HOW DOES EZ-GLIDE COMPARE TO OTHER SYNTHETIC SKATING SURFACES?
 
Of the three synthetic ice products we sell, EZ-Glide is the fastest! Skating speed has helped make it the product of choice for professional skaters. EZ-Glide is quick and easy to adjust to - most skaters acclimate within ten minutes. EZ-Glide is available in a variety of panel styles and is designed for outdoor or indoor use!
 
 
WILL IT WORK ABOVE FREEZING?
EZ-Glide is manufactured from special synthetic polymers so its surface can be enjoyed year-round and in all temperatures. Developed for indoor/outdoor use, EZ-Glide panels are sturdy, UV-stable and stress relieved so they won't degrade in sunlight or warp as temperatures increase or decrease.
 
 
WILL IT WORK FOR HOCKEY?
 
 
Hockey skating maneuvers are easy on EZ-Glide. The puck responds as it would on conventional ice, so you can practice all of your hockey moves from stops to slap shots to goal tending. You will find EZ-Glide installed in a number of hockey clubs and sports facilities, as well as family homes in basements, backyards and even bonus rooms. Many new hockey and figure skating training facilities are opening and are all using the EZ-Glide Products
 
 
WILL IT WORK FOR FIGURE SKATING?
YES! Many professional figure skaters request EZ-Glide surfaces in show venues where they want the best. More forgiving than conventional ice, EZ-Glide can enhance training and enable you to perform all jumps, spins and figure skating maneuvers with ease.
 
 
DO I NEED SPECIAL SKATES?
 
  No. EZ-Glide was designed for use with regular hockey skates and figure skates. To reduce friction and enhance performance, simply keep your skate blades sharpened and apply EZ Glide Enhancer occassionally for extra glide and speed.
 
     
 
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO MAINTAIN?
EZ-Glide is almost maintenance free. Keep the surface clean and apply our EZ Glide Enhancer as needed - That's it!
 
 
HOW IS IT SHIPPED?
 
 
EZ-Glide is carefully loaded on pallets and shipped using common freight carriers. Shipping should not be a major consideration. Freight rates are low for these products.
 
     
 
WHERE CAN I INSTALL EZ-GLIDE?
EZ-Glide can be installed on any flat surface capable of supporting the weight of the panels and skaters. Hard surfaces like basement floors, garage floors or tennis courts are typical installation sites. Panels can also be installed on hardwood floors or asphalt parking lots. In some situations compacted earth has been used successfully.
 
     
  HOW LONG WILL EZ-GLIDE LAST?  
 
  EZ-Glide panels are constructed of a solid, skatable, polymer mixture throughout its entire thickness! Both sides are skatable. As EZ-Glide becomes scratched from normal skating use, skating speeds increase! The surface skates better the more you use it! The life span of EZ-Glide is dependent on the amount of use, but is normally many years per side.
