Roller Speed Skating
Roller speed skating is a great way to keep in shape, express your competitive side, or just have fun. We welcome both Quad and Inline skaters and are always looking for new skaters to join our team. For practice times see our Schedule page. All ages are welcome we only ask that you already know how turn left and cross-over (outside foot steps forward and in front of inside foot).
"Don't practice until you get it right. Practice until you can't get it wrong."
