I Play Roller Derby

I've been playing roller derby on/off for about 6 years now, it's the only sport I've ever enjoyed, and defo the only one I've ever been any good at!

The best thing about it, hitting the bar afterwards battered and bruised with the other girls, all looking like a trainwreck!

The worst thing, when practising and you decide you don't need kneepads then you fall, ripped tights, skint knees, just like being a child again 馃榿

And the Ellen Page movie, meh, its alright...
I was asked to try out for a roller derby a few years ago. I couldn't because I didn't want to get hurt and have to work too. I still would like to though...I might. I love rollerskating.

@PoetryNEmotion Give it a go! If you wear enough padding you'll be fine 馃ゴ
@Ravers90 I don't know. I imagine flying over those rails could cause some damage. And I do have to work.

Did you ever see the Raquel Welch movie, Kansas City Bomber? It was about a fictional Roller Derby star. 鈽猴笍
