As a new zamboni driver, my anxiety was high when kids screamed, bang the glass, and tap their sticks till my coworkers told me to honk the horn to entertain them. I thought they wanted me to go faster. Lol
@@theLovatoFam it takes so much concentration at first I thought I was going to get fired. You find ways to adjust. I have to say that making a clean sheet now is challenging. And if I fail and get canned tomorrow I still have zamboni driver crossed of my list.
I just finished training for zamboni at my local rink grew up learning how to skate there and played hockey for 10 years there now at 18 im driving what makes my favorite ice, CLEAN ICE!
Yeah, I 'member truck drivers honking their big horns when we did the "pull down fist" signal to them while waiting for the school bus. Glad to see the tradition lives on with zamboni drivers. They are the one I cheer for at hockey games.
I'm in my 6th season driving Zamboni and Olympia. I feel lucky to have one of each machine at our facility. I would love to have an opportunity to drive for an NHL team. The small town I'm in has a senior team and we occaisonally host Jr. B games but daaaaamn I want to see the big crowds.
My sister and I were watching an ice skater do her performance and she was not doing so good. I could see that the ice was not smooth at all and probably hadn't been resurfaced in awhile. I remember telling my sister it was time to bring out the Zamboni and she said Yeah it is. I think the unsmooth ice was messing up her performance. I love to watch a Zamboni.
So they have one motor for every wheel. That's what electric car should have, instead of one or two motors with differentials that cause some energy losses in the gearings. I always wondered why the driver is not sit on the front of the Zamboni.
Okotoks. When I first lived in Calgary and started working in the area and heard that name then I saw their giant rock. Weird seeing it on a random ice resurface video
Been driving zam for 3 years. It is fun but the pay is garbage $15/hr. I cut 10 times a day. I see hundreds of kids a day and getting a cold is part of the deal.

You can drive these on your front yard to lay snow for bobsleds to appear and to squish plants
You would be mistaken, those are zOmbonis, Zambonis are not legally lawn driveable.

For the kids?! The zamboni guy at my local rink growing up would charge the kids $5 to get out on the ice 😂
When I see this car, I somehow get scared, because I remember that zombies still drive it...
Are Zambonis commercial vehicles?
There should be a National Zamboni Driver Day.
