Striding for More Power
 |
Skating at their fastest ability, adults at Crescent Point Place, Provost are pictured taking turns skating from one end of the ice to the other with the goal of making a bit of snow fly off their skates, which means there is power in their stride according to the instructor. Over a dozen people are signed up for the new adult powerskating program instructed by Town of Provost recreation director Jack McKinlay. The lessons are based over a 15 week period with a focus on forward and backward strides, stops and starts, tight turns, pivots; and forward and backward crossovers which is to be followed by a test. The end of this first 45 minute lesson on October 23 finished off with a game of tag, which some adults likely haven’t played in at least a couple decades—and likely not on ice. ©Provost News Photos.
