(1) Jerry Seltzer – now why didn't we have skates that looked like this?.

I will make this short.

All of our skates were provided to our skaters by the Roller Derby Skate Company…..they were high top (no toe stops) white for women, black for men…

They cost us $18.

I wanted them polished and pretty….the players avoided that….they thought something bad would happen if they did.

They hated ever breaking in a new pair, and would wear them forever, falling apart and taped.

Cliff Butler wore his for over 30 years until he was finally convinced to get Bonts.

I think these are just beautiful.

Oh, and Roller Derby Skates have decided to get back into Roller Derby with their Elites…..Tony Muse is your contact – of the World Cup Champion USA team.

And no, it is not my company.
