Reviews by Situation

“Slowly by yourself” Recommended level: 5 /10

You can enjoy skating even if you suddenly come empty-handed. There are relatively many children, but it doesn’t bother you too much.


“Children will be delighted” Recommended level: 7 /10

You often see children visiting together. If you can’t skate, you can take lessons.


“For a date” Recommended: 4 /10

It will be fun if both of you can skate.


“For fun with friends” Recommended: 3 /10

If you have friends who can skate, you can have a good time.
