South Central Manitoba | Made outdoor rinks many, many times. It sounds like you flooded cold water onto a cold ice surface in cold weather. Remedying the problem is not that difficult. Wait till the temp pops up a bit (-10C would be ok already) and then flood again with cold water if you want until all the holes are filled and it is relatively smooth. Then flood with thin layers of hot water to create a seal. Keep skaters off until the hot water seal is on.
Don't make the ice too good or all those little American boys are going to give us Canadians headaches later in international competition. :) | |
