I don't know what your experiences have been in public skating sessions, but mine have ranged from reasonably pleasant to downright horrible. I have memories of being pushed around like a sack of potatoes by out of control kids who sped around the rink, sometimes playing "whip". I have memories of being knocked down by people who were skating too fast - folks who never bothered to apologize for causing accidents. One time I was knocked down and landed hard on my right hip. The next morning I had a black and blue bruise the size of an orange, right on my hipbone. Fortunately, nothing was broken, and the bruise healed itself. But, really, guys!
One time in a public session, several skaters were attempting to practice their jumps and spins - right in the middle of the public session - and what havoc that caused! Egads.
I know we have to share the ice, but please, can't we share it in a civilized manner?
IMHO, of course!
