i have played roller hockey for 13 years and the reason i never tried ice is because the closest ice rink is over 2 hours away.
i recently moved to Northridge for school and really want to learn to ice skate so I can start playing some ice hockey.
One question I have is this. In roller hockey, we wear pants, but I know in ice, obviously they where the big socks and shorts. It is really necessary to switch to the shorts and socks for ice? Or i could I stick with the pants while I am still learning to skate?
You can start out w/ your roller pants for sure but you'll eventually want to make the switch, some leagues wont allow them...
