The TykeSkater Skate Trainer was designed and developed in collaboration with its users and Finnish ice sports professionals. In other words, professional athletes from ice hockey and figure skating were involved in the development. Furthermore, the TykeSkater Skate Trainer is 100% manufactured in Finland. TykeSkater is one of the most popular skate trainers in Northern Europe because of its practical applications.
Did you know that Finland is the land of more than 150,000 lakes? With a coastline of 1,250 kilometres and more than 3800 skate parks. This means that winter sports clubs are a dime a dozen. Or in other words, in almost every town. There are also 230 indoor ice rinks and more than 2000 public places with outdoor ice rinks.
Over 80% of all schools have their own ice rink on the school grounds in winter. This means that children have the opportunity to learn how to skate during PE lessons. Most of these rinks can therefore also be used by everyone free of charge outside school hours. In other words, skating is a big part of hobbies and leisure activities in Finland.
Therefore, many boys have the desire to be professional ice hockey players from the very beginning. Better said, they want to become like the NHL players. Ice skating is not only a sport for boys, but also for girls. They start playing ringette enthusiastically. Ringette is a popular winter sport, especially in Finland and Canada. The sport was invented in Canada. Ringette is similar to ice hockey and was originally intended for women. Some girls want to learn figure skating to be princesses on the ice.
The various ice sports clubs offer their juniors skating lessons from the age of three. As a result, the skate schools also have many pupils and new enrolments every year. However, they often do not have enough staff to cater for all the children. Therefore, it is important to have skate coaches as support. Several children can learn to skate safely at the same time. Each season, more than 100 children start skating in ice sports clubs. The robust TykeSkater skate trainer will even withstand several years of this resistant use. The TykeSkater is therefore also economical for every skatepark’s ice rink and ice ring operator.
The children are offered skating lessons as early as kindergarten. The kindergarten teachers would like to offer support and guidance to as many children as possible. Therefore, safe learning aids are needed for the children. The TykeSkater is the ideal skate trainer for all age groups. With the TykeSkater, safe skating on the ice is therefore guaranteed. Proven, durable and reliable – TykeSkater. Tukimet also offers special accessories. Which is suitable for both children and adults with special disabilities. Therefore, people with disabilities can also skate safely on the ice with an attendant.

The steel frame of the TykeSkater makes the skate trainer extremely durable and robust. TykeSkater is not only for the fun factor.
