I'm planning on a conservative increase just 5 cm femur 178-183. I might do 3 cm tibia but probably not. I skate and play hockey as a hobby what is skating after LL like? Do you have to relearn everything again and can you get as good as before?

I'm an amateur player and hockey doesn't mean a whole lot to me can I play at maybe 80-90% of my former level at least?
