why synthetic ice

SmartRink™ is the perfect compliment to a player’s regular on ice practice and game regimen.

The bottom line is practice makes perfect and more time on the skates doing things the right way will make a player better.

“100 shots per day!”Synthetic ice means kids can take those 100 shots with their skates on which improves their muscle memory in the correct way.
