Dad used to flood an out door rink years back for the town. First he would remove all the snow. Then he would continuously spray the outer edges to create a water tight edge for the water to be flooded within.Just enough to soak but not so much it wouldn't freeze fast. Because you have a down hill section I would also build up some vertical lines on the hillside so the water would be held in place, rather than running down the slope and common sense says the closer the vertical lines the more landscape hugging and precise the transitions. He would then give it a light but full coverage flood to and leave it freeze well to seal the bottom. After that he would just repeat flooding until the ice was thick enough. Adding hockey lines and circles. Smoothness was determined by the amount of water laid down to ensure the entire surface was flooded and even. While Crack prevention and such were avoided by ensuring you weren't putting down too much. It's the same way they did the curling rink ice. How much water? I never saw him put down more than a 1/2 inch in a heavy flood Usually about a quart inch starting out so it would freeze instead of melting the base and soaking in. This was done rather quickly as he used an 1 1/2" fire hose to do it.
No matter what you do , remember your making memories for your kids … it lasts a life time … your an awesome Dad ! Many men out there can take some pointers … and I have seen. A few awsome dads on TH-cam making winter fun memories for there kids . Keep up the good job 👍 ❤️🇨🇦❤️
Hi coach jeremy im playing hockey in the philippines since 2005 love your channel. Im already 40 years old but i love ice :) my son is now playing hockey at the age of 4 and his loving it. more power to your youtube channel. stay safe hope to see more hockey videos soon
fs should! in tennessee its never cold enough to do anything like this so i have to go all the way to nashville to skate most days, its not really much of a commute, but it would be grate to skate in my own back yard:). it does suck having to drive an hour or so for practice and training most days bc theres only one girls team for tn. but anyways im sure your girls would love this ( also theres a video on my channel of some glass seats i have:)).
I used to drive on ice roads in the Arctic and they did it just like you guys, pack and level it then add water and grade. They would maintain it fixing pot holes. There was heavy truck traffic using it.
Next year get a 50 gallon drum, mount is on a pole so you can roll it by pushing it. Fill the barrel with cement and BOOM you got a snow steam roller. Similar to the lawn roller but WAY heavier
So for the ice trail THE LAWN ROLLER can be filled with sand water even rock it helps weigh it down to get a perfect even roll every time. I recommend you using water to fill it with 1 it flows inside it easily 2 its definitely the heavier out of the 3 I named
This is what a good TH-camr does they give a sneak peak then they actually show how it was made. Instead of making 100 shorts trying to get as many views as possible.
You should've ran that antifreeze into a bucket so you can reuse it instead of dumping toxic liquid right on your front lawn other than that awesome video 👍
Every year my uncle and family would turn their whole back yard into an ice rink. After a good snow fall we would have a stomping party. My aunt would make hot chocolate and treats and all the rest of us would spend the day stomping down the snow with just are boots on. So much fun.
Use to ice skate on the road growing up. I was able to go two miles to friends house. Look on people face passing my brother and I skating full speed down the road they are driving on haha
1 need a better hose set up (cant use buckets need alot of water to make that fine finish 2 remove snow and pack the rest down 3 do many layers over 2-3 day time period or if long enough trail use a hose reel to move back up to the top to start the process over again hose reel would allow u to roll the hose back up while continually laying water down could even before the ground freezes put in poles with hoops to run hose through to keep it up(just keep away from the trial so its not something someone hurts themselves on)
I'd use an ATV to pack down the trail with the lawn roller, add and remove snow by hand to make the trail even, then go over it with the same ATV with an ATV broadcast sprayer on the back and then finish smooth it with the roller and by hand. It'd save alot of futzin' around, heavy lifting and hand work and also takes away alot of the long hoses and the risk of stuff freezing.
The brown sh!# is scale from the boiler, And you can blow the hoses dry with an air compressor, and if you do it outside in the cold and minimal water left in the hose will freeze whiles it is coiled up until you use it. Then after you pump you could pour windshield washer into your suction on the pump and blow that down the hose. Get the closest jabronee with a decent set of wind pipes to blow o2 through the hose to push the window wash throw or just walk the line out holding it above your head.
Am i only that still see the shara ishvalda at 3:48 when you heard it ? Because we still don't have rly lot of people use it for montage ? (Sadly he use the repeated one.. i was waiting the dropping..) His eyes ;-;
@@CoachJeremy makes sense, I'm amazed it was still too light. Maybe next year try a small piece of plywood with rope attached to it. Just hold the rope and step on it, repeat
My heart hurt when I saw you just flip the tamper over on its side at the end of the video. Always tilt it forward so you don't get oil in the air cleaner. Anyway can't wait for the next video :)
I know this is late but... I kinda have an idea for your path making DIY stuff. Buy 2 steel barrels. 1 should be small enough to fit inside the other. Tack brackets on each end or weld the small barrel in the dead center of the big barrel. Punch out holes on each end, and set in some ball bearings *basically like your roller you have in this but with a barrel in the middle. Obviously your going to want an opening somewhere. I'm thinking on the side. Anyway. Essentially. your going to put hot coals in the middle barrel. lock it. *vents obviously but we wanna keep the fire in the middle. So now you have a heat roller. I have no idea if this will work great, but if you can fill 100 gallon drum inside a 500 gallon drum, that should be PLENTY of heat to keep this thing rolling clean. If we had ice like yall do I would build one just to see.
You can do it!, I’ve taught skating for 20+ years, 1) Pad up! Homemade 1/4 inch foam (eg. Mountain bike foam) on boney parts: elbow, hip, tailbone, knee pads, onto tight pajamas, or cheap Costco Baselayers 2. Helmet with Face Mask- prevent concussion and dental damage. 3. Skates based on the shape of your foot. Eg. Narrow skates for narrow slim feet eg Bauer “Vapor” line Regular skates Regular feet Bauer “Supreme” line “Fit 1 for a narrower fit” Fit 2 for regular, Fit 3 for Wider feet. 3 hockey skate manufacturers Bauer, CCM, True.... buy the best fitting heat moldable $200 to $300 on sale. Skate cannot be too long. heel should be locked inToe nail should just scrape the front when standing. 3/8 gap when u are in an athletic squat and laces are snug and tight.

That "premium" duct tape or flex tape is a waste of money. It only works very limited applications. It's thicker than usual. Not as easy to wrap around odd-shaped things.
This is one of the most Canadian things I've ever seen. I don't even like skating or hockey, but I do love this.

Pam cooking spray will help prevent snow from sticking to lawn roller if you ever try it again.

We use to pack our sliding trail with a snow machine and then use the hose to slick it up!
100% what I should do. Way easier 😩

Hi Jeremy I love ur content
Omg he liked
5:54 “Y’now I just cut a board” 😂😂 I’m dying
Awesome keep up the great work
Build a metal sled, fill it with firewood, set ablaze and tow it up&down the track. Melts and compacts snow plus is heck of a show for video
Definitely trying this out someday🚀
Love the trail Jeremy
I come from that short. This is pretty cool and looks really fun! :D

Oh make vids about my back yard rink on me chnnl and we were thinking to make the odr longer next year and use the garage as a warming shack!
You should buy a quad and put a plow on it or drag a trail making attachment.
💯 doing that next year

It always makes me happy when I see a notification someone like your comment or somebody subscribed

The lawn roller, you usually put water in them to make them heavier, have to drain it before it freezes, if you own it fill with sand.
We filled it with antifreeze
Crashed Ice, Jeremy style!!!
If you're willing to go to effort of using the pressure washer, why not just get a plate compactor to pack your trail down?
Someone never watched the full video 😏
Sure pad your views by making me watch it again to see the 5 seconds where I must've looked away.
@@CoachJeremy 😆
Nice! A backyard RedBull Crashed Ice Rink!
I'd use an ATV to pack down the trail with the lawn roller, add and remove snow by hand to make the trail even, then go over it with the same ATV with an ATV broadcast sprayer on the back and then finish smooth it with the roller and by hand. It'd save alot of futzin' around, heavy lifting and hand work and also takes away alot of the long hoses and the risk of stuff freezing.
it wouldn't even be that hard to hook up an inline on demand hot water heater in order to fill the broadcast sprayer with hot water.
Nice man!!

Mack a moving hockey net
i saw this on youtube shorts it looked fun he was delivering coffee
Glad you like my shorts 🩳 😁 Did you see the birthday cake one too?
Try the roller with Pam non stick spray
What water did you use
Did you guys fill the lawn roller with water?
Antifreeze because it was -20 out

Doesn't the compactor get filled with water or sand for weight? That thing should be plenty heavy.
How about a jack hammer with a flat tamping foot?
lol i subscribed within 25 seconds of the video
Hi, you are supposed to fill the roller with water for weight
My heart hurt when I saw you just flip the tamper over on its side at the end of the video. Always tilt it forward so you don't get oil in the air cleaner. Anyway can't wait for the next video :)
hockey ring in the garden...This is the most canadian thing ever
Why don't you use one of those motorized compactors for like rocks and sand and stuff
You should try true sticks
Yes
Welcome to Canada
With your bucket sled thingy you could’ve drilled a hole and put you’re homemade zamboni out the back with water In the bucket
