Ice Skating is a combo ability appearing in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. Kirby obtains this ability by mixing together the Ice and Cutter abilities. With this ability, Kirby dons a pair of ice skates and dashes through enemies. With skates on, Kirby moves very fast. When he jumps, he spins, creating a small, icy tornado that surrounds him and can destroy nearby enemies. When the player moves the Control Stick in the opposite direction, or if Kirby runs into a wall, Kirby will brake and stop.

  • In the 2008 Christmas Event, Jack Frost left many patches of ice around RuneScape. If a player stepped onto the ice, they would skate across until they hit something. This technique was also used to defeat Jack when the player found him without actually dealing any damage to him. Players can skate all year round in some parts of the Land of Snow, during and after the quest Myths of the White Lands. There are also puzzles in the frozen floors of dungeoneering in which players must skate to the other side of the room.

  • Ice skating was a sport and recreational activity performed on a sheet of ice. Participants wore ice skates to glide across the ice. It was one of Lyndsay Ballard's favorite activities. After she returned to the USS Voyager in 2376 as a Kobali, she asked Harry Kim to go ice skating with her on the holodeck. (VOY: "Ashes to Ashes")
  • Po spills her Tubby Custard on the floor and Tinky-Winky slips on it and slides around the house and up the slide, while the Noo Noo has to tidy up the mess, Tinky Winky comes back inside and his Tubby Apron/Bib is very messy, when he joins the other Teletubbies, he realizes there is no Tubby Custard in his bowl, so Dipsy kindly gives Tinky Winky some of his. The Teletubbies watch some children ice-skating. Tinky Winky and Po decide to hold hands, then Dipsy and Laa-Laa join in and then the Magic Windmill prepares to stop spinning, they said "Uh-Oh!", the Magic Windmill stops spinning and it is time for Tubby Bye Bye.
  • Jubilee and Logan went ice skating at Rockefeller Center after Christmas shopping while Storm watched. Jubilee had fun but Logan was not, he was knocked into a wall by another skater. When finishing up Ape and Annalee almost crashed an ambulance onto the skating rink, but Storm used her powers to divert it away from people. The three X-Men skated over there where they discovered that Leech was sick and he badly needed medicine.
  • Ice skating works because the metal blade at the bottom of the ice skate shoe can glide with very little Friction over the surface of the ice. However, slightly leaning the blade over and digging one of its edges into the ice ("rockover and bite") gives skaters the ability to increase friction and control their movement at will. In addition, by choosing to move along curved paths while leaning their bodies radially and flexing their knees, skaters can use gravity to control and increase their momentum. They can also create momentum by pushing the blade against the curved track which it cuts into the ice. Skillfully combining these two actions of leaning and pushing— a technique known as "drawing"— results in what looks like effortless and graceful curvilinear flow across the ice.

  • Ice skating works because the metal blade at the bottom of the ice skate shoe can glide with very little Friction over the surface of the ice. However, slightly leaning the blade over and digging one of its edges into the ice ("rockover and bite") gives skaters the ability to increase friction and control their movement at will. In addition, by choosing to move along curved paths while leaning their bodies radially and flexing their knees, skaters can use gravity to control and increase their momentum. They can also create momentum by pushing the blade against the curved track which it cuts into the ice. Skillfully combining these two actions of leaning and pushing— a technique known as "drawing"— results in what looks like effortless and graceful curvilinear flow across the ice. How the low-friction surface develops is not exactly known, but a large body of knowledge does exist. These are explained below. Experiments show that ice has a minimum kinetic friction at −7°C (19°F), and many indoor skating rinks set their system to a similar temperature. The low amount of friction actually observed has been difficult for physicists to explain, especially at lower temperatures. On the surface of any body of ice at a temperature above about −20°C (−4°F), there is always a Thin film of liquid water, ranging in thickness from only a few molecules to thousands of molecules. This is because an abrupt end to the Crystalline structure is not the most Entropically favorable possibility. The thickness of this liquid layer depends almost entirely on the temperature of the surface of the ice, with higher temperatures giving a thicker layer. However, skating is possible at temperatures much lower than −20°C, at which temperature there is no naturally occurring film of liquid. When the blade of an ice skate passes over the ice, the ice undergoes two kinds of changes in its physical state: an increase in pressure, and a change in temperature due to kinetic friction and the heat of melting. Direct measurements show that the heating due to friction is greater than the cooling due to the heat of melting. Although high pressure can cause ice to melt, by lowering its melting point, the pressure required is far greater than that actually produced by ice skates. Frictional heating does lead to an increase in the thickness of the naturally occurring film of liquid, but measurements with an atomic force microscope have found the boundary layer to be too thin to supply the observed reduction in friction.
