The coaches at least tend to be masked up and figure skating and learn to skate have their masks on. Parking is terrible now, whenever that apartment development is done, you can park in the lot that used to be there on the ground floor as an open Muni lot. For now, be aware that it can be crowded and you'll end up parking in the park or the far end of the lot if it's busy. Don't park in the bowling alley lot, they will tow you.

Too expensive for an hour…read more Not enough of the seals for kids that need it. You see alot of older kids even adults using it that definitely don't need but hog one which affects the kids that are in need. They should limit the amount of people in the rink or at least make sure if their one hour time is up, they have to go. The skates werent comfortable. Rentals, i guess you cant complain. It was good to try once. But wouldn't recommend.

I visited the indoor ice rink at the American Dream Mall alone one random day on Friday, March 8th,…read more2024. I felt like going on a last minute adventure from Philadelphia and decided to drive up to have some fun! I got there shortly before 6pm, the ice rink was to close at 9pm, at the time, so I had 3 hours on the rink instead of 2. PARKING There are many parking lots, but for the ice skating rink, the amusement park, waterpark, lego land etc. I would recommend park in lot B and C. This lot is closest to these attractions. Otherwise, if you park in parking deck A you have to walk for and it gets really confusing like a maze! You can map your gps directly to parking deck B or C on Google Maps, Apple Maps, and more. Parking is $5 on a regular day. $40 on an event day, BUT if you do an experience like ice skating get your parking ticket validated at the desk and it will bring your parking ticket back down to $5. Don't leave your parking ticket in the car!! Too many people do this! You need to pay for parking before you leave, and although there are many different ways to pay it's just easier and faster with the many kiosks inside. You have 25 minutes from the time you pay for your parking ticket to exit the parking lot, if you need more time, I would suggest paying for your parking ticket via your phone by scanning the QR code with your camera and using Apple Pay or GPay to pay for it. PRICE The price of a ticket is cheaper online than it is in person. You don't have to buy it in advance, but even if you get there, buy it through your phone. RENTALS The rentals are a size bigger than regular shoe size, but you can exchange ice skate sizes if they feel too tight or too loose. They are also plastic and don't the best quality. I still was able to ride just fine despite that. They clean it decently, but bring your own socks FOR SURE. LOCKERS I put my shoes & my bag into a locker which is $5, paid via card (debit or credit). I wouldn't recommend leaving your stuff out in the open. If someone steals your stuff, that's on you and not the people who work here. There's a lot of variables around here, and I wouldn't trust to leave your shoes or items just laying around! You process your payment at the locker section. It has its own kiosk. It chooses the locker for you, but you get to choose your own pass code to later re-open your locker. Once you close the locker you cannot open it again. If you do, then you end up paying for a locker again, an additional $5. So make sure you're only doing it once. TIME ON THE ICE You usually get about 2 hours on the ice per session purchase. Because I bought my ticket shortly before 6pm, and they were closing at 9pm, I was able to have 3 hours to ride instead of 2. Although 2 hours is more than enough. You'll get thirsty and hungry, it's a great exercise. CLOTHING You're not going to get cold. If you're going to stand in one spot or sit in the sidelines, you will. But if you're moving around and trying to skate, you're going to get hot. That's why I'm in shorts. I already know myself. I get very hot very quickly. Also if you fall a lot, you may want to cover up, ice burn is a thing. But because I snowboard my balance is great so I didn't fall at all. QUICK TIPS - I would recommend bring like starburst or something to pop into your mouth when you get thirsty during your 2 hour session. It helps keep your mouth salivated for long periods of time. - I wouldn't recommend riding with a bag larger than a fanny pack. - Bring some headphones and listen to music even as a beginner. If you concentrate on something else you'll actually put your focus elsewhere and actually be able to enjoy and learn how to skate. I did the same thing when I was learning to snowboard. I used a stress ball to stimulate my brain when learning to ride, which helped remove the focus from the task at hand. - Be aware of your surroundings at all times. OVERALL I had a good time ice skating here! I would do it again at some point for sure! It's an indoor ice skating rink, I wasn't expecting a luxury experience. It is good for fun, but definitely know what to expect before you go. Don't have high expectations, and just let yourself have some fun.

Entry was free (unheard of in this day and age!) and skate rentals were only $20+tax. Believe me when I say the energy of all the skaters, employees and DJ were off the charts! Everyone was positive, enthusiastic, supportive and friendly! There were impromptu conga lines, electric slide dances and smiles aplenty. I must have skated for about 3 hours with only the occasional 3 minute break to catch my breath. In case you got hungry or thirsty, there were small mom n pop food and drink vendors by the entrance charging very reasonable prices. The best part was being amongst such talented skaters! I've only been skating three times now but I feel like I leveled up just by watching others here. If you're new to skating, rest assured that the community is as friendly as they are skilled! 5/5 beach skating event.. thank you RollerWave NYC!

From our very first visit, we were drawn in by the warm, family friendly atmosphere. It's clear that they've been part of the community for a long time and the community truly loves and supports them. They offer skating classes every Saturday morning at 9 a.m., and we've been attending regularly ever since. The classes are well structured with three skill levels, and the staff is consistently kind, welcoming, and encouraging. It's been a fantastic experience all around! I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a place to go skating. Pricing is also very good and reasonable.

Have been to many rinks in different states, this is the FIRST rink that allows learn to skate to run simultaneously with many advanced skaters. Just imagine an advanced skater doing jumps that could crush into those LTS little kids?! So, where is the safety? Ridiculously, the rink lady (Michelle) was very unmannered when seeing a professional skater wearing weights and bends entering into the rink just for a regular self practice. That lady shouted to the kid taking them off. If safety is indeed the priority for this rink, why do they even allow LTS kids learning the basics to skate at the same time with those advanced skaters??? Really absurd and bizarre!!! If you're looking for a freestyle expecting hassle free, then this is definitely NOT the rink you should go to!!!

Fun times! This…read moreskating rink sits on the 4th floor of the Palisades Mall. Many people don't even know it's there. There are public skate times you can find on their website. You'll otherwise see the Palisades Skating School in action here a couple days per week, hockey games, freestyle private lessons and people of all levels practicing. You can rent skates or bring your own. Prices are average - skate rental is free in January usually for national shate month. They have lockers to store stuff, but it's generally safe here to leave your items on the bleachers while skating. I've spent a looot of time sitting on those bleachers. There are some arcade games as well, bathrooms in the rear. Bring some friends and have fun. Oh, they also allow you to host birthday parties.

Had a pretty good experience here when I took some kids and teens. It's such a nice perk to have…read morethis connect to a mall as it can really round out a day out. However, I was just coming for the ice skating so, I parked by Macys and rode up 2 flights to enter the rink. Skating fee and rental for skates seemed comparable to other areas I've been to. It was a little hectic, picking up the skates as you had to wait for the group prior to return them. Once we got our skates on in the rink opened, it was easy peasy. There was music in the background, which really amped up the vibe and make for extra jamming. There are bathrooms inside and right outside the rink for ease. A couple of downsides I found are- I was a little grossed out that they don't spray down the rental skates with any kind of disinfectant spray as I've seen done at other places after being returned and also I didn't feel like the staff on the rink was very attentive. There were some boys being quite disruptive and I noticed several beginners fall as these boys were speeding past them and almost on top of them. Also, there isn't any type of concession stand, but really not a problem being that you are in a mall and can always grab food anywhere.
