Right on, great job with the flood!

I wish I could have this. It’s so hard to make it past high school in hockey when you live in Texas.

Outdoor hockey is a special experience! So many thanks for ice makers like Jarrett, his sons, and Kenton. Hope you can keep on playing!

I'm guessing the netting also makes it quieter so the neighbours aren't as pissed off with the noise of pucks on the boards all the time.
I was always amazed at how much ice disappears through direct sublimation. You can lose 1/8" of ice a day easy even on wicked cold days, especially if its windy. Anyone that thinks they flood a rink at the start of the season and then just skate on it needs to do a reality check. Also if you think shovelling your driveway is work then I don't recomment making a rink.

It’s a science and an art to make ice, especially when it gets used a ton like the ice at Jarrett’s rink!
That’s interesting about the sublimation, thanks for sharing!
