The Day Pass Experience At Aviator Sports

By Jessica Geren of BKLYNER My family and I recently spent a Saturday afternoon at Aviator Sports and Events Center trying out the Day Pass they offer. We have 4 children ages 11, 8, 6, and 4 — so I am always on the lookout for activities where we can all participate. The kids were so excited to be trying out the center they actually enjoyed the easy commute by car.

Pulling up, the sports center is quite impressive; it’s located at Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn and there is ample free parking available.

For $32.50 the Aviator Day Pass included a full day of Unlimited Public Skating + Skate Rental, 10 Arcade Tokens, Unlimited Rock Climbing, Sky Jump, 1 Session of Open Basketball, and 1 Session of Open Volleyball. Some of these offerings, such as public skating, are also available 365 days a year for those who only wish to skate.

With our passes in hand, the kids were anxious to get started. We tried the arcade first, as it seems arcade games are magical and mesmerizing for children. There were arcade games that appealed to the youngest up to the oldest.

The children loved having their own card loaded with tokens and being able to choose which games they wanted to play. In no time, the 10 included tokens had been spent and earned tickets were redeemed for some prize candy. The kids were all smiles.

Next, we made our way to the ice skating area. My youngest and I decided to watch, but the older ones were more than happy to try out their skating skills.

The skate rental is included with

the Day Pass, and it was easy and quick to get a pair of skates.

Our children haven’t had much experience on the ice, but there was no judgment during the public skate. The vibe was fun and lighthearted, with music playing in the background and plenty of laughing to be heard. There are benches all around the outside of the rink, perfect for spectators.

After skating, everyone was ready for a little break so we tried out the on-site food court.

The pizza smelled delicious and we decided on a few slices of a fresh pie. I know the kids can be harsh pizza critics, but they gave this slice a thumbs up. Diners have their pick of more than just pizza- there were freshly made salads, burgers, French fries, hot soups, and even a self-serve frozen yogurt station among the selection. We found the food court to be a super convenient option in between activities.

Finding ourselves refueled, it was time to conquer the rock wall.

Considered on of the tallest rock walls in NYC, the wall is 35 feet high. I was surprised that even my youngest children were willing to give this a try. There was no wait, and it wasn’t long before they were taking turns climbing to the top. This was definitely the highlight of our trip, it was by far our favorite part of the day. It was awesome to see each child really excel and use their own skills to tackle the wall.

passing his dad on the way up.

The kids were really proud of their rock wall climb.

The climb was challenging, but the energy around this activity was contagious. The climbers aren’t the only ones having fun, the wall attracts quite a few spectators who can’t help but cheer on those brave enough to tackle the wall. Turns out our oldest son was quite the climber, he managed to get the furthest up the wall even

With the day pass, you are not limited to one trip on the ice or one climb. Just when our kids finished the wall, they suddenly found the energy to ice skate again! There were even activities included in the pass, that we did not have a chance to try because we chose to repeat other activities. The day pass

gives you the freedom to choose your activity and enjoy the center for the whole day. It is an easy commute from most parts of Brooklyn and is a must stop for parents with active children. We had a wonderful day and can’t wait to go back.

Spring/Summer 2017 • Aviator Program Guide 15

A Sit Down with The World Class Aviator Skate Director it. I went to additional training, attended seminars, and learned new skills. Despite being an established coach, I went above and beyond to perfect my craft.

Are there any coaches on your team that you would like to highlight?

S: The staff is comprised of talented and accomplished coaches, which is something I am proud to be able to say. If I were to pick one coach to highlight, it would be Flora (Magid). She is my right hand and one of the fastest rising coaches on the staff. The rate at which she has developed her knowledge base is impressive and some of her skills she learned even more quickly than I did.

By Cabril DeAbreu It’s not often you find an entire team of dedicated, top of the line figure skating coaches at your disposal, but Aviator Sports and Events Center is happy to be an outlier.

We sat down with Slava Rozanski, Aviator’s skate director to find out what makes the group so unique.

How long have you been a figure skating coach?

S: I’ve been coaching figure skating for the past 25 years.

Were there specific levels of competition?

S: I’ve coached all levels of skaters, from the 3-year-old first timer to the recreational skater, all the way to top level competition.

What do you think are the most important qualities that separate the good, from the top of the line coaches?

S: I would say patience is the most critical quality in a coach. Skating improvement takes time and a lot of repetition. Without it, you won’t develop and master skills. Second, you need knowledge of the craft. The coach should be able to break down any skills into individual exercises. In jumps, for example, one should be able to demonstrate the take-off, the rotation, and the landing. Each aspect has a unique approach. Third, is the importance of safety. Younger skaters tend to let excitement get ahead of safety when practicing a new skill. A top-notch skate coach makes sure to stress the importance of being cautious.

What makes the figure skating staff here, so unique?

S: The skate team is full of members who, not only have immense figure skating knowledge but also experience competing at the highest levels. They are also dedicated. Typically, skate coaches are self-employed, meaning most of them will coach as a second job. The Aviator staff is comprised of multiple, full-time coaches.

Figure skating is their primary focus day in and day out. They are dedicated to maximizing the talent of every student.

What else can you tell us about your background?

S: I came here 16 years ago, after being a competitive coach in Europe for nine years.

I quickly realized the skating environment in the United States was extremely competitive. That fueled my determination to be one of the best, and I invested in

16 Aviator PRogram Guide • Spring/Summer 2017

Are there any other key components to your team?

We have a very professional staff, capable of working with the newest skater on fundamentals, to the established or elite skater working to add to their routine.

What are some of your coaching staff’s accolades?

2 of our coaches participated in the Olympic games, multiple world championships, European championships and The Grand Prix. Beyond competition, there is also extensive coaching experience on those levels. This level of accreditation is not usually found on one staff.

This rare blend of patient and experienced coaches make Aviator Sports and Events Center a must for anyone looking to learn to skate or to improve their routine. Learn more about the Aviator Skate School coaching staff at www.aviatorsports.com/ figure-skating-coaches

Pickleball is the newest sport to come to Aviator, and wen couldn’t be more excited. With so few programs in the area, as well as limited court locations, Aviator Pickleball is a unique and inexpensive opportunity to learn the game, have some fun, and exercise while improving your skills. Combining court dimensions similar to badminton, paddles similar to table tennis and a light ball similar to wiffleball, Pickleball is a unique experience. Unlike tennis, the ball is served underhand to begin the volley, and a point is scored when a team allows two bounces without a return. Casual games are customarily played to 11 while tournament play ends with a score of 15 or 21.

To your right, is a gymnastics gym that varies for all ages. I personally go to their adult free running course times which is on weekends 5:40-8:00 $16. There you can do all sorts of free running activities from the tumble mat, to the trampolines and FOAM PIT! They also have rock climbing, food court and arcade. They also have cheap indoor ice skating rink, and a hockey sport skating rink. There is also a gym, but i’m not sure if you need a membership. Staff very helpful, friendly, and most participate with activities depending on which one you choose.
