jääkiekkoon

Jääkiekkoon refers to ice rink maintenance, specifically the process of making the ice surface suitable for ice hockey and other ice sports. The goal of jääkiekkoon is to create a smooth, even, and safe playing surface that meets the requirements of the sport.

The process of jääkiekkoon typically begins with the preparation of the ice surface. This involves cleaning the surface with a mixture of water and other chemicals to remove dirt, dust, and other substances that may have accumulated on the ice. The ice surface is then cleared of debris and uneven areas are addressed through the use of various tools such as sanders, tape measures, and edgers.

Once the ice surface is prepared, the jääkiekkoon team will apply a layer of transparent ice resin to the surface. This resin helps to fill in any small imperfections and creates a glossy finish. The ice surface is then resurfaced to create a uniform finish. This process involves scraping the surface with an edger to remove any imperfections and create a smooth surface.

Jääkiekkoon is a critical part of maintaining a safe and enjoyable ice sports environment. A well-maintained ice surface can help prevent injuries and provide a better overall experience for athletes and spectators alike. In ice hockey, jääkiekkoon is typically performed during the intermissions and between periods of play to ensure a consistent and safe playing surface.
