skates have come a long way since the concept was first thought of thousands of years ago. This is probably a good thing considering that the oldest pair of ice skates, has been found. Dating from 3000 BC, the first pair of shoes were made from leg bones of large animals. The holes were then at each end and leather straps used to tie on. Everyone is probably no doubt by the fact that some progressions have been made in recent years.

It was not until the 14th century the Dutch started using wooden platform skates with flat-bottomed steel rails to slide on the ice for ice skates were attached to the skater shoes with leather straps and the poles were used to to help all skaters. However, progress has been made in 1500 when he added a sword of double-edged thin metal which means that people could slip with his feet and did not need more than the poles.

Not much has been done in the world of ice skates until 1848 when the first all steel clamp was invented. This was shortly followed by the introduction of two plate all metal sheets. The blade is attached directly to the boots that made dance moves, jumps and turns as possible. In 1870 takes the first digit was added to ice skates has allowed for the first time foot jumps.

The only problem with ice skates at this point was that they were not very comfortable, can not be used for a long time. This was changed in about 1859, when James Whelpley of Canada has developed a shoe that is well suited for long distance skating. This meant that a number of new possibilities for ice skates. People can now enjoy more free time skating, games can be played on them and activities such as figure skating took off.

ice skates was revolutionized in 1914 when producers an advantage of Minnesota, USA invented the first closed toe blade, which was made of one piece of steel. This has made the shoes lighter and stronger, which is especially useful in sports like figure skating and ice hockey.

There is no doubt that the ice skates are now more comfortable and easier to carry than they were for thousands of years. And “why skating is an activity so important if people are professionals or just for fun.

most of what I spoke in particular for recreational skating, which is the type of skating I do.

recreational skating is the most popular form of skating. You pay a few dollars to rent skates and into the ice. Public Skating times are available at most rinks.

addition to recreational skating, there are figure skating, speed skating and hockey.
I confess that I

been a big fan of figure skating. In this sport, the skaters perform routines, often jump, turn, turn, triple, quadruple and now Lutz. Figure skating is a demanding sport that requires a high level of athleticism and an understanding of the laws of physics. When the skaters do their thing is a case study after another in the friction, the angular momentum, spin and speed off. A large amount of energy needed to start a skater in a jump, to support a tour, or control on landing. And of course figure skating is a sport that emphasizes grace, control, balance and concentration.

more difficult routine is the jump of a skater. Spectators hold their breath, as the figure skaters launch into a jump to see if the ground successfully. The most difficult step is the axis, where the skater starts a leap forward, running forward from the left outer edge of the blade, complete 1 1 / 2 twists in the air and lands back on the right to travel “back to the Tues Another difficulty is the Lutz jump where the skater travels back in an outer edge of the shoe, use the tip of the opposite foot to help launch the jump, and turn right into the air. These jumps are called after the skaters who invented them.

Another type of skating that deserves mention is the speed skating. As the name implies, this type of speed skating is everything. There is a long track and short track. Skaters on a circular track sprints, and won the best skater. The movement speed skating is unique. He leans forward on the sides so that their torsos are perpendicular to the legs and arms move back and forth to help drive it forward as quickly as possible.

last December I was at the Petit National Ice Center in Milwaukee, which is a speed skating center used by members of the United States Olympic speed-skating team. There I saw some of the long track national championships. What I can say first hand observation of these athletes are very fast – more than 30 miles per hour. During the competition, someone from my hometown of Janesville WI set a new lap record in the 1,500-meter race.

national championships two skaters race at a time. Because the outside lane is greater than the inside lane, skaters change lanes after each round. There are also racing style package, consisting of six to eight skaters compete simultaneously in a single lane. In these competitions, competitors can use the following wording wind directly behind the leader to reduce wind resistance and save energy.

The last type of skating you want to mention is hockey. Ice hockey is a popular sport in which two teams try to hit a record with a hockey stick in a network protected by a goalkeeper. Each team gets 5 skaters on the ice, so that hockey is a team sport where the offensive strategy, defensive strategy, and teamwork are essential. Like figure skating and speed skating, hockey is an Olympic sport. Hockey is a sport popular enough to support a professional hockey league, a league that began in 1920. More than 25 teams from the United States and Canada compete each year for the Stanley Cup. Our local team is the Phoenix Coyotes. But, unfortunately this year the season is on hold due to a labor dispute management /. But there is still a lot of amateur hockey happening all the time.
