Preparing to Skate
Make sure you have the right clothing and are prepared for your first
visit to Murrayfield. You will need to dress warmly with long legged trousers which allow room for movement without being
so baggy you risk getting a blade caught in them. A T-shirt or long sleeved top and a jumper is usually fine although some
rinks may be colder than others so a fleece jacket will keep you warm until you get moving. Avoid bulky or loose clothing
and hats and scarves which hamper movement. You do not need special socks - sports socks are ideal. Dont wear very thick socks
or multiple pairs as this can lead to extra friction and rubbing on ankles and heels. Gloves are a great idea, they keep your
hands warm and are safer if you fall, but are not essential. If hiring skates, get a god fit so they support your ankles and
are comfortable. Generally ask for skates the same size as your shoes but you may need to try more than one size before you
have the best fit. Boots should be laced tightly to fully support the ankle and reduce movement of the foot. If they are a
good fit, they should not be uncomfortable on the soles of the feet or the ankle.
