WinterSports

by AGenius

WinterSports adds ice skates and other winter sport gear for NeoForge, with custom models and textures built on Geckolib.

NeoForgeClient and serverMIT License1.21.1 – 1.21.11

What it does

The mod adds ice skating and related winter sport activities to the game. Skates are crafted from iron, leather and string, and a cutter turns one iron ingot into four blades. A custom creative tab groups the new items so they are simple to find in the creative inventory.

Winter sports are the core of the mod, with custom models and textures for the new equipment. A custom game mechanic makes ice travel slower than travel on land, which changes how players move across frozen areas. Geckolib is required, and the mod is published for NeoForge only.

Files target 1.21.1 – 1.21.11, and the latest NeoForge file is 1.0 for 1.21.11, published on 2026-06-07 on the beta channel. The code is under the MIT License and is not open source. The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it.

Key features

  1. Ice skates

    Ice skates are added as wearable gear for skating on frozen surfaces.

  2. Skate blade crafting

    A cutter turns one iron ingot into four blades, which are then combined with leather boots, leather and string into skates.

  3. Custom models and textures

    The new winter sport items use custom models and textures rendered through Geckolib.

  4. Ice speed mechanic

    Movement on ice is slower than movement on land, so skating changes how players cross frozen ground.

What the author says

This nice NeoForge mod adds custom features all around the winter and sports, but you've probably already guessed that from the mod title I like ice skating. And I don't know why I haven't found any mod about ice skating, but this doesn't mean much because I'm genuenly not so good at finding things. So I made it…
