Let's Work Together To Bring Banked-Track Roller Sports Back To TV!
Hey Roller Fans...It has been some 19 years since ROLLERGAMES was on the air with fresh, new episodes. ROLLERJAM was another great series that lasted several years--but it, too, faded many years ago. Don't you think that it's time to bring back banked-track Roller Sports? I'm working hard to do so, and that's why I've created this website! (Thanks to the RGI for seeing the benefit of my using its domain for this fansite. I appreciate it!).
I also think that it is time for all teams and leagues to come TOGETHER to create the best possible TV program. That is another one of my goals. Keep in mind that I am not associated with any one team or organization. I don't own or operate the TBirds, the Bombers, or any other legacy team. I'm just a man on a mission to bring derby back to TV! So, I can have a clear head as to how to put all of the right elements together to present the very best of Roller Sports to the nation!
Thanks for your support and feedback. Together, we can make this happen! And, my friends, that would simply be DEVASTATING! drs

Toe stops are primarily used for getting off to a running start off the line and for standing up, not for stopping.
The funny thing is that per John Hall the reason classic Roller Derby skaters didn't use toe stops was because USARSA (USARS and RSA…
