That's interesting. We call that kind of ice "rime" here; however if the ice was formed from the vapor phase and has very long crystals, we call it "hoarfrost."

We tried to skate at a rink on Dec 24th but were asked to leave on account of our skating backwards.

I'm good to stay unless they have limit on how many times you can fall down.

' if the ice was formed from the vapor phase and has very long crystals, we call it "hoarfrost." '
That was how it was formed, so I will edit ripe for hoarfrost.
