Anyone do or try speedskating?

Kinda looks like fun and it's another excuse to buy a new kind of skate.

I bet it'd ruin your turning (for hockey).

it may or may not ruin your turning, but it'd most likely help and improve your stride

ive tryed both, inline and ice speed skating. not to brag or anything but i tryed ice and there was noone on our speed team that could keep up with me, so i stopped that. i did inline for a year won the state championship last year, and decided not to race this year. it doesnt reallly screw up my turning and i have a awesome stride on ice, i have probably the best form around here. also im not saying i just picked up these sports from ice skating, i used to go to the roller rink in my town every friday and saturday, and always used inline speed skates.
