I worked my way up through the amateur class the long and difficult way- from last place qualifier to trying to break the top ten to racing for podium spots to be a top am. My belief is that the Amateur class is a learning area, where you can learn to skate and learn to race. I've raced in all sorts...

I think declared Pro-Am-Masters is most fair because if you are a pro, you are there to race other pros ect... ect.. when we open qualify you often lose the opportunity to race rivals or move up with in your division. If the top Ams qualify at the bottom of the 16 they will never get to race each ot...

I got there around 12:45 and had a great solo sess. I set the gnarrrliest hybrid course- a string of 6ers curving twice before throwing you into some big offsets which led to a bunch of off the line 7 footers which felt like 5 footers at that speed. We are soooo lucky to have that spot- it's a perfe...

It was 3 weeks before my 18th birthday so I went just to enter the Junior division while I still could. I learned a lot and it's one of the reasons I'm still skating today. BUT Put y...

Hi there
Are there any skaters in the Maastricht area? I'm coming over to visit the University of Maastricht in march. It would be awesome to skate around.
