uninstall your true skate, then you cannot get it back for free.

Strong ankles, strong leg muscles, strong arms, grace, and no fear. Good balance is helpful, too. It also helps to learn the best way to fall in order to minimize injury, because there WILL be falls, especially when first learning to skate.

You have to lean slightly forward. and make sure your feet are on bolt. leaning backwards will cause the board to slipp out and you will most likley end up on the rail.

Aggressive skates are a brand for roller skates, as the name suggests. The brand focuses on roller skates only, the designs are all slightly boyish. This indicates that the brand is mainly focused on males as their group targets.

A good ice skating technique for beginners is for arms to be spread out to sides and to remember to keep knees slightly bent. Leaning slightly forward, keep ice skates in a V-shape. Slowly push one foot away from the other, breaking the V and becoming the lead foot. Lifting the non-leading foot, bring it back down onto the ice to remake the V before becoming the lead foot. Repeat.
