Where did you read this?
I don't remember the article but it talked about renting skate and helmet forn $10.00 but it said you could use your own. Based on that I would expect the ice time is free. If I'm wrong I'm sorry but how can they charge $10.00 to rent stakes and helmet and give free ice time and then charge for those who have their own equipment.

The Disney Parks Blog says "Skating sessions are $10 for 30 minutes on the ice, including the use of ice skates, socks and a helmet." That leads me to believe it's $10 whether you use your own equipment or not.

I agree with @danlb_2000 on this one. Just because you don't take advantage of everything that is included doesn't mean the price goes down. Granted, we don't know for sure, but it would be nice if there was more information that specified how much skating would cost if you bring your own skates, as this is very unclear.

They should just say it is rental skates only. Who wants to smell people's personal skates out in the heat of the park?
I seriously doubt you can bring your own skates. In other news, has anyone seen my skates?
Yes they are allowing you to bring you own, but it does not remove the $10 fee.

I am fed up myself - while I enjoyed the movie there is no comparison to Beauty and the Beast or The Little Mermaid (in terms of princess). I like the Lion King but I only prefer the music and the stage show at AK - the cartoon is not enjoyable. Frozen is overrated and for the life of me I do not see the craze besides little girls (and boys) have a new princess to look up to.

Hmmm ice skating at DHS? FAIL! Not interested! I can go ice skating for free on campus. And the thought of doing that type of exercise during my vacation is silly.

Yet another good point. Also, who wants to carry their skates around all day? I know I wouldn't be hopping over to HS just to ice skate for 30 minutes, but I would think carrying them around in a bag could be dangerous on some of the rides, so then you're getting into locker fees, etc. Probably more hassle than it's worth.
Theyre seriously gonna let me and my (once upon a time) sharp hockey skates in through the front?!!? Wow.

Probably be a very small number of people who bring their own equipment.

Don't worry - you can enjoy DHS without having to participate.
Hat Stage sits empty during the day - so bonus show during the day
Premiere Theatre sits empty - so not missing anything
Soundstage One sits empty - so not missing anything
Dance Party is a Dance Party - no change for you.
Fireworks launch at 9:45pm - turn your head on the way out, hell, you might be able to get out of the lot easier since you are over the crazy
Its FLORIDA! This will be a hit.

Funny, its not like they are a business trying to make $$$.
To be clear from my point of view $10 for 1/2 hour of ice skating is DIRT CHEAP, cheaper than it is here before ice skate rental charges.

I don't see it personally but a lot of people get it and have really bought into Frozen. Actually, I really liked Paperman much more than Frozen but that is simply my opinion, I am in the minority.
