I don't live in snow country. I don't play hockey. I rarely watch hockey. But...I never miss an outdoor rink video on this channel!
You are the best! Thanks for following along every year even though aren’t that into hockey. It is a fun sport to watch and play if you ever decide to give it a try :) cheers and thanks again!

I don’t play hockey but do live in an area that gets 400+ inches of snow a year so I do other ice/snow sports like skiing but these vids never disappoint.
I'm not a hockey player or a fan of cold weather, however I enjoy you opening up and sharing your stories.
These yearly hockey rink videos are a reminder to me how fast time flies by! Feels like it was yesterday when I was watching your first DIY hockey rink video!
Thanks for following along over the years! Doesn't seem like we were excavating for the rink long ago either! Time definitely flies too fast! Hope all is well!
The yearly rink video is my favorite one on your channel... We have a big backyard (not Utah big, but big enough) and I'm now working on getting the wife on board with making one of the Nice Rinks in our backyard for our 3 boys. Looks like an insane amount of work, but it also looks methodical and therapeutic like cutting the grass.
Hey Josh! Thanks man, I appreciate it! That's awesome you are getting the wife on board. -- Honestly, I think it is such great thing to do to create memories for the family and kids that they'll never forget. I still have a ton of memories skating on the rink my Dad built us 3 boys. ( I am the middle of 3 ). - And now we are doing the same for our family. Your 3 boys will love it, get out a lot of energy, and I'm sure sleep better haha. Plus you can always tell what kids have a rink as their skills increase exponentially. All things your wife will be excited about. It is a lot of work, although if you don't have as much wind and snow as we do up in the foothills, things will be a little better. All sizes of rinks are great -- I have quite a few friends with rinks around 25x40 / 30x50 etc and they get lots of use. -- Resurfacing late at night is very therapeutic. -- If I can help in convincing any more just let me know. As long as the weather cooperates so you get a good season, it is totally worth it. Cheers
Saving last year's water!? What a great tradition!
I look forward to this video every year. My wife and I just finished building on 6 acres in Canada and I cannot wait to get a rink out there.
Hey Luke! That is awesome. Congrats on the new home build. And that 6 acres will be a blast to customize, and to put that rink on! Looking forward to seeing that rink and you'll have to email a photo of it next year. I'd love to see it! Holler if you run into any questions I may be able to help out with. Cheers!
I watch every year from Los Angeles. Go Kings! I look forward to it. Year 6: Zamboni garage!
Thanks so much! haha, that is not a bad idea on the Zam garage! :) may have to get the ball rolling on a shop!
KOPITAAAAAR
Pete I have been waiting for this video since last year! The rink looked great as usual!!
Thanks so much Gabe! Hope all is well man!
Thought I'd been waiting all year, but my suspicions were correct, and it was 2 years! Sorry about the injury, but glad to see you were back this year. I'm a basketball player, and don't even really know anything about hockey, but definitely appreciate and look forward to your video each year. Nice job, Pete.
Thanks for following along with the rink builds each year! Definitely feels good to be back and skating again. Have a great rest of the week! Cheers
Been waiting for this for what feels like ages 😂. Always look forward to these every year.
Thanks for waiting!! Was another fun year out at the ODR. Hope you had a great season as well!
This is always my favorite time of year is seeing the updates to the rink. Cheers for a good season! I wish the best for future seasons and cant wait to see how much it grows and changes!
Hey John, thanks man! It was a good season, and another fun ODR to hang out at. Hope you got in some hockey this winter and thanks for taking the time to check out the video and leave some feedback. I appreciate it! Cheers and have a great week!
I put up an ODR every year, this year was by far one of the worst because of the warm weather and then the snow right after, still had fun. I have the EZ ice system which is nice because no stakes which is perfect as my rink sits on both grass and asphalt. Love the Videos, they give me inspo to put my rink up every year.
Hey man! I hear you about all the warm and then cold weather. Such a crazy season. We luck out since our elevations is a mile high, but still had the darn fluctuations. I've heard great things about the EZ rinks as well! -- and it sounds like a perfect situation for your rink. Because we have the 4 foot boards and get so much wind, I'd be toast without stakes, but would love to go stake free if I could! Thanks for the feedback, hopefully we all have more consistent cold temps next ODR season. Thanks for following along each year and take care! Cheers
I always enjoy the rink videos - besides the technical aspects - I love to see how much fun you have doing it. However, I think the best part is watching the real sense of community that seems to be a big part of the experience.
Thanks JT! Always great to hear from you. It's been a great way to connect with our community and to build so many memories out there. Cheers!
I can't wait to see an acrobatic drone light show inn 2025 ;) . Great work as usual and it looks like much fun was had by all.
Haha that would be epic! Thanks for watching man! Hope you got in some skating this season!
I did get some skating in and there was enough snow to build our annual toboggan run. We launch from a picnic table off our deck (and put plywood to protect the stairs) and then have it weave in the backyard as it goes downhill.
That sounds epic!
awesome video Petey! i love watching your yearly rink builds!! definitely my favorite ODR channel. i lied. Your channel is my favorite hockey channel period!
Hey thanks man! I really appreciate it and thanks for following along each year. Hope you got in some skating this season! Cheers
A video i look forward to watching every year!
Thanks so much guys! Hope ya had a great hockey season.
really love watching these every year glad to see your healed up
Thanks for watching! Yep feels good to be skating again. Cheers!
Wow… your ideas… first the awesome rink. The pickle ball rink. Incredible. Your pal, Pete in Carrollton, TX
Hey Pete! Great to hear from you and thanks for watching! Hope all is well down in Carrollton! Cheers
I look forward to this video every year! I think it’s cool to see how every year you get something new to help with the rink. I thought the attachment you got for your hammer drill was awesome, seems like it’s more convenient than hammering in each stake. Can’t wait for next years video! Cheers from Pennsylvania!
Thanks for watching Sean! Yeah the ground driver attachment was definitely a good add on :) Hope all is well out in Pennsylvania and that you got in some skating this winter. Cheers!
Ive been waiting all winter for this, excited to see next years!
Thanks for waiting man! Hope ya enjoyed checking out this year’s build and that it helped out! Cheers
I have been watching your videos since year 1 and love them, keep up the good work. Hello from NO
Thanks so much for following along over the years. Hope all is well over in Norway!! SKOL!
@@DIYPETE 😊
I have been waiting for this video. It’s been a pleasure watching your rink game evolve. It’s amazing the work you put in. Nice job! Hope you liked the goods from Sweden. Looked like it was a nice mix of snacks there.
Hello from 🇸🇪
Hey! Thanks for your patience and for taking the time to watch the rink builds each year. I've never been to Sweden but would like to visit someday. We've been to Norway as my family originally came over from the Lillehammer area, but need to get to Sweden as well. It was a really good mix of snacks Martin sent. My wife said those Swedes really know how to make a good chocolate bar, and said they are better than anything we have in the States :) My hockey rink videos are most viewed by folks in the USA, followed by Canada, then Sweden! Definitely fun to get to chat with fellow hockey players and rink builders around the world. Thanks for taking the time to reach out and have a great weekend!
Oh it’s definitely my pleasure to enjoy your builds and videos. Welcome to Sweden when you get a chance and make sure you eat some chocolate bars while you’re here hehe! We do know how to make good candy. I have a brother living in Seattle so my visits to him have been many through the years, I always bring lots of candy and potato chips with me..more so than clothes and personal stuff haha!
I’m not a player or rink builder myself I just enjoy people doing stuff with their hands, crafting and building. Keep it up and hope the knee is healing well! Take care of yourself and the family.
great day when pete uploads, i do miss the project videos and what not but i also understand that people take brakes from work, cant wait to see the next one man
Thanks so much for following along with the channel despite changes in types of videos sometimes. I appreciate it. Will get some more woodworking content up this year. Thanks man!
@DIYPETE always man love it, I remember when your wife was in the military and you were making videos in the garage I've been here a while and the quality only has hone up keep it up man
Thanks a ton man! Means a lot. Have an awesome weekend!
Next year you should do a goal line LED and also add lines to the liner and make it look more professional. Great Rink! :)
Thanks for the ideas! I like the idea of painting lines as well for a professional look during the day. My hesitation is the color of the line absorbing sunlight and causing melting where the lines are. ( if you leave a puck, goal, or even a leaf gets on it will absorb energy from the sun and melt the area quickly. Do you know how the paint does outdoors? If it would work well I'd love to try it. And if anyone is reading this discussion and has tried the ice paint outdoors I'd love to hear about your experience with it. Thanks guys!
Been fun to watch this process and everyone enjoying it. Cheers from the other side of the hill.
Thanks! Hope all is well over there :)
love this project man. every spring, i look forward to the new installment of this series
Thanks for watching! Hope all is well and thanks for following along over the years!

Lets Go Pete !!!!!!
Thanks for watching Gregg! Cheers man!
Neat!, thanks!
CooL!
Thank you for taking the time to comment and watch the video man!
What upgrades do you think you will make next year
Thanks so much! Potentially boards all around, more accessories ( stick holders etc ) - small bleacher setup -- always open to ideas! I tried to do a giant outdoor projection screen this season but unfortunately projectors don't do well in cold weather. If ya have any ideas for upgrades let me know!
Maybe next year you can put up some cameras and do live feeds. You could sell some advertising spots too, maybe to a Zamboni sponsor.
Thanks! I've thought about selling spots at some point, may be in the future:) Cheers!
Hi Pete can not find the norway flagg. Do i have to sned you one?
Hey! I didn't get a chance to hang up all the country flags this year as I just didn't get around to ordering new ones. I have to replace them each year because the wind really takes a toll on them. I'm sure you recognized the Norway, USA, Canada, Olympic, and state flag were all missing. They'll be back in the future! :) Cheers
Im still shocked you use your well to fill that beast. How did you go about getting that advice to abandon the water truck?
Pete, what Hockey position is your Son going to play? Cheers from Idaho!
Hey! haha it will be up to him, but he is a righty and if he follows in his dad's footsteps he will be a winger! I am a lefty and played left wing, but will see what he does! Hope all is well in Idaho and thanks for watching!
Is there a video of the 2022 2023 season?
Hey! There is not I actually tore my ACL playing mens league at the start of the season so unfortunately wasn't able to to the build. Here is a little more on it: czcams.com/video/wn9_Z5y15xw/video.htmlsi=xKTp28RY4-0MBLyi&t=1707
Ah ok, great video👍 excited for next year
"Promo sm" 😻
Tell your wife that a Zamboni is coming and that it’s for the children. Safer, better quality ice and as a result you’ll have more time to spend with the family🤷🏻♂️
Genius! :) It's all for the kids. That's what it is all about. I will have a heart to heart with her and heed your advice. haha brilliant! cheers man. love it.
