Our Biggest Ice Rink Yet! Rave EZ Set Ice Rink 400 - 16ft x 25ft

RAVE's EZ Set Ice Rink comes with a complete kit to make your own 16 x 25 ft backyard ice rink. Make your backyard the most visited during those winter months with the perfect rink for intermediate to advanced hockey or recreational skaters. Pitch of Site - Place your ice rink unit on a reasonably level site. A pitch of 4" or less is best to help young skaters learn to skate. The flatter the surface the better. Condition of Site - Always make sure unit is placed on a flat area free from any sharp objects or rocks for a minimum of 6' around the ice rink unit. Structures - Place your unit a minimum of 6' away from any trees or other structures. We suggest set up before any major snowfall but the air has begun to freeze is the best time to find a flat spot in your yard and start to fill. With proper air temperatures below freezing (32 degree Fahrenheit), your Ice Rink will start to ice up fairly quickly, but it may be a few days before it is thick enough to use. We suggest filling any RAVE Ice Rink about a 1/4 inch at a time to avoid air bubbles (Attempting to create thick ice at once will result in trapped air bubbles and a bumpy surface), let it freeze and and fill another 1/4 inch until the ice is about 4 inches thick. TESTING ICE FOR USE Wearing normal shoes, carefully put your weight onto the ice and walk around. If you do not hear cracking, it is ready to use (ice must be over 1.5 inches to avoid cracking) NOTE: Do not allow anything but water on the surface of the ice. Items left on the ice will sink down into the ice and create a dangerous and immovable obstacle. If your ice rink has EZ pop up sides - 8" high side walls accommodates maximum ground slope of 5" over 10ft (3-8" of ice)
