Today was my first skating lesson agter a five month break from ice due to Covid. I’ve been on inlines regularly during that time. Anyway, my crossovers were quite good although I found the speed scary. But my edges had gone to pot. I even struggled with a two foot slalom, and I was unable to skate on one leg around the goal crease, that being one of my old drills. My attempts to skate in a curve on one leg were pathetic which messed up many other more complex drills.
So, some questions.
Is this loss of edge control common and how long will it take to return? At present I only have limited ice time as public skating is still banned.
Does inline skating mess up edge control on ice skates or generally damage ice skating?
