More Ice Skating in Winter 2016 Please

I love putting on my frozen boots and taking a few rounds on the frozen lake in the Winter Wonderland. The animations are cool (pun intended), and it just feels nice. But there isn't much else to do with the frozen boots there.

Can we have some more ice skating content for next year's Winter Event? Maybe some kind of parcour with obstacles to jump over (or drive below? Is there a crouch animation for the skating?).


Or do most people hate the lake and the frozen boots?

    Love the boots, neutral on the skating on the lake bit.

    I got the boots the second year and haven't looked back. Every alt gets them ASAP when the winter event rolls around. That first year after getting the boots, I did skate around the lake a bit but it got old fast. Haven't bothered since. Perhaps if there were something else to do, as you suggest, I may be inclined to join in from time to time.

    I would not be against there being something more skating related being added to the event next year.

    I would love for there to be more animations and more tricks you can do skating on the lake. :)

    Perhaps a Figure Skating competition/Ice dancing...similar fashion to the Risa's party with a timer doing some emote swapping to get some ornaments...that is if the server still keeps on going for 2016 monkey-2.gif​​

    I only discovered that ice skating has tricks to it. Didn't realize that sprinting while skating turns that on, and then it was a lot of fun for the little animations it made. I remember skating on the lake near the other ice skaters, showing off to them, cause they never do jumps or anything and then realized they were all npcs. Felt kind of stupid. And then the snowmen attacked. And I fell down. :(

    Speed skating race would be really cool if they could put in an oval :wink:

    I second the motion to expand ice skating. Besides adding an actual event that uses it, I'd like to see more animations like spinning and the salchow.
