Recently
I thought about how small our skating community is in terms of
sharing knowledge and how little under developed areas have access
to good coaching and thought, what about a facebook page where all
the coaches and athletes, officials and supporters can share their
knowledge, discuss events, techniques and upload videos and photos,
stories and so on.. moments later, Sk8rAid was online and
within 4 days I had over 1,000 fans sign on in support, which is
truly amazing, now inside a week there are almost 1,500 fans. I've
uploaded 4 videos (see above for example of one) so far from my time
spent at the Italian Stage in Rocaraso, where all the master coaches
met and ran a truly amazing workshop with more than 150 skaters and
90 trainers. It was phenomenal. Anyway, the videos have been getting
amazing responses and it seems there is a need for it and personally
I think its a huge step forward for our sport, for our trainers to
communicate and for the development of our athletes. If you are
already a member, great - thanks, if not be sure to log onto
Facebook and become a fan [here]

Face a great success..
Thanks
to all the members of the skating community that came to support the
play at the Melbourne Arts Centre, 'The Man with the September
Face'.. it was great to see so many skaters there each night and
more so, great to see a play in a capital city that centered on the
world of roller skating.

Man With The September Face - Rock'n Roller show hits town
The
Age: The Man with the September Face centres on a
15-year-old champion roller skater beginning to realise the world
outside the confines of his suburban rink. An enchanting new girl
arrives in town - "she's a little bit exotic," says
playwright Kylie Trounson, "because she's lived in
Adelaide" - while his skating nemesis, the rink's DJ and
resident bad boy, threatens his place at the top of the tree.. Also
starring locals skaters including myself, Melanie Van Dyk
and Chantelle Carroll.. Tickets are limited due to popularity
at the Melbourne Arts Centre, Dec 9-19. Opening night lastnight was
a huge success with thirty members from the media there, so the
reviews will be out soon.. For tickets go [here]
