Forum Question:
Currently planning a rink, space is at a premium (city lot). To make a bigger rink, I have to box around a tree that cuts in on my rink corner (6' x 9') creating an odd design with the frame. I know that creates some issues in a hockey game but I gain extra ice surface on a relatively small rink. First question: should I expect tarp difficulties folding over boards that are not an oval or rectangle frame design? Second question: in your opinion, is it worth the trouble to box around the tree to extend the length of the rink another 9'? Specs, materials, & rink purpose listed below).
Rink longest Width: 28'
Rink longest Length: 38'
Slope: 5-6"
Planned Materials
Boards 2x12
Liner: 40 x 40 White Tarp 14x14 weave.
General Use: 3 to 8 kids (ages 5-10) figure skate/hockey. 2 on 2 adult hockey games.
