Skater's Dictionary

1. The one who keeps darting from the wall to the center and back for the sole purpose of being in the way.

2. Anyone who thinks their issue is sooooo important it warrants going the wrong way.

4. That dude that kept hockey stopping in front of his female companion. Apparently to see if she would “fall” for him.

That one inliner noob who skates and tries to be fast and thinks he is cool, so he removes his brakes and ends up not knowing how to stop, causing fast skating to be only aloud very rarely.


This has been an issue at my local rink.

I like that one. different rinks are different. I have two rinks I go to a lot near me. one has an eye of the storm, the other is kinda the opposite. The first all the rentals are holding (sometimes literally) onto the outside wall, so if you wanna skate, you gotta go to the middle lanes, but the inside has a few wobbly skaters too, so not the middle middle. At the other rink, the slow skaters have taken the middle lanes and if you wanna skate fast, you go to the outside wall, if you wanna dance, there is an eye of the storm. That's how it should be (in my egocentric opinion). BTW, that latter one would be Pattison's West in Seattle, for those of you who care.
