You don't need a pond to enjoy backyard skating anymore. EZ Ice ($1,900) is a skating rink in a kit that can be set up in 60 minutes or less on any relatively flat surface, with no assembly tools required. Each kit contains snap-together panels, brackets, and a liner, and you can order custom dimensions or choose from seven standard sizes, up to and including a $14,900 rink big enough for a regulation NHL game. Once all the pieces are assembled, all you need is a hose — and about a weeklong cold spell.
