It is so funny to see the reaction of others at the skate park when a derby league turns up in all their gear. There was a bit of banter, but the sad thing was that the smart-ass comments mainly came from the older ones at the park. And by older I mean they were late teens-early twenties. The funniest comment was from one of the younger boys riding a scooter who announced that skates didn't belong at the skate park! Maybe too many falls without a helmet on?
In a whole different environment it is great to see the skills of the derby girls. I think Underage Rage was born with wheels on her feet. The highest skate ramp... well a picture speaks a thousand words...
And then there were the flying lessons. Rage got the height...
the others weren't quite so successful...
A great time out for the league. A skate park is a public venue, paid for by the public. It really is such a shame that some seem to think that it is their own personal property. Great to see that the girls weren't really fazed by them though!
I wonder what he was thinking?
