This is the main and first variation of Speed Skating. Like many events, as soon as GO! appears on the screen, the Wii Remote is shaken down. Then, for the first seconds of the race, the Wii Remote is continuously shaken. Soon, the player must flick the Wii Remote to the Left, to the Right, to the left etc. The trick is to shake it left-right-left-right in rhythm, not too quick and not too slow. In the last few seconds of the race (the game calls it "Final Sprint"), the player quickly shakes the Wii Remote up and down as fast as possible. Also, once in the race, the player can press the {{button|wii|A}} button for a Speed Boost.

In the DS version, the event is played the same way, but with a different set of buttons. The buttons that are used in the event are the shoulder buttons, {{button|ds|L}} and {{button|ds|R}}. To boost start, the player should hold the shoulder buttons when "2" appears on the game screen and let go when "GO" appears. Then the player presses the shoulder buttons alternately to accelerate. Once the player reaches a corner, he or she should hold {{button|ds|R}} while pressing {{button|ds|L}} to do a sharp turn. If the player wants to finish the race, he or she should use the shoulder buttons to do a final sprint.

The third variation of Speed Skating. It's similar to Short Track 1,000m. The Player skates 2 laps round the stadium with each player in 4 teams.
 
==Short Track 500m==
Variation number four in Speed Skating is the Short Track 500m. Again, just like the first variation, the shoulder buttons are used in this DS event. The player must do four laps around the track. The first three laps are 112.5m each which totals 337.5m, and the 4th lap has the player do the remaining 162.5m to finish his or her race.
 
==[[Omega]] Boss==
In the Wii version, Omega is played against in this event. The event play is the same as normal; however, it is against a boss/rival. Omega is a non-playable player and is only faced in Speed Skating 500m in Individual Festival and Short Track Relay in Team Festival.
