to "long time derby fan"

Clearly, you do not know what you are talking about. Point one, the deductible from USARS for banked, compared to flat. Significantly higher and you know why? Because they can get seriously injured just like the rest of us, but tell me how a fall from 5 feet to a concrete surface is not as bad as flying into a couple of fans on a flat track? I strongly support both, and the girl in the "midwest"- Tequila Mockingbird- that was a freak accident- one time out of over 6 or 7 THOUSAND skaters, where as back in the day there were only a couple hundred, playing a scripted sport.
And maybe I use a skater name because I want to remain anonymous somewhat in the public eye, plus this is a release, a hobby- and this is another side of me, my given name is not a reflection of who I am on the track.
