Yeah, I just used a garden hose, fully open, to get as much water on as fast as possible. I filled the whole rink to about 1 inch deep, then while it was still a big puddle, used a landscaping rake (upside down) to level the slush out. I levelled it as one would level dirt before planting grass.
The whole process went pretty quick with the water so deep. It didnt dry totally level, but it only took about 4 floods after that to fill in all the depressions and bury the high spots.
That picture makes the rink look pretty big. But, it is only 20'x40'.
