Thank you for the replies! I have a question for example if I’m going to eat or walk outside of the rink after skating since our skating rinks are only inside malls,do I as much as possible dry my blades first before putting on hard guards? Or is it also okay to put hard guards immediately after skating and the blade is icey and wet?
You should at least wipe the ice off with your fingers; I'd generally say if you're going to be in the guards for any longer than 10-15 minutes you should probably wipe them off properly.
