is bearing axial & radial play increasing your drag? (ice & roller skating)

adjusting your position, clothing and equipment, to reduce your drag, so that you get the most out of the power you're putting in - is this the idea? yes it is.

here, at this stage, we will only refer to:
- ice & roller skates (equipment),
- used (more or less) bearings - with a play (a &/or r), out of the manufacturer imposed limits.
the analogy (unusual) between ice s. & roller s., will be made on grounds of this play (a &/or r).

bearings are assembled with a slight amount of looseness between the balls and the raceways.
for further research related to bearings' axial & radial play, please take your time & visit:
JESA, Swiss bearings manufacturer.

schematic analogy r.s. - i.s.:
r.s.: a &/or r play (if any), of the rollers' bearings -
i.s.: a & or r play (if any), of  the grinding wheel shaft's bearings - when sharpening the skates -
could increase your drag & alter your intended trajectories, when (r. respectively i.) skating?
unfortunately yes.
