I grew up in a Scandinavian country but have never been able to skate to school. We have a lot of snow and ice but only the ice on the lakes and the arenas has been appropriate for skating where I grew up. The ice on the roads between my home and my schools has not been skateable with skates. Short stretches of it maybe.
- Gravityloss 6y agoIf there's no sand, you could use a potkukelkka / kick sled. Back in the old times, old people especially could use this to get to the store when it was very slippery. https://retkirent.fi/listings/813151-esla-potkukelkka-taittuva-malli-tai-esla-kick-spark https://retkirent.fi/listings/813151-esla-potkukelkka-taittu...
- matsemann 6y agoYeah, skating is only applicable if there is a lake between where you are and where you're going. But what I did as a kid up in the mountains in Norway was using a kicksled if it was icy, or skiis if it was snowy. Full send down the 2 km hill to school, I think everyone in my neighborhood grew up learning to be adrenaline junkies.
