Artistic ice skating rinks canceled in winter!
the solution: a modular pump track!
Due to the energy transition and rising costs , many cities in Germany, Switzerland and Austria are once again canceling their planned artificial ice rinks or ice skating rinks during the winter months and the Christmas season.
The total annual electricity costs for a municipality increase from 151% to 251% just because of the ice rink in December, which means that in many places the decision is made against the magic of the ice in winter.
In addition to the rather complex and time-consuming setup and dismantling process, which takes approximately two months , approximately 60,000 kilowatt hours of electricity can be saved for the ride alone. That's roughly equivalent to the annual consumption of six households. Additionally, approximately 5,000 liters of water are saved. That's enough water to take 100 showers! All for one month of Frozen excitement.
Curling?
No thanks! Admittedly, it's a wintery idea, but not a really exciting alternative for children and young people to keep them entertained during the cold season with sporting activities and, above all, fun.
...And the plastic tracks?
As the name suggests, it is made of synthetic materials . Microplastics and macroplastics can be rubbed off and released during gliding, thus being harmful to the environment . Furthermore, the gliding properties of the rinks have been criticized. Beginners and children find the gliding anything but playful, but rather strenuous and pointless. It's also not cost-effective . The rental price for a 300-square-meter synthetic ice rink, including installation, is approximately CHF 58,000/€ 60,000 for 6 weeks.
At this price you could get up to three Buy modular pump tracks. Ugh…!
In short: (Mobile) ice rinks are no longer up to date - in addition to the cost factor, the energy and water consumption are too high, and the assembly and dismantling are also very complex and time-consuming.
The really “cool” alternative?
