Just some random skate sounds made with different parts of the blade. Some deep edges, scrapes, scratches, skids, toe picks, stamps etc. . . Solo skating in an empty rink.
Ice rink skating in februari 2012 on a sunny day. Multiple recordings of skaters passing by. Unexperienced children as well as semi-pros can be heard passing by from right to left. Recorded in annen, the netherlands with a zoom h2 recorder.
Ice skating ambience: here you can hear the echo-induced atmosphere created by cold ice. The laughter and chatter of people reflect against the walls of this big hall. You can hear the slashing of ice and the swoosh of people racing against each other. An upbeat music can be heard further enforcing joy. Recorded with the zoom h6, rode ntg. This is a great sound to create a joyful atmosphere.
Skates on ice: here is a very specific sound effect. The metallic slash through ice when it is being skated on. There are multiple variations of this in this track due to the amount of contact the blade of the skate has to the ice and also the force being put into the movement. It is a sharp and cold sound. Recorded with the zoom h6, rode ntg.
A snowboarder is quickly crossing the sound space from left to right. Then his dog running after him in the snow: dog paws, breath and metal necklace. France, 2021.
