Its basically rollerskating (Inlines) If you have ever done that? Put one foot facing forward, push off the other one at a 45 degree angle. Then switch legs, so the leg that just was facing forward is pushing you. Kinda try to glide.

Hm... If I have understood correctly, this is with the two small "boards" in ur legs and the two sticks that u push to go further.
I havent done it, but I have seen snow countless times.

That is skiing, the is ice-skating.
And people who haven't seen snow: Ice-Skating is impossible on snow.

Ice is smooth and hard, the stuff you put in drinks.
Snow is thick and powdery, the stuff you throw (You can throw ice, but ouch :/ ) and can ski on. Hope that clears is up :)

Claw, I told you, that I have seen so many times snow and ice that I dont remember the number of them.

Ice skating now that I am thinking, is when u wear a type of shoes with scissors under them, and u go around and round.
Ok.. I was thinking to do while I was in the army, but I didnt because right that moment a guy fell and he probably broke something..:P

About the snow, I would like to do, but we need about 60 euro to gasoline to get there. We dont spend money on that. I believe its wasting of money, if I consider that till Monday I need to spend 250 euro~300$ to books..:P
All from my account. So, its hard.
