Standard Ice Walkers
The small walker accommodates very small children who hold the front crossbar at 21″ height, and then progress to using the side handles, which are 28″ inches high. It is most commonly used from 18 months through age 6-8 years, depending on the height of the child. The medium walker is for taller 6-8 year olds through a maximum height of 5’9″. The large walker is for those over 5’9″ in height when wearing their skates. The sides fold on all three sizes for convenient storage and transportation.
