PR Log (Press Release) –
Mar 22, 2010 – Thinking about starting to play ice hockey? Well good for you, it is a fast, accelerating game but beware it can get rough out there. When starting, the most important thing is your equipment, you will need a lot, so let’s look at a brief overview of what you will need to play the sport, and at the same time keep safe.
The most important item when taking your first step on the ice is of course your ice hockey skates, without good skates you will not achieve your potential and they need to be of good quality and comfortable. If you are new to ice hockey make sure you know the difference between figure skates and ice hockey skates. Next on the agenda is an ice hockey stick, there are many to choose from and experts in the game will advise you of the best buy for your height and experience.
Protection on the ice is vital, as you will know the game of ice hockey is fast, and if you are new to the sport you may not realize just how fast this game can be, with pucks traveling at over a 100 miles an hour you need all the protection you can get. You will need a helmet and visor, face shield, a mouth guard, chest protector, elbow pads, hockey gloves, hockey pants, and shin guards, these pieces of equipment will keep you safe, and if you fall and are protected from injury you will be more willing get up, dust yourself down, and push yourself harder, in that way you will learn faster.
The best practice is to include a hockey bag to keep all your gear in, having said that don’t just leave your ice hockey equipment in the bag after play, it will be wet and smelly, so get into the habit of good gear maintenance from the beginning, you will need to get your gear out of the bag and dry it after every game.
The mindset you need to adopt is that ice hockey equipment is for your safety do not skip wearing any item, and more importantly make sure that your equipment fits you properly, good quality gear will keep you safe and in the game for a long time to come.
