The Global Synthetic Ice Canada crew had a great turnout at The Hockey Expo last weekend!  Georges Laraque was on hand signing autographs and taking photos with fans.  A Super-Glide Home Goalie Training system was set up for display, along with some samples of Super-Glide synthetic ice rink materials.  Thanks to Dean Sprung, Regional Sales Manager of Super-Glide Canada, for the photos!

Global Synthetic Ice is proud to announce their support of the Green Hockey Initiative.  The Green Hockey Initiative was started by Hockey Science and Technology with the goal of helping reduce hockey-related damage to the environment.  

While our Super-Glide synthetic ice products are a nice shade of ice blue on the outside, we like to think of them as being green on the inside!  Super-Glide greatly reduces the environmental impact of playing hockey by reducing electricity and fossil fuel requirements to nearly zero and by being completely recyclable while still maintaining skate-like-ice characteristics.  What are you waiting for?  Get green!

Our Global Synthetic Ice Canadian distributors, led by hockey star Georges Laraque, are planning to be at The Hockey Expo in Ontario, Canada this weekend.  The expo will be held at International Centre in Mississauga, Ontario and is billed as North America's premier hockey event with a full slate of seminars, exhibitors and celebrities.  

Tickets are available online now, plan on spending a day there this weekend to immerse yourself in all things hockey.  Be sure to stop by the Super-Glide Canada booth to learn about Super-Glide, the best synthetic ice surface in the world!

Our Japanese distributor, Alex Shinn, arranged a 100 square foot Super-Glide synthetic ice rink at the Tenjin Solaria Plaza in Hakata, Fukuoka last week for a television promotion.  Response from the public and from the event promoters was great!
