lexie z · February 2009

So I used to Roller Derby and miss skating. I retired last year but am itching to roll with other girls....I guess it would be cool for anyone, espically ex-derby girls and there friends or jeerleaders!!!!! I'm not really sure how to go about it all but where there is a will there is a way!!!!!
you can email me at [email protected]

Lets figure this out

I am SO into this.

anastasia beaverhausen · February 2009

Ha, why am I not surprised! I can totally see you in a black tutu with a studded collar winging around a roller rink and clothes-lining someone.

whatchuwant · February 2009

Dude, I KNOW, right?!?!

I'm on the hunt for a studded collar, people!

isn't the closest rink now in NJ? ...the one on Empire closed recently, Skate Key in the Bronx closed a while ago.

...I'm all for watching WCW get her anger out, but not sure I'll make the treck to NJ to do it.

All those '80s Roller Derby movies come to mind....

Argh! Why_Not- thanks for the info...

Actually, I think LIU on Flatbush let's outsiders rent their facilities...

Do they have a snack bar? I think a corn dog and pretzel is the appropriate meal to eat while watching such an event.

What ever happened to the Coney Island skate rink?

Whatchu, I may have some, ahem, items for a costume.

I'd make sure said items were disinfected prior to use. You know...just sayin'... :P

in addition to the corn dogs, I'd like heavy metal music.

whynot_31 · February 2009

I think they are the same as this place:

...which is "closed for winter", but I wonder if it will re-open given the much covered by the press Coney Island "renovations".

Rollerskating + violence = FUN!!

lexie z · February 2009
