About Skate Anytime
Synthetic Ice for Training, Recreation & Commercial Skating
Skate Anytime makes year-round skating possible wherever people want to practice, play, train or create a skating experience. Our synthetic ice systems serve everyone from hockey players and families building a rink at home to training facilities, schools, municipalities, hotels, event rental companies and other commercial organizations creating larger skating destinations.
Our story began with a simple problem: our own children wanted more ice time. Traditional ice was limited by schedules, availability and cost, so we set out to create another way to skate. That pursuit led to Skate Anytime and our Ice-Lock synthetic ice system—a modular skating surface designed to bring the experience of skating beyond the traditional ice rink.
From Home Training Rinks to Commercial Skating Destinations
Today, Skate Anytime synthetic ice is used for much more than hockey practice. Our panels can create home training rinks, recreational skating areas, hockey and goalie training surfaces, figure skating practice areas, municipal and community rinks, school installations, hospitality attractions, and portable rinks for party and event rental companies.
Because synthetic ice does not require refrigeration, chillers or freezing temperatures, a skating rink can be installed in places where conventional ice may be impractical. Indoor or outdoor, permanent or portable, compact training area or large community rink—the modular system allows customers to create a skating surface around their available space and intended use.
A Rink That Can Grow With You
Skate Anytime rinks are built around a modular panel system, giving customers the flexibility to start with the rink that makes sense today and expand or reconfigure it as their needs change.
For a family, that could mean starting with a home hockey training area and adding panels later. For a commercial customer, it could mean designing a larger rink around expected skating capacity, available space, portability, programming and future growth.
Our goal isn’t simply to sell panels. It’s to help each customer create the right skating solution for how and where they intend to use it.
Built for More Ways to Skate
Whether the goal is developing hockey skills, practicing goalie movements, recreational skating with family and friends, creating a community attraction, adding a new amenity, or developing a revenue-producing event experience, Skate Anytime provides a way to create ice time without conventional ice.
Our customers include hockey players, goalies, recreational and figure skaters, families, coaches, training facilities, schools, municipalities, parks and recreation departments, hotels and resorts, event rental companies, and other organizations looking to bring skating to new places.
For smaller residential and training installations, customers can configure and price a rink through Build My Rink. For larger residential, commercial, municipal and custom projects, our Plan My Rink team provides personalized rink planning and project pricing.
Practice. Play. Skate Anytime.
The idea that started Skate Anytime remains at the center of what we do: skating shouldn’t have to depend on available ice time.
From a shooting and skating area in a garage to a large outdoor community rink, our mission is to make skating more accessible, flexible and practical—so athletes can train more, families can skate together, and organizations can create memorable skating experiences virtually anywhere.
