Haha, our school organised that for PE every fortnight we go down to the bay to do Ice Skating. I'd say I got used to it pretty fast, I still fall over though. xD; We only have to pay £2.50 so it's pretty worth it.
There was nothing. Followed by everything. Swirling, burning specks of creation that circled life-giving suns. And then we reached to the light.

My middle school had a big enough gym that every February they would let us spend a month rollerblading. I didn't fall that much because I had already learned to ice skate, but the one time I did fall happened to be the time I sprained my wrist. I haven't rollerbladed or ice skated too much since.

I never really had a problem ice skating after I got over my fear that I'd fall and have someone slice off my fingers with their skates. I was am a morbid child.
No don't worry I worried about the exact same thing.

Oh yeah, that can totes happen. I'm pretty sure my first experience ice skating was with school, and the teachers were ridiculously wary about being sued so were sure to go through EVERY! SINGLE! PRECAUTION! they could think of before letting us out on the ice for if-10 minutes. Having one's finger sliced off through a reckless skater has been seared onto my brain for a while now because of it.

Ice skating...I like it. I've only been ice skating a couple of times, though. What a shame. =\ I have never fallen on ice. I don't know why.

I noticed that whenever I post here the first post of the day for me is always in here.

Oh God ice-skating. I've been about 3 times in my life, it's horrible. I circle the edge of the rink, clinging to the railing for dear life. Cannot do.
I'm sorry.. I thought about you doing that and laughed so hard

No worry. Odd's are the doctors might be able to reattach it if it happens.


If it did happen, it wouldn't get cut off though. The blades are blunted on the front so it wouldn't be able to slice through it. Could snap it off though.

What about skiing? Anyone try skiing?

Anyway, I have no plans of going ice skating this year anyway. I do plan to do as much as I can this winter, though.

Oh gosh Skiing. I was never good with that. I failed really badly. I never been on the snow before so when I went skiing for the first time, I couldn't stop myself from going down the hill in North Carolina. -Doesn't want to bring back the memories- Now for Ice skating, I haven't done that in years! It's been so long since I have done that. I probably fail at it now if I tried.

They'd be able to reattach only if they haven't been separated for long to preserve nerves etc.

We don't have snow here so I don't ski/ice skate..I've wanted to try it though

Besides Ice Skating, I never went Skiing, Snowboarding, or even Snowmobiling (if that counts). I'm not a snow person whatsoever :(

I wanna try snowboarding though.

I wonder whether it can be easy to lose balance that way...
It can be if you don't have a good sense of balance or hit a bad patch of ice, but that rarely happens to me. I regularly have to walk across ice in the winter because many walkways aren't properly cleared, so it just comes natural to me.

Personally, I'd really like to give snowmobiling a try. It sounds quite fun zipping across lakes and fields at 60 miles per hour. If I didn't live in the city it'd be a viable substitute for a car in the winter! Snowboarding might be something I'd try, but I dunno. Certainly would be more fun than ice fishing.

Snowboarding is not fun for me. I can't do it. I want to learn how to snowboard better.

I want to try Snowboarding. I might do better then Skiing since it's so difficult. First time being in the snow that was melting, it wasn't that great. Snowboarding seems to be a lot of fun and easier to take control of but then again, I'm not even sure myself since I never done it before.

I tried snowboarding. That failed. Tried skiing. I ended up cracking some bones. I don't have plans to do either activity anytime in the near future.
It sure sounded dangerous from how you put it... I think I might not want to do any of these any time soon, especially with such a poor balance!

Skiing sounds dangerous...I still want to try skiing anyway. It sounds like fun. But knowing me, I'll fail miserably at it...but it is still worth a try anyway...

Well, anyway, does anyone go away in the winter? I usually don't...

I wish we would go away, but my parents are oddly addicted to the cold weather. If they had any common sense, we would have been living in Florida ever since they retired.

Oh, and no winter sports for me. My distaste for cold weather combined with my complete lack of athletic ability pretty much sealed the fate.
