Last week, I was in China for a Skate Cross competition.
"...A what?!"
I'm sure you derby girls will agree with the concept of the discipline. Actually despite all the differences, there's quite a lot of common points with derby. Despite that...
We use inline skates, no quad-skates.
You're alone against the world, no team.
The competition is unfolding on a street/skatepark, no flat-track.
