Description

Speed skating is ice-skating’s oldest sport. As far back as the 17th century races were held on frozen canals in the Netherlands. The rink is oval-shaped for Olympic events. Individual races are contested in pairs and are against the clock. In the team pursuit, skaters race in groups of three. One team starts on the home straight and the other on the back straight.VIDEOGRAPHIC
