We've loved ice skating since we first arrived at Second Life, and have recently upgraded our rusty, dusty old skating AO. This has been one of our largest projects, and when we finished we stood back and admired our handiwork, as we are wont to do.

Unlike many skating animations, most of ours feature rather normal kinds of skating, not what you might see at the Winter Olympics. My avatar has improved her ice skating skills considerably since she began skating, mind you, but she's not perfect. That would be DULL!

Your Wingsong AO HUD - Skating V2 is a substantial upgrade from our original skating Animation Overrides. It features 20 original Wingsong animations, including 5 skating formations, a sitting formation for use with your FREE Wingsong Saucer Sled enclosed, snow boarding for use with your FREE Wingsong Snow Board enclosed, a snow angel, gorgeous turns, a basic walk and a basic run. For complete fun, I've included an animation that has you with your head stuck way into the snow and your feet kicking. It's a scream!

These are not simple standard poses. They are full featured, kinesthetically accurate animations meticulously researched and designed by my own little paws.

HOW TO USE:

1 - Remove or Disable other Animation Overrides. ADD your Wingsong AO HUD - Skating V2. It will automatically position itself near the bottom right of your screen. Small and nearly transparent, it is very unobtrusive and you can easily reposition and modify it.

2 - Clicking on the Power Switch (the left button of your HUD) makes your AO active; clicking it again disables it. Very handy. The switch turns green when active and fades into near invisibility when disabled.

3 - Clicking on the Wingsong Logo (the right button of your HUD) brings up 11 adjunct animations (see above for specifics). There are a few animations from the main AO in the adjunct menu as well.

4 - Your AO provides an onboard BOAT MODE. To walk, run, or skate over natural Linden water turn your AO off by clicking the power switch to off, click on the Wingsong Logo, and select the animation of your choice.

BONUSES

1 - Wingsong Navigation HUD: Its features are too numerous to spell out here. It's a very simple to use HUD. OPEN the navigation box separately and read the enclosed info sheet to take full advantage of the great features. Compatible with virtually all attachments on the grid, your cruise control allows you to travel without having to keep your fingers on the keys, and you can go at whatever speed you want! Also has a speedometer, altimeter, and compass. Set your own speed between very slow to very fast, and everything in between! I seldom leave home without my Wingsong navigation HUD.

2 - Wingsong High Top Shoes HF Ice V3: These are part of our large Happy Feet series of shoes and are slightly oversized for comic effect. Touch them to toggle a delightful trail dust of snow and ice.

3 - Matching Wingsong Skating Cap V3 and Wingsong Skating Scarf B: Touch the little ball on top of the cap to toggle a great snow emitter on and off. The scarf is flexi and adds a nice bit of animation to your ride.

4 - Wingsong Saucer Sled WEAR no Animations: This is a full perm saucer sled shell that you can wear when you access your Sit Skating animation from the adjunct AO system. ADD it from your inventory.

5 - Wingsong Snow Board WEAR no Animations. This is a full perm snow board shell that you can wear when you access your Snow Board animation from the adjunct AO system. ADD it from your inventory.

Everything here is COPY/MOD, so make all the copies you want and recolor, redecorate, resize, retexture, reDO to make it fit YOUR specs! I'm even throwing in a FREE Wingsong Modify Box, a simple, easy to use tutorial for folks with little experience in the EDIT tool.

For questions or a live demonstration of this or any of our fine/fun Wingsong products, IM Kit Ciaco!

NOTE: This HUD is VERY similar to the animation engine in our Wingsong Snow Folk V2 WEAR - Skating AO.

This might have been "great" in 2012, but not anymore in 2020. The hand made animations are nothing great to look at.

This uncomplicated HUD is easy to use out of the box. It comes with some outdated clothing, but the saucer and snowboard work great with it. Definitely a bargain.

First animation are so smooth that they make the skating on my ice rink, like a kid game. Animations are lovely, the hud is really easy to use, and i could even add some other animations inside. i use it every day. For a so cheap price i wasnt expecting so great hud. It deserves even more than 5 stars.
