Introduction Sessions Racing FAQ Forums Links Gallery Press

We currently have two full time sessions in San Jose and Oakland.

Saturday Mornings at 11:45am we have an Introduction to Speedskating class via Oakland Ice Center. Contact the OIC directly to enroll.

For all sessions you are required to wear a long sleave shirt, long pants, full fingered gloves, and helmet (bicycle or hockey). We highly recommend knee pads in case of falls (ice is as hard as cement). The San Jose and Oakland clubs have a limited selection of rental speedskates ($3 per session). You may also use hockey or figure skates.
