Skating in the US: A Family Activity or Competitive Pursuit?

[Roman]

For many families, skating is a fun weekend activity, but for others, it’s a serious, year-round commitment. Do you think skating should be more accessible for recreational skaters, or should it focus on developing competitive athletes? How do you balance the sport's recreational and competitive aspects in the US?

This depends on each person because each situation is different, there are people who do family skating for mere entertainment and hobby and other people do skating as a competitive activity.
