minniefino Posted September 14, 2010 #1 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Will be on the Freedom in a few weeks and just starting to pack now... I know that long pants are required for ice skating, but any idea if mid-length pants such as capris or yoga pants are allowed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tneah Posted September 14, 2010 #2 Share Posted September 14, 2010 I haven't noticed capri style or ankle length at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky-elpaso Posted September 14, 2010 #6 Share Posted September 14, 2010 You definitely don't want any exposed skin hitting the ice if you fall. Don't forget the heavy socks too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugar*Magnolia Posted September 14, 2010 #7 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Even on casual nights? This made me laugh so loud! Its so funny how a question related to clothing is quickly interpreted into dining attire. :D:) [if the post was meant to be sarcastic, I missed it! Try a smiley or LOL next time] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bilyclub Posted September 14, 2010 #11 Share Posted September 14, 2010 My wife has always worn capris when skating onboard. They are almost touching the skate boot and they have never stopped her from getting on the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are welcome to wear capris or long shorts while ice skating. This is on Royal Caribbean's website: 'Please note ice skating on our Voyager Class and Freedom Class ships requires that all skaters wear long pants and socks for their own comfort and safety. Capris and long shorts are permitted'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tumper Posted September 14, 2010 #13 Share Posted September 14, 2010 It appears now that all skaters - adults included - must wear a helmet while ice skating ??? Can anyone who has recently cruised confirm this ? Thanks.

WishIwerethere Posted September 14, 2010 #14 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Even on casual nights? Love it !! :D Didja notice people aren't lining up to insist that if they want to wear "juicy" shorts or some other outrageous getup that it is OK ? Maybe they should install an ice floor in the MDR, and have the waitstaff ride zambonis. Then they could require long pants in the MDR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
