A regualar hose would be the way to go. ---

WTF Pond hockey this year at my house shall we set up a meet? I have 1 of 6 ponds to choose from, including one you could literally fit two ice rinks on. Although i think the only one frozen over to date solidly is the shallower (sp) pond. ---

> [@Resurrected J](#): > > /\ /\ /\ you still need to get your ass to skate and shoot 🙂 i’m going monday-wed this week 🙂 meh. I live by buff state, and go to ub. that rink is like 30 minutes from my house, and probably 45 from school. buff state is right down the street, and pepsi center is like 8 minutes from south campus. pepsi has 12-1:50 and 2-3:20 every weekday, so I usually hit that up ---

Hmm, I didn’t realize that it was going to be below freezing that long. I may have to do this in my back yard. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/anyone-making-an-outdoor-ice-rink/23629.md?page=2)
