Gliding across the Ice on curved metal blades is part of many popular Winter Games in Canada, Figure Skating, Speed Skating, Synchronized Skating, Hockey, and Skating in the Park.
My ASL Dictionary has a 2013 cartoon of a Man with a cold red nose dressed for the Winter in a Colourful Parka, Hat, Earmuffs and Scarf to show the ASL hand sign for ICE SKATE.
Palms up, both X hands alternate back and forth, like a skater’s blades press forward on the ice.
A second version of the SKATES has both X hands also move side to side as they alternate back and forth like a skater’s blades glide on ice with lateral movement in each step.
