When did the tripods start to appear? Was that due to a rule change?

Mogwai 💕

I love roller derby

What is the song at 22: with the wah wah pedal??

Amused by all the emasculated men who have to show how hard they are by being homophobic and misogynistic. Dudes if you were true men you'd be happy with your sexuality and not need to comment...

No. This is stroller derby.

Try doing splits on skates... I can do it it is easy😝

That looks mint, and although I'm male and would love a cracking at it I genuinely think there would be something lacking if guys were to start doing it in large numbers. Im proud that there is such an individual sport that is competitive but not corrupted by sponsorship, egos and fellas. Love it!!

Ill pass.

This is not real Roller Derby...Real Roller Derby is skated on a banked track.

Looks like a tamed down version of Roller Hockey.

Looks dull.

Girl at 9:37 kinda looks like Dita Von Teese

Nice doc, what is tune at the end ?

The circuits seem pretty small compared to the 50's, I guess there are no purpose built ones nowdays.

underrated sport, sadly. Saw it first in the movie 'Whip it'

This is insanely cool :D Honestly, i think girl's should keep this sport, it's so unique!

Awesome sport! Never seen it before. I hope my town gets a team so i can go watch. Some of the girls in this were stunning too!

Why does everything have to have a poxy shitass soundtrack? I want to hear the GAME, not your bullshit taste in music!

I just started on a roller derby team and I love it. Now my daughter is doing it too!!!

Hmm, I skate in her league. I'm SO going to point out this comment to her!

Just do it. you'll do fresh meat at first, where they teach you the skills to play. you'll get a feel for it and whether it's something you'll enjoy as you go along.

great video! this has been a deciding factor in whether I wanted to try derby! I definitely want to!! Thanks for the great info.

How do I know if I should join in on roller derby?I really want to but at the same time, i still question myself. I like to know a lot about it and think hard about things before I do them.

I'd love to try this sport, I'm still in high school at the moment. But I have this urge for it kinda like I did when I wanted to try out for wrestling. Being a 5ft 106 pound girl on a high school wrestling team (nothing but guys, and 40 pounds heavier than me) is the best & toughest experience in my life so far. Hopefully derby will be the same.

Thanks. It's a cool tune.

mogwai- how to be a werewolf

I play men's roller derby and since I started in 2010 I have lost over 70 pounds.

Sure does, but roller derby girls are just awesome like that!

What's the name of the tune that plays at the start of this? Anyone know please?

Aw, this footage is so old it still has two-whistle starts in it. Bless.

Oh, I sense that some pretty roller girl told you ''In your dreams'' haha...

pissoff

I like it, generally, but I do wish the banked tracks could be brought back.

This is ridiculous. Some future truckers in this video.

Contact your local team and say you're interested in setting up a junior/under 18's team! That's what I did at the start of the year and me and a few friends are going and watching their practices every week and every joining in now and then! Once we've got enough interest, the team are ecstatic about having one of the very few junior teams in the UK!

I just joined and so happy i did.. this was so inspiring.. Thank you!

I want to join a team. But i'm only 13 :(

I'm trying out for my local team this weekend. I'm so excited! CAN NOT WAIT!

Roller Derby started in the 1930's - that 'Black Dahlia' clearly doesn't know what she's talking about.

losser, chics are having a great time. piss off your the one that sucks

Depends where you live really. I know that junior/under 18's teams exist out here in the UK, you just have to find one! It's not limited to over 18's only.

I'm 15, just received my skates through mail and me and some friends are currently working with the local team to set up an under 18's roller derby team. We're looking to start practice in a few weeks now! Can't wait!!

this looks like soooo much fun :)

My mom is just starting roller derby this year, she is very good.. When she did her laps she did 25 in a shorter time than the coach. Also her first bout is on December 12th, so excited! the coach is deciding to start to train her to be a jammer and I am so proud of her!

AWESOME!

I actually love roller derby. It's crazy because when watching it on youtube it looks like nothing, but when watching it live people are really into it. Not to mention the hits are CRAZY.

@ jerry. Violence does sell but it is not like wrestling. Maybe if you got track and took a hit you would have a different point of view. Don't knock something that is real unless you have been hit and play. other than that you are ignorant

Where are all the elbows, clotheslines, and women being thrown over the rail to the floor. Violence sells. Maybe if you tried some, you'd sell out arenas instead of gyms.

Flat track sucks and always will.
