Practicing speed and ice skating in general on Super-Glide synthetic ice allows players to get results in shorter period than on real ice because you have to put in more effort to overcome the slightly higher resistance of synthetic ice. What's more, by training on synthetic ice, you greatly improve your skating technique, as synthetic ice encourages the skater to strictly follow the requirements and recommendations for skating.

Goalie practice on Super-Glide synthetic ice allows goaltenders to hone their skills when real ice is not available or is very limited. The Super-Glide synthetic ice gives the #goalkeeper's skates a realistic feel, allowing them to practice drills they would normally only be able to do on real ice. Goalkeeping practice on Super-Glide #syntheticice is very effective and gives great results in a shorter amount of time.

Super-Glide synthetic ice has been successfully used by professional and amateur players and coaches for over two decades for full-scale practice and training. Many of them agree that Super-Glide is often even better in many aspects than real ice because:

• Regular hockey practice on Super-Glide increases strength, speed and stamina. 
• Stickhandling and skating coordination are also greatly improved.
• Super-Glide synthetic ice helps hockey players develop skills faster through unlimited practice time.
• Super-Glide synthetic ice makes hockey training affordable and practical.
• Practicing on Super-Glide synthetic ice helps to improve shooting accuracy, release time, to develop top-notch footwork and shoot harder.
• Hockey stops and slap shots can easily be done on Super-Glide synthetic ice.
• Super-Glide synthetic ice gives goalies faster reactions through more quality training time.

Practicing Hockey On Synthetic Ice

 

HOCKEY PRACTICE ON TRADITIONAL OR SYNTHETIC ICE?

The correct answer is on BOTH!

The features and benefits of traditional ice are known to everyone and are not subject to discussion.

However, it also has its limitations. The huge cost of construction, equipment, operation and maintenance, ice time deficit, the inaccessibility of training ice as happened during the current covid epidemic, require finding solutions to these and other problems.

Artificial ice rinks have been known for a long time. However, until recently, they could hardly be considered more than shooting pads. But with the development of technology, artificial ice, also known as synthetic ice, is increasingly used in hockey, including by professionals.

The main advantage of synthetic ice, in addition to almost zero operating costs, is the ability to build ice rinks of any size, practically anywhere, and operate at any time of the year, both indoor and outdoor. This provides a unique opportunity to organize full-fledged group and individual hockey training.

Super-Glide synthetic ice has been the benchmark for glide performance and assembly reliability from the very beginning. Continuous work to improve the quality of gliding for over 20 years, several patented technological solutions have led to a world record number of hockey training facilities equipped with Super-Glide synthetic ice that successfully operate for many years. And this is one of the main proofs of Super-Glide's superiority over all other synthetic ice surfaces.

Sock Ice Skating - A New Hot Trend in Family Entertainment & Recreation!

Unlike traditional ice skating, sock ice skating does not require skates and their sharpening. Skating on Super-Glide synthetic ice is also a safe activity and entertainment for the whole family, during which you can slide and spin as on real ice! Like traditional ice skating, sock ice skating is a high physical activity, burning extra calories, training balance and elements of ice skating, as well as relieving stress.

It is noteworthy that ice skating requires an unconditional seamless and slippery surface even more than for regular skating. The Super-Glide seamlessinstallation technology with its patented solutions, along with the highest ice-like sliding quality, guarantees the success of the ice rinks for both socks and regular ice skating. And of course, after a sock skating session, those who wish can go ice skating!

Super-Glide Synthetic ice really means pleasure and joy for all skaters, both on toes and on skates!
