Now I live in Canada. I have been doing skating since I came here. And now it is even better than it used to be. The equipment you need is very important. They should be light and warm. If I had more money, I would buy a good skating suit. My granny makes socks and mittens for me. Thus, I can say I am well-equipped. I would say I am not one of the world's greatest skaters but I skate well.
