Ice Skating....Fun, but maybe it's not for me....

Yeah, ice skating, moving on ice by using on ice. 2 days ago, me, with 5 of my friends tried this sport, which wikipedia said that the earliest ice skating happened 4000 years ago, great right?

Indonesia is a tropical country, so there's no winter in this country, but still, we can do an ice skating, we don't need to go to europe or what to do this sport. one of the popular, or the most popular ice rink here in Indonesia, as I know, is located in Mall Taman Anggrek, and yesterday, we tried this ice rink.

In my opinion, the ticket price is pretty cheap, with IDR 48.000, you already can use the ice rink for 2 hours, and they also lend you the boots, cheap huh?? :) at first, I think the price will be about IDR 100.000 or above, because of the place and ice skating is not a cheap sport, so I'm happy with the price :)

The most difficult thing about ice skating, for me, is balancing your body and control it. when I first tried to stand up using the skiing shoes, still on the floor, it's pretty difficult, you must stand only with 2 thin blade, and walk with it. When I tried to do it on the ice, soooo difficult, you can't imagine how slippery is the ice.

I tried to move and I succeed, but still, it's not the way to do this sport. do you want to know how I moved?? my right leg was stood still and I bent my left leg, and moved it backward, it's lame...but at least I'm succeed to moved, not only standing still on the wall, watching other players...

My conclusion, ice skating is totally fun!! if I have a chance, I want to learn this sport deeply, so maybe one day I can do a back flip on the ice :p but for now, this sport Isn't for me, hahaha...
