I've never skated in a backyard rink. Is that a thing somewhere?
It's a thing everywhere in Canada. Or at least everywhere north of Toronto nowadays #globalwarming
Is or used to be in New England #globalwarming
Canada - the colder parts. It used to be more common, but now most neighbourhoods (in my city) have a really nice outdoor rink that's well maintained so not as many homes do it anymore.
Pretty sweet, with boards and lights and everything. Must've taken a lot of work
I remember getting schooled at hockey by these Canadian kids. They couldn't have been more than 8 years old. I was in college. Gave up whatever hockey ambitions I had that day.
If I had the ability to create a rink in my backyard with nice lighting I’d probably be pretty comfortable, too.
But yea that looks super slick so fuckin’-A.
That shit looks better than this years winter classic.
How the hell? You built this!? Are there more pictures?
