How long did it take for you to pick up skating?
What steps did you take before joining a rec league or whatever?

So, he'll be eligible for the draft around 2020?Jysk said:My son is 3 yeras old now and in 10 days him and i are going on ice. He learned to skate in November 2004 just 2 years and 4 months old. we skated orund 70 times this past winter and he just loves it. It seems like he was born to play. He even got in to a pratice with 5 and 6 yearolds ( in sweden their leauge is called Björnligan). Their coach dropped his jaw when he sa Eric skate. He was skating better then all on that team...

Weirdly enough I am a good inlineskater, but I am a bad skater on the ice (might be the lack of practice).cassius said:How long did it take for you to pick up skating?

I joined a novice league about a week later. Then joined my first B/C rec league about 1 yr after starting. I can now do just about anything on skates: hockey stops, tight turns, cross-overs (forward and backwards), T-stops, jumps, pivots (though I still drag a little going from forward to backwards), explosive starts (ie penguin running).
I highly recommend Laura Stamm's book/DVD if you want to improve.
