Zamboni
A Zamboni is a machine used to resurface ice rinks, ensuring a smooth and even surface for skating and hockey. It works by scraping off the top layer of ice, collecting shavings, and then laying down a thin layer of warm water that freezes quickly, creating a fresh surface.
Invented by Frank Zamboni in the 1940s, the Zamboni has become an essential part of ice sports. It is commonly seen at arenas hosting hockey games and figure skating events, helping maintain optimal conditions for athletes and enhancing the overall experience for spectators.
