so fun 0:02:27.360,0:02:32.069 yeah when I learned a lot of things that were ya we have a friend to work 0:02:32.069,0:02:35.310 together with you there who I work with now to be us 0:02:35.310,0:02:38.700 hello to be as a yes yeah 0:02:39.750,0:02:47.730 okay great so today's topic is roller derby 0:02:47.730,0:02:57.030 really baby so perhaps just shortly what is roller derby rather busy for contact 0:02:57.030,0:03:06.269 sport played on quads and it's a sport that it came to life again in 2001 in 0:03:06.269,0:03:10.470 texas by the Texas roller girls and 0:03:10.990,0:03:16.600 shortly after they started then other teams popped up and then it was like a 0:03:16.600,0:03:22.930 global effect that just took over and suddenly the roller derby team is 0:03:22.930,0:03:23.710 everywhere 0:03:23.710,0:03:31.270 ok interesting and yeah so in and but first we're gonna say it's it came up 0:03:31.270,0:03:33.280 again so it was before 0:03:33.280,0:03:37.720 already yeah yeah if i remember correctly what I've read 0:03:38.470,0:03:41.650 I think roller derby started and out 0:03:42.220,0:03:44.530 also in the US 0:03:44.530,0:03:52.030 in the nineteen twenties and yeah as a as a public sport 0:03:52.030,0:03:59.440 mhm Oh public sport like an oh my english is a little bit rusty but and 0:03:59.440,0:04:05.020 well at arenas where people could go and have fun and just see 0:04:05.020,0:04:08.860 and in the beginning it wasn't a contact sport at all 0:04:08.860,0:04:17.709 oh ok so there were both that was always on a banked track and and there were two 0:04:18.609,0:04:25.570 there were two teams had played each other but in one men's at two men's 0:04:25.570,0:04:29.740 teams against each other into women's teams against each other 0:04:29.740,0:04:33.250 so you have both men and women on the track not simultaneously 0:04:33.250,0:04:38.470 ok so first they would filled out the men and then the men would do a road 0:04:38.470,0:04:43.150 trip with jag and then they would the jam would end and they would put on 0:04:43.150,0:04:44.200 women on the track 0:04:44.200,0:04:49.750 so they don't know and I'm not like football here where you only go and see 0:04:49.750,0:04:50.560 one game 0:04:50.560,0:04:57.910 no okay yeah so so it would them but then the person who started roller derby 0:04:57.910,0:04:59.710 at thought that 0:04:59.710,0:05:06.460 oh maybe the public would the public liked when action happened on the track 0:05:06.460,0:05:11.169 so people started really hitting each other and in the beginning it was staged 0:05:11.169,0:05:15.580 ok all the hitting and then this person said that 0:05:16.300,0:05:22.390 well if people like it staged then why don't we do this properly and just 0:05:22.390,0:05:25.539 incorporated and you can do it for real 0:05:25.539,0:05:31.570 and then people didn't like it because it's still thought it was staged and on 0:05:31.570,0:05:32.740 it was enough 0:05:32.740,0:05:37.570 yeah yeah yeah and and then came second world war 0:05:37.570,0:05:41.530 so people suddenly didn't have the money to go and watch the games and it kind of 0:05:41.530,0:05:42.020 right 0:05:42.020,0:05:48.259 and but i think that that there have been teams throughout like the sixties 0:05:48.259,0:05:50.620 and seventies 0:05:50.620,0:05:58.690 with no helmets whatever it is like crazy and but then suddenly in 2001 0:05:58.690,0:06:00.160 Texas they said that 0:06:00.160,0:06:03.280 ok we're doing flat track roller derby let's do this 0:06:03.820,0:06:07.510 when they did and we are thankful we 0:06:07.510,0:06:13.990 I am very thankful that they did that but right now it's mostly how spot which 0:06:13.990,0:06:18.850 displayed by women as far as i understand this seem to be somewhere 0:06:18.850,0:06:22.570 sometimes with four men but no but money 0:06:22.570,0:06:28.120 yeah i think in the US and then in the united kingdom 0:06:28.930,0:06:32.740 it's it's more spread at their more men team 0:06:32.740,0:06:37.419 men's teams ok then they are in say Scandinavia 0:06:37.419,0:06:44.380 but so just to get a number you should make five percent or forty percent or oh 0:06:44.380,0:06:50.169 I don't know the numbers because i think that in the whole world there are many 0:06:50.169,0:06:52.030 many teams 0:06:52.030,0:06:53.300 good 0:06:53.300,0:06:57.440 and many leagues are just popping up all the time 0:06:57.440,0:06:58.849 ok 0:06:58.849,0:07:01.999 so I know so just because 0:07:02.839,0:07:06.649 but just because you have a league doesn't mean that your league plays 0:07:06.649,0:07:11.629 roller derby because you need an amount of skaters to to be able to do that and 0:07:11.629,0:07:16.339 they need to learn to skate so we have many leagues even in Sweden and that our 0:07:16.339,0:07:22.999 roller derby leagues great but they don't play games in roller derby because 0:07:22.999,0:07:25.580 they don't have enough skaters yet so slow 0:07:25.580,0:07:29.809 why are building up where they're building up the team so so but but there 0:07:31.159,0:07:34.759 I'm I'm just happy they're absolutely 0:07:34.759,0:07:42.649 so what is your team called my team is called Dustin brother be and is one of 0:07:42.649,0:07:47.749 the teams in gothenburg how many tombs and there are three teams in Gothenburg 0:07:47.749,0:07:54.439 okay so get number roller derby which is a woman's team and and then you have 0:07:54.439,0:08:01.879 ducks in rollers also been steamed and then we have a salty seaman different 0:08:01.879,0:08:03.169 result to see you much culture 0:08:03.169,0:08:07.999 who are the men's team and they also have a junior league interesting names 0:08:07.999,0:08:16.099 yeah and and and I'm just saying women and men's team just to make it easy 0:08:16.099,0:08:19.430 yeah so I'm sorry if any of the you listening 0:08:19.430,0:08:22.999 don't feel like you're a incorporated in any of those 0:08:23.809,0:08:37.550 yeah yeah ok cool so yeah but the beat back to to your personally before we

for the mustache but the heritage 0:10:28.370,0:10:35.070 is gonna be okay here 0:10:35.070,0:10:41.100 so the University of parents or how often island in Aries 0:10:41.100,0:10:44.580 I go to Greece like once or twice a year 0:10:44.580,0:10:49.740 mhm I like going there for Easter because it's like Arthur docks easter is 0:10:49.740,0:10:53.400 the best taste or you can have the morning should meet so how is a 0:10:53.400,0:10:54.750 different view 0:10:54.750,0:11:01.350 well it's it's it's just it's i love traditions and maybe it's because my 0:11:01.350,0:11:06.630 grandma my grandparents read it really celebrated Easter and it's kind of close 0:11:06.630,0:11:14.280 too hard you know and and it's like you know we eat a lot and I love eating and 0:11:14.280,0:11:18.720 and it's it's just become so Greek when you just say you know what we're gonna 0:11:18.720,0:11:26.370 have a whole lamp and then we are going to have some more meat and then we're 0:11:26.370,0:11:32.490 going to have some sound lads and some potatoes and then some more meat and and 0:11:32.490,0:11:38.520 which is going to eat until we can walk and then maybe maybe - you're there is 0:11:38.520,0:11:40.530 going to be like cake afterwards 0:11:40.530,0:11:44.790 nice and and and I like eating and it's kind of a social thing 0:11:44.790,0:11:51.150 so and everyone has happened it's always so beautiful in the spring and the 0:11:51.150,0:11:53.880 colors are the flowers and everything 0:11:53.880,0:11:58.410 and yeah I can imagine i've never been to Greece with should go 0:11:58.410,0:12:01.500 everyone should go to Greece once in their lifetime 0:12:02.040,0:12:07.170 I really believe that that's it's where democracy came from and everything so 0:12:07.170,0:12:08.550 yeah 0:12:08.550,0:12:09.830 cool 0:12:09.830,0:12:12.890 so we met in at the University 0:12:12.890,0:12:18.830 many many years ago what exactly have you been studying there and i started at 0:12:18.830,0:12:19.880 the Teachers program 0:12:19.880,0:12:25.880 ok so is it just your teacher but but there are many kinds of teachers in 0:12:25.880,0:12:28.190 sports teacher or yeah 0:12:28.190,0:12:37.850 20 insurance I i studied at them what they call the new all teachers program 0:12:37.850,0:12:46.190 because they have just come up with so many and so I have a bachelor's teaching 0:12:46.190,0:12:56.810 degree and like in sport and physical education and in Swedish language and 0:12:56.810,0:13:03.740 math and the natural sciences and Social Sciences 0:13:05.000,0:13:08.209 that's great a lot and yeah and 0:13:08.209,0:13:14.389 and then and let your time teaching and up to grade 6 0:13:14.899,0:13:22.819 ok so it was at the time when you could actually just study everything and get a 0:13:22.819,0:13:26.660 degree and what it was a much better time 0:13:26.660,0:13:31.970 yeah because I mean to be honest we studied computer science and back then 0:13:31.970,0:13:36.110 in the first year was like you had to study this and that and that it was like 0:13:36.110,0:13:41.179 half month how come you to science but after that you could just choose and 0:13:41.179,0:13:44.179 pick you whatever you wanted in this was super awesome 0:13:45.110,0:13:50.869 yeah when you get to to to decide for yourself what you want to 0:13:50.869,0:13:54.649 exactly because i think that if you can't decide them that's more like 0:13:54.649,0:13:59.569 school and not that much like in the university way you should I supposed to 0:13:59.569,0:14:05.779 come out that are basically a better person and not only like have learned 0:14:05.779,0:14:08.300 stuff which you can use in your job later on 0:14:08.300,0:14:15.889 mhm yeah ok ok cool so let's get back to roller derby and have and could you 0:14:15.889,0:14:18.649 explain how so 0:14:18.649,0:14:23.600 so it's on Rollo blades is it cold like that or now like that 0:14:23.600,0:14:28.970 they're called quad skates quad skates which are like this old ate it 0:14:28.970,0:14:33.589 I remember it from the eighties I had such not not exactly like that but like 0:14:33.589,0:14:38.720 wrist two in the front and doing the bag and instead of us in lines me we have 0:14:38.720,0:14:39.799 today 0:14:39.799,0:14:44.990 yeah so like this and one then you have for a lot of other stuff on your would 0:14:44.990,0:14:48.350 visit and we have a lot of protection year 0:14:48.350,0:14:50.070 so what you have 0:14:50.070,0:14:56.760 a helmet a mouth guard wrist guards elbow pads and knee pads and those are 0:14:56.760,0:14:58.140 not optional 0:14:58.140,0:15:04.320 you have to have them and then we have people who have like you know some like 0:15:04.320,0:15:05.730 rugby shirts 0:15:05.730,0:15:10.050 I think they called like rugby players were in order to protect their their 0:15:10.050,0:15:21.450 upper chest and back and we have people who have like things and for their ribs 0:15:21.450,0:15:29.670 ribs and yeah so so people have like all kinds of extras 0:15:29.670,0:15:37.560 ok in order to protect themselves is it a violent sport or why do you have so 0:15:37.560,0:15:38.670 much protection 0:15:38.670,0:15:43.770 I wouldn't say it's violent but it's a full contact sport and I mean you are on 0:15:43.770,0:15:44.820 quads 0:15:44.820,0:15:49.500 yeah so I mean it's not we're not born with wheels under our feet 0:15:49.500,0:15:57.060 gluten is so when when you fall and you can fall really hard this week and when 0:15:57.060,0:15:58.500 you get a hit 0:15:58.500,0:16:02.940 that's really big you know you can fly for a couple of meters 0:16:02.940,0:16:09.000 who ok because you're so fast it is a fast and they're so hard and it and it 0:16:09.000,0:16:11.700 it really it really depends 0:16:11.700,0:16:17.220 I mean I have like I have knee pads under my knee pads like I have like 0:16:17.220,0:16:19.160 extras ok 0:16:19.160,0:16:26.750 so yeah because you you still you're still going hopefully to do something of 0:16:26.750,0:16:33.470 the roller derby later in your life and you will need all your parts and harder 0:16:33.470,0:16:34.399 to do that 0:16:34.399,0:16:40.610 yeah absolutely but I guess it helps a lot with with on the pending so I'm yeah 0:16:40.610,0:16:47.449 so did our people getting hurt much or is it like sometimes but not that much 0:16:47.959,0:16:53.180 I mean we do we do get the cash falam and 0:16:53.180,0:17:02.420 and what is the twisting of the ankle or or a a rape that's like having has a 0:17:02.420,0:17:06.110 crack in it or concussions 0:17:06.110,0:17:10.730 all right it does I think you don't have much from the reason you yeah but but 0:17:10.730,0:17:15.710 still concussions are really easy to obtain if you're not careful 0:17:16.340,0:17:19.580 ok because when you I mean I did that a lot 0:17:19.580,0:17:26.870 I fell on my hand on my back and then I didn't have the neck muscles to keep my 0:17:26.870,0:17:30.980 head up so my head would BAM on the floor and I mean okay once or twice but 0:17:30.980,0:17:36.200 then I get it every time so I got these small concussions and then suddenly you 0:17:36.200,0:17:41.990 get a big head and you fall on your head and then it just not good 0:17:41.990,0:17:45.680 absolutely so you really learned that ok 0:17:45.680,0:17:50.360 it's it's bad with a broken bone but also concussions we have people where 0:17:50.360,0:17:53.960 players that stop playing roller derby do two concussions too many concussions 0:17:53.960,0:17:57.890 and so watch your heads people 0:17:57.890,0:18:02.840 so let's talk about the track with your on 0:18:03.350,0:18:09.140 it's an oval track which is how big is it - bowed and i would say that's about 0:18:09.140,0:18:12.320 100 and 150 meters long 0:18:12.320,0:18:17.930 yeah like other different for different in different places or no it's the same 0:18:17.930,0:18:19.580 slander flag shack 0:18:19.580,0:18:26.300 ok and so I think it's like four and a half meters wide and then 100 or 150 0:18:26.300,0:18:29.060 meters on the run around 0:18:29.060,0:18:33.860 is it a special trick for you guys or is it something which is used for boys and 0:18:33.860,0:18:38.480 also know it's a special track for for us 0:18:38.480,0:18:42.560 almost what we want to have such a team then your first have to build a trick 0:18:43.490,0:18:49.010 if you want to you we usually practice at the venues here in gothenburg like my 0:18:49.010,0:18:55.100 team and we have gotten the lines painted on the floor 0:18:55.100,0:18:58.460 ok so we don't have to lay a track ok 0:18:58.460,0:19:05.660 always so you you can have either and visit outside or in certain ways and we 0:19:05.660,0:19:10.910 have an outside check at fred hammond on which we call her limited which is kind 0:19:10.910,0:19:11.390 of funny 0:19:11.390,0:19:14.780 ok ok and that's on concrete 0:19:15.470,0:19:19.910 ok but then I in the halls in our venues 0:19:19.910,0:19:23.480 yeah it's like wood wood floor ok yeah 0:19:23.480,0:19:30.110 and so as long as the surface is like blood flat then then you can play derby 0:19:30.110,0:19:37.670 ok and does every team have their own here and do some work or how many teams 0:19:37.670,0:19:41.960 are here and go somewhere and we have three teams in gothenburg we have gotten 0:19:41.960,0:19:43.850 the roller derby which I'm a part of 0:19:43.850,0:19:50.510 we have dark city rollers and then you have vests let's get all the derby since 0:19:50.510,0:19:55.850 carpet which have a mint team immense team got embrace all the semen 0:19:56.809,0:20:01.370 yeah I see funny names cool 0:20:01.370,0:20:07.970 and so it should so I all the teams to training on the same tracks order to do 0:20:07.970,0:20:10.400 it does everyone have their own venue 0:20:10.400,0:20:14.510 oh we don't have our own venues we're not there yet and so we we just 0:20:15.380,0:20:22.940 through a uff which is it brought back feelings for bumping in here in 0:20:22.940,0:20:29.750 Gothenburg and we booked ourselves times in the venue so we can have practices 0:20:29.750,0:20:35.300 which is from from those suits from the city yeah and and this is how it goes in 0:20:35.300,0:20:42.920 in sweet and all their all and and it's it's different in different cities but 0:20:42.920,0:20:50.810 most cities now I think have painted tracks in their venues want to make it 0:20:50.810,0:20:56.930 easier and easier and and and now i think the cities have them and body 0:20:56.930,0:20:58.850 painted trucks will do me 0:20:58.850,0:21:03.770 well it'sit's we have lines that that that you can so you can see that there's 0:21:03.770,0:21:08.060 an inside line and an outside line on the on the track so just a commercial 0:21:08.060,0:21:13.490 for roller derby or yeah yeah and then amongst our lines then you have the 0:21:13.490,0:21:18.020 handball four years lines and the first of all lines and the basketball eyes and 0:21:18.020,0:21:20.600 good no mmm yeah 0:21:20.600,0:21:28.940 ok cool so let's talk about the game 0:21:29.630,0:21:37.100 yeah how does it work so you're a couple of people on the track on on your what 0:21:37.100,0:21:41.840 this girl not skates or one quads to use a suit against the state 0:21:42.350,0:21:48.170 you can have bad taste and see squats because them or in skates are something 0:21:48.170,0:21:48.530 else 0:21:48.530,0:21:51.650 yeah i think the real roller skates is also also 0:21:52.340,0:21:56.510 as long as you don't say in lines I think they're fine because they're not 0:21:56.510,0:22:01.669 in their ad England no no and ok so the game 0:22:01.669,0:22:10.669 err on the track you you have them you have two periods of 30 minutes each . is 0:22:10.669,0:22:14.659 divided into jams which are two minutes long long 0:22:14.659,0:22:20.390 so what happens after two minutes after terminates the jam is called off and 0:22:20.390,0:22:24.260 then you switch players on the check and then 30 seconds pass and then you're 0:22:24.260,0:22:25.460 into a new jam 0:22:25.460,0:22:30.559 ok and that mainly last two minutes and then they calling off the gym and 30 0:22:30.559,0:22:35.600 seconds past you feel new people on the check so do you have you just which 0:22:35.600,0:22:38.929 people all the time because you hear it slowly breathe 0:22:38.929,0:22:42.440 it's like in hockey where you have been ok they have three teams 0:22:42.440,0:22:46.340 yeah and two teams are on the on the bank and one team is playing and then 0:22:46.340,0:22:52.429 after some time the switch is it like that and I don't know because I don't 0:22:52.429,0:22:53.690 watch hockey 0:22:53.690,0:22:58.640 no money but what I mean is like how many people are in one team and they're 0:22:58.640,0:23:05.960 14 people in each team and they're 14 people in each team and you have five 0:23:05.960,0:23:07.220 people on the track 0:23:07.220,0:23:12.110 ok from each team and then after two minutes yes all sleep 5 pretty good down 0:23:12.110,0:23:18.380 from the track and somewhat but if you have 14 people or them they're different 0:23:18.380,0:23:22.730 invitations and some my just jammers and some are just blockers and some people 0:23:22.730,0:23:25.970 are just too damn about getting so it's not like three teams and 10 0:23:25.970,0:23:30.950 ok now it's not just so if you're tired then good . and then someone else takes 0:23:30.950,0:23:34.230 place ok I see mhm and 0:23:34.230,0:23:41.910 it and so each team feels five persons on the track and four are called 0:23:41.910,0:23:48.299 blockers and one is called a jammer and the jammer is easy to spot because they 0:23:48.299,0:23:54.780 have a helmet cover with a star on and the jammer is the only wanting the team 0:23:54.780,0:23:56.070 who can score points 0:23:56.070,0:24:02.100 ok is it I you so if you are Jenna and I always a general order to switch also 0:24:02.100,0:24:04.080 during the game 0:24:04.080,0:24:11.580 oh it it depends on the team's I mean I saw a team from Denver coming over and 0:24:11.580,0:24:16.590 everyone jammed and everyone blocked ok and then you have teams that you have 0:24:16.590,0:24:18.990 you are just the jammer 0:24:18.990,0:24:22.200 ok and that's the only thing you do because you excel at that 0:24:22.200,0:24:34.380 mhm and and the jammer gets points and points are gained by passing your 0:24:34.380,0:24:35.790 opponent's hips 0:24:35.790,0:24:41.520 ok so each opponent jammer and blocker is a point 0:24:41.520,0:24:45.809 ok so when you pass the hips with your whole body 0:24:45.809,0:24:50.040 you have to wait you're here with it I was doing happy and I see and so hips 0:24:50.040,0:24:53.940 are really important to be so when you pass and then fall back again 0:24:53.940,0:24:58.799 that's still . and it still . it yes so once your hips are once you've passed 0:24:58.799,0:24:59.520 the hips 0:24:59.520,0:25:06.270 good you have the point ok cool and and the first thing that happens when the 0:25:06.270,0:25:10.770 first so all the blockers on the on the track and I called the pack 0:25:10.770,0:25:15.330 ok their pack of pockets like four for people with the blockers and one was the 0:25:15.330,0:25:15.929 drummer 0:25:15.929,0:25:19.710 yes I'm out of the park is the blockers again and the back is the blockage from 0:25:19.710,0:25:21.030 both teams 0:25:21.030,0:25:25.030 oh ok so so you have the white and 0:25:25.030,0:25:31.750 the Black team and their blockers are called the pack and it's because you 0:25:31.750,0:25:37.660 need to have a pack in order to play roller derby 0:25:38.410,0:25:46.510 ok so if all players from the White team goes to the penalty box and you only 0:25:46.510,0:25:52.390 have players from the Black team on the track but there is no pack so the Black 0:25:52.390,0:25:56.380 team cannot block my jammer because my pack 0:25:56.380,0:26:00.130 okay what type of them and I i I've never seen it happen 0:26:01.240,0:26:06.190 the but it could happen but I've never seen it happen but but but what happens 0:26:06.190,0:26:07.250 then is that 0:26:07.250,0:26:13.220 I don't know if they call I think that I don't know if they would call it off or 0:26:13.220,0:26:20.750 because you can have four blockers in the box and technically ok 0:26:20.750,0:26:24.440 No so but i don't i think that would just go on 0:26:24.440,0:26:30.380 so when when did you get in the box or her and you go to the penalty box when 0:26:30.380,0:26:32.060 you have done something illegal 0:26:32.060,0:26:39.530 so you have wait can we can we just keep talking a bit about the game and then we 0:26:39.530,0:26:43.520 can go to the power of metal and because i wasn't i wasn't really it done 0:26:44.090,0:26:49.790 and yet so what happens when the first whistle blows is that the jammers are 0:26:49.790,0:26:51.410 fighting to get leid 0:26:51.410,0:26:58.190 so and and lead jammer is assigned to the to the jammer that gets out of the 0:26:58.190,0:26:59.390 pack first 0:26:59.390,0:27:03.650 okay and why you want to become lead jammer is because then you have the 0:27:03.650,0:27:07.370 power to call up the jam before the two minutes are done 0:27:07.880,0:27:12.350 so you control the game ok so you could if you're in the lead you could just 0:27:12.350,0:27:17.870 call it often than you have 10 how do you mean no why would you call it off 0:27:17.870,0:27:24.710 you would call it off because a if a if black jammer gets out like black teams 0:27:24.710,0:27:29.900 jammer gets out first from the pack and and becomes lead jammer and then right 0:27:29.900,0:27:35.000 behind that jammer is the white jammer then black jammer can say that you know 0:27:35.000,0:27:37.010 what I'm going to take a point 0:27:37.010,0:27:43.100 mhm and then i'm going to call it off so I get one . and you get zero points are 0:27:43.100,0:27:45.800 because they haven't passed out there 0:27:45.800,0:27:51.560 ok so so it during the first passing which is called an initial pass you just 0:27:51.560,0:27:56.000 fight over the lead jammer status 0:27:56.000,0:28:00.200 ok and then after that initial pass when you pass once again then you get the 0:28:00.200,0:28:00.890 point 0:28:00.890,0:28:04.940 and this all happens in those two minutes off our with this code you Jam 0:28:04.940,0:28:05.450 Jam 0:28:05.450,0:28:07.640 ok yes mhm 0:28:07.640,0:28:18.110 and we have and legal blocking zones and illegal black exams so so and that's the 0:28:18.110,0:28:23.000 zones where you you you can legally block during the game because my job as 0:28:23.000,0:28:26.960 a blocker is to help the my jammer get through the pack 0:28:26.960,0:28:31.640 ok but also obtained the other jammer in the pack 0:28:31.640,0:28:35.240 ok because i want my Gemma to get up first get lead and then score as many 0:28:35.240,0:28:36.380 points as possible 0:28:36.380,0:28:41.660 so one gentle if one day i could if you get the other jmo stopped than your 0:28:41.660,0:28:45.980 general could go like three times and we would score a lot of points and gathered 0:28:45.980,0:28:54.140 ok mhm and so so the it's illegal to block someone on their back 0:28:54.140,0:29:00.230 ok and i would say that's a safety issue yeah so and then Italy get to trip 0:29:00.230,0:29:02.870 someone with their skates 0:29:02.870,0:29:07.940 it's illegal to push someone with your hands you're not allowed to use your 0:29:07.940,0:29:08.630 hands 0:29:08.630,0:29:15.110 ok you cannot push someone out with your elbow but you can use your upper body 0:29:15.110,0:29:19.010 and I mean I can block someone with my back 0:29:19.010,0:29:23.120 that's fine oh god no one can come crashing in my back 0:29:23.120,0:29:28.040 ok and and if I fall then they will get a penalty for it and they will go to the 0:29:28.040,0:29:29.180 penalty box 0:29:29.180,0:29:34.100 I actually know for how long for the whole German for the game 0:29:34.100,0:29:37.160 yeah it's 30 seconds shoot 0:29:37.160,0:29:45.230 and so and those start when you hear the referee whistles here your number 0:29:45.830,0:29:50.300 you go to the penalty box and when you sit your ass down on the box then the 0:29:50.300,0:29:55.790 clock starts okay and and if the jam is called and you're still in the penalty 0:29:55.790,0:29:56.300 box 0:29:56.300,0:30:00.680 then they will stop the clock in the penalty box I said okay and the clock 0:30:00.680,0:30:04.670 will start again once the next jam starts 0:30:04.670,0:30:10.630 ok so so the clocks in the penalty box only run while shooting there 0:30:10.630,0:30:17.080 the jam is an armed assault ok mhm ok so we have points we 0:30:17.890,0:30:28.000 what did we forget still about the game and when you may be hitting which is it 0:30:28.000,0:30:32.860 is like it's a full contact sport and hitting with your body and doing body 0:30:32.860,0:30:38.230 checks is legal as long as you do it on a little target zones so it 0:30:38.230,0:30:45.400 we use our hips a lot like you use your hips to keep someone behind you or to 0:30:45.400,0:30:52.180 shop someone off the track so that they are out of bounds and if you watch derby 0:30:52.180,0:30:55.570 you will see that sometimes but what people do 0:30:55.570,0:30:59.770 what block is that they take out the jammer and then they do what we call 0:30:59.770,0:31:07.360 bridging so they they fall back within three 0:31:07.960,0:31:12.490 what is it three meters from each other 0:31:12.490,0:31:16.240 okay because that's how far away you are allowed to block 0:31:16.240,0:31:17.480 ok 0:31:17.480,0:31:20.750 from your teammates ok 0:31:20.750,0:31:27.169 yes so you have it that and what you want to why the jammers fall back then 0:31:27.169,0:31:32.929 is because when or blockers and when you get pushed out of bounds 0:31:33.440,0:31:38.510 you need to get in behind the person that was in front of you either that is 0:31:38.510,0:31:42.380 the one who pushed you out or someone in front of them going back 0:31:43.720,0:31:47.530 because you can never change your relative position to the better 0:31:47.530,0:31:51.220 ok yeah anything yes 0:31:51.220,0:31:56.980 so but then the three meters rule is just 22 still have a pact which is 0:31:56.980,0:32:00.100 together and also so not everybody is like 0:32:00.100,0:32:05.770 yes it's so you you cannot change the jammer around the whole check 0:32:05.770,0:32:11.140 ok because some at some point the need to get out and be able to get through 0:32:11.140,0:32:14.049 and yeah but it 0:32:14.049,0:32:18.520 are you I going down the track quite fast or is the general fast or is it 0:32:18.520,0:32:24.159 slow or home and it depends on how the pack moves and and what level they're on 0:32:25.539,0:32:30.369 I mean they had the higher level means that the higher the higher the level of 0:32:30.369,0:32:32.160 derby 0:32:32.160,0:32:36.390 and you can see that the packs her are more in control of the speed 0:32:37.050,0:32:42.750 so sometimes the speed up girl like always being in front of the jammer 0:32:42.750,0:32:47.040 because they don't want to lose points or anything and sometimes they're like 0:32:47.040,0:32:53.340 really have if you have the jammers in the pack and both teams and have a 0:32:53.340,0:32:55.110 jammer in the wall 0:32:55.110,0:32:59.040 you know and they're really plow stopping you can see that 0:32:59.040,0:33:03.690 oh my god they're not moving like they've been like pushing for one minute 0:33:03.690,0:33:07.230 and they've just moved what 10 meters like nothing haha 0:33:07.830,0:33:13.290 and that's okay the bank's no roof nope . okay no the only rule is you you're 0:33:13.290,0:33:19.170 not allowed to stop block so I i need to move my feet the whole time while some 0:33:19.170,0:33:21.990 blocking because otherwise i get a stop block 0:33:21.990,0:33:26.220 ok and you can't go back yes or is it to load 0:33:26.220,0:33:31.380 yeah I can't push someone backwards because that's a clockwise block because 0:33:31.380,0:33:33.000 dab it is played 0:33:33.000,0:33:40.170 counterclockwise and so I can't I can't push someone backwards on the like 0:33:40.170,0:33:43.230 clockwise on the track because that's a penalty 0:33:43.230,0:33:48.900 it's the wrong way no okay and career 0:33:48.900,0:33:54.270 so the timeouts 0:33:55.200,0:34:07.140 it was and every every team has and I think my boyfriend might kill me for not 0:34:07.140,0:34:08.130 knowing this 0:34:08.130,0:34:20.760 apparently he's a referee and each team has one of we should review / a half 0:34:20.760,0:34:29.730 perhaps perhaps it's cool have you kept and and during an official review the 0:34:29.730,0:34:35.640 team can go into the middle to the head referee and say that you know what I saw 0:34:35.640,0:34:37.379 something 0:34:37.379,0:34:42.599 you didn't call something on someone I want them to get this penalty because 0:34:42.599,0:34:48.359 they did this and that and then the officials will talk about it and then 0:34:48.359,0:34:51.419 they will say that you know what you're right 0:34:51.419,0:34:56.069 someone saw it they weren't really comfortable to take the call but we 0:34:56.069,0:34:57.299 think you're right 0:34:57.299,0:35:00.299 or you know what we didn't see it no call will stand 0:35:00.900,0:35:06.869 go back to your bench and that is and yep 0:35:06.869,0:35:11.490 so that's how you use your official review ok and every team has won / / 0:35:11.490,0:35:18.779 half and then each team has three timeouts during a whole game 0:35:19.410,0:35:28.650 they can take but wait one time out / half and three times so 31 official time 0:35:28.650,0:35:32.640 on which is all the way you can like say to the place that I where were you need 0:35:32.640,0:35:37.950 to register and then you have 33 team time are you doing Jake and those and 0:35:37.950,0:35:41.069 those team time as I think there are like one minute long 0:35:41.069,0:35:45.900 mhm I think I don't I really need to freshen up on the rules 0:35:46.440,0:35:49.799 this is really bad how we do that 0:35:49.799,0:35:57.029 how many recruits other let's see I think there are seven referees on skates 0:35:57.029,0:36:01.349 ok like who's standing in the center and we 0:36:01.349,0:36:04.470 you have a2 jammer furries 0:36:04.470,0:36:08.130 so each for each for each and one for each jammer 0:36:08.640,0:36:14.670 and then you have one pack referee known to pack referees in the middle one in 0:36:14.670,0:36:20.369 front pack and one that just my particular circuit yet so therefore in 0:36:20.369,0:36:24.599 the me anything on the inside and then you have three outside pack referees 0:36:24.599,0:36:32.339 that are also positioned like one in front pack like they're called like 0:36:32.339,0:36:36.510 outer pack referee and then you have one in the front one with the pack isn't one 0:36:36.510,0:36:39.180 in the back so they're quite many rivers 0:36:39.180,0:36:44.519 yes and then difficult to see what's happening I just I mean I i have tried 0:36:44.519,0:36:50.400 and and when when you ask people like well would you say that this is a 0:36:50.400,0:36:55.799 penalty and they would select yeah but it depends on how you define impact 0:36:55.799,0:37:02.760 so sometimes yeah you know you can get calls for something that you saying like 0:37:02.760,0:37:06.750 yeah but he didn't have an impact but the referee that said that it was an 0:37:06.750,0:37:08.849 impact so you just do with your child 0:37:08.849,0:37:17.490 ok and then but the this Gator referees they're just giving out the penalties 0:37:17.490,0:37:20.940 mhm then you have people who 0:37:20.940,0:37:27.269 and don't wear skates and do a crazy amount of work in order for us to be 0:37:27.269,0:37:28.380 able to play a game 0:37:28.380,0:37:33.569 ok so you have on the inside and infield of the check 0:37:34.200,0:37:38.460 you have one Jam timer that times the clock 0:37:38.460,0:37:44.849 the gem that has the . clock and the jam clock so you know that girl everything 0:37:44.849,0:37:52.259 run smoothly and then you have a penalty board like the white board where you 0:37:52.259,0:38:01.589 have a person that writes down all the penalties that are given to ok and 0030 0:38:01.589,0:38:05.910 gotta back block then i'm going to put a be there because that was their first 0:38:05.910,0:38:11.759 penalty and so that the teams can see how many penalties there are per person 0:38:11.759,0:38:14.430 you are allowed to have seven penalties in the game 0:38:14.430,0:38:15.569 ok on your 7pm 0:38:15.569,0:38:21.420 so you're falling out and a penalty is when you when you go out for the you go 0:38:21.420,0:38:26.880 to the Barker the power box and and in order for that person to write down 0:38:26.880,0:38:31.259 stuff on the whiteboard you need to have someone who are telling them what to 0:38:31.259,0:38:40.799 write on the whiteboard so you have a penalty tracker and then you have a to 0:38:40.799,0:38:46.079 line up trackers that are riding down on the sheets 0:38:46.079,0:38:52.650 what players I lining up each jam on the track 0:38:52.650,0:38:57.869 so one for each team so you're writing up the jammer and blockers and and then 0:38:57.869,0:39:04.739 your and and then you have the scorekeepers who are working with the 0:39:04.739,0:39:08.190 jammer Freese who are writing down 0:39:08.190,0:39:13.349 how many points each amer gets with her pass if they get 0 1 2 3 0:39:14.039,0:39:17.579 whatever you know and then they are telling the scoreboard operator 0:39:18.449,0:39:21.449 what to put on the scoreboard ok ok 0:39:21.959,0:39:25.949 and then you have the penalty box manager that manages the box 0:39:25.949,0:39:32.770 the penalty box and usually the penalty box manager has control over and 0:39:32.770,0:39:37.690 the jammers but not control over but they they see to it that when generous 0:39:37.690,0:39:45.580 it down they run their clocks and then they have one and a penalty box and 0:39:45.580,0:39:47.800 tracker i think they're called 0:39:47.800,0:39:53.350 oh my god you guys are gonna take okay and so each for wanting 0:39:53.350,0:39:58.870 ok that are dragging let like they're clocking the the joy of the blockers and 0:39:58.870,0:40:03.070 and I think those are it 0:40:03.070,0:40:07.540 mhm so that they're there are a lot of a bunch of people and then you have track 0:40:07.540,0:40:12.880 ninjas who are you know their fries get around or you're going out of bounds 0:40:12.880,0:40:17.290 because you have that you're taping the track 0:40:17.290,0:40:21.100 there is a rope on the track so that the player can sense when they're out of 0:40:21.100,0:40:28.510 bombs and sometimes that tape just Falls or it is bro works is fixed and someone 0:40:28.510,0:40:32.080 fix it and then the referees can say that you know what that means fixing and 0:40:32.080,0:40:34.510 the technician says I'm here i have a lot of play 0:40:34.510,0:40:39.280 let me fix this so that there are a lot of people doing a lot amount of work in 0:40:39.280,0:40:44.800 order for us to play and we should all be very thankful for it goes through you 0:40:44.800,0:40:50.410 don't pay them is no it's a no they don't get paid and afterwards there's a 0:40:50.410,0:40:54.640 lot of months of work because after each game there is a stats book that each 0:40:54.640,0:41:02.080 that the teams get and where you can like every sheet of paper that any non 0:41:02.080,0:41:04.960 skating official has gets into this that book 0:41:04.960,0:41:12.100 this excel document and then you can just see started this that's ok and how 0:41:12.100,0:41:17.620 they online afterwards somewhere or is it like then you get them on email 0:41:18.220,0:41:20.980 don't like and they're not 0:41:20.980,0:41:26.410 and public ok and i have never seen a team making their stats public 0:41:26.920,0:41:34.600 I swear ok cool so what what kind of people are playing and her like those 0:41:34.600,0:41:36.940 people who are you mentioned to right now 0:41:36.940,0:41:44.320 I you're the only one who I know are you sure i'm the only one you know I don't 0:41:44.320,0:41:51.250 want to go and check all your friends are failing but so is it like basically 0:41:51.250,0:41:58.359 everyone or is it some kind of special special people 0:42:00.010,0:42:03.070 you need to be somewhat special to do roller derby 0:42:04.090,0:42:14.170 it's it's very physical but it's also very mental sport because you you need 0:42:14.170,0:42:20.410 to be strong in order to put yourself through it 0:42:20.410,0:42:25.210 it's hard mhm you know you get your you are going to get hit 0:42:25.210,0:42:28.420 no you know that the moment you step on the track 0:42:28.420,0:42:33.880 you might break a leg mm you know it you know it happens it doesn't it happens 0:42:33.880,0:42:40.300 more at practices rather than it does on and on games on games you can usually 0:42:40.300,0:42:47.050 will I said you can get a concussion or you can like sprained an ankle or get 0:42:47.050,0:42:50.370 really get hit in the face really hard and 0:42:50.370,0:42:55.620 but if I've never seen anyone break anything 0:42:56.370,0:43:00.210 and that usually happens during practices because then you're like more 0:43:00.210,0:43:04.500 laid back and you certainly do some stupid move and you like to keep them 0:43:04.500,0:43:06.060 all wrong 0:43:06.060,0:43:09.060 you know it it's like stupid 0:43:09.060,0:43:12.330 ok but but you know it it can happen to anyone 0:43:12.330,0:43:17.250 yeah so i can fall off down the stairs that doesn't happen but it doesn't 0:43:17.250,0:43:17.790 matter 0:43:17.790,0:43:24.840 so I but i would say that people who are doing this are 0:43:24.840,0:43:29.910 it's also an underground sport with a feminist accrue tits 0:43:29.910,0:43:42.930 ok so so a lot of people doing this are looking for a forum and for a place to 0:43:42.930,0:43:46.890 to be secure and be safe okay 0:43:46.890,0:43:49.890 and roller derby can surely provide that 0:43:50.430,0:43:58.020 and because we are mostly and non-male people 0:43:58.020,0:44:04.200 ok who do roller derby yeah i mean in Sweden they're like two men's teams and 0:44:04.200,0:44:09.600 how many women storms and just how would say like 30 32 0:44:09.600,0:44:13.020 ok so you know it's it's the equivalent is not 0:44:13.020,0:44:17.070 I I don't fear that men are going to take over the derby at the store 0:44:17.580,0:44:26.520 I don't have that vehicle and as long as we can get the Junior League growing and 0:44:26.520,0:44:30.010 getting in younger people and 0:44:30.010,0:44:35.110 and keeping it alive so what ages are playing from - 0:44:36.100,0:44:39.670 and I know there are i mean in there 0:44:40.930,0:44:46.330 there are many near leagues in their junior leagues and then you have adult 0:44:46.330,0:44:52.960 leagues and usually the mirror and generally they are like under leagues 0:44:52.960,0:44:57.160 from the bigger leagues like that i don't think so . in crime city rollers 0:44:57.160,0:44:58.030 from honor 0:44:58.030,0:45:03.820 they have the candy Snatchers which is the general lee and i think 0:45:03.820,0:45:10.510 and herein I don't really know what the junior league for that sense case called 0:45:10.510,0:45:15.670 but but I mean there they did they have 0:45:16.180,0:45:21.220 I think their youngest one was four or five and the oldest is 16 0:45:21.220,0:45:25.030 mhm so it rages and and they're there 0:45:25.030,0:45:33.100 it's it's like a big gap between girl there how old you are and but in in my 0:45:33.100,0:45:39.340 league we don't accept people under 18 grow and and I mean juniors are also 0:45:39.340,0:45:41.200 allowed to play derby 0:45:41.200,0:45:46.210 I think they're set of rules is a bit different because they're still juniors 0:45:46.210,0:45:49.240 you know i would say that it's the same thing with hockey 0:45:49.240,0:45:57.610 thank you ok is it something different and and 144 for the normal league 0:45:58.120,0:46:04.240 what what is the upper HH basically and I think in our team 0:46:04.870,0:46:12.490 the oldest one would be like what 40 42 . 42 already something like that will 0:46:12.490,0:46:13.990 bring the green crystal 0:46:13.990,0:46:17.590 so you don't need to stop when you get to 30 or anything 0:46:17.590,0:46:21.880 no no no you stop when you want to when you start when you want to 0:46:23.069,0:46:27.809 and I mean it's that that's what's so great about this sport is that no one is 0:46:27.809,0:46:31.349 going to look at you and say that you know what you don't have the body for it 0:46:31.349,0:46:37.079 or you don't have the age for this or you don't have the mental strength to do 0:46:37.079,0:46:37.619 it 0:46:37.619,0:46:44.880 you can order the body strength to do it because you grow and you in derby you 0:46:44.880,0:46:46.829 need all the bodies you can get 0:46:46.829,0:46:50.940 I mean we went to a hand in there belgium 0:46:50.940,0:46:54.569 yeah and we played against birmingham bloodstains 0:46:54.569,0:47:00.299 yeah and they had these two blockers on the track that were massive 0:47:00.299,0:47:03.989 but they could skate this beautiful despite being 0:47:03.989,0:47:08.369 I don't know now I'm I'm not that tall but i would say they were like what 180 0:47:08.369,0:47:15.119 185 tall and then they were massive know and you know you you couldn't move them 0:47:15.119,0:47:21.809 and they were like yeah okay I I'm just standing here taking like one and a half 0:47:21.809,0:47:26.190 lane on the track and you can just try to pass me but i'm just going to stand 0:47:26.190,0:47:31.109 here because I do that and you know it was muscle beneath its not that you know 0:47:31.109,0:47:32.160 you see someone 0:47:32.160,0:47:38.099 often he you don't be like changes your your ideas and your perceptions of 0:47:38.099,0:47:44.670 people you're like yeah you may be big but you're still hardcore and and and 0:47:44.670,0:47:47.069 that doesn't matter so you don't have to be 0:47:47.069,0:47:51.719 I remember when I did that I did gymnastics when I was a kid and I know 0:47:51.719,0:47:55.650 my teacher gymnastics teacher such my mom that Karen and it needs to lose 0:47:55.650,0:47:56.400 weight

that that thing and and it's so refreshing 0:48:07.890,0:48:10.140 being in a community that it 0:48:10.140,0:48:15.150 nobody cares ok as long as you stand on skates 0:48:15.150,0:48:22.499 you work hard on your skating skills you can go to the best team in the word in 0:48:22.499,0:48:24.479 the world you can be short 0:48:24.479,0:48:25.829 you can be tall 0:48:25.829,0:48:30.809 it's it's they

world 0:51:41.380,0:51:45.280 okay thank you it was kind of a deal 0:51:45.840,0:51:53.040 yeah it was I like didn't feel quite comfortable and then I was out one night 0:51:53.040,0:51:57.090 and my friend under she was like yeah what did you what did you learn this 0:51:57.090,0:52:02.760 week so I showed him some of our moves and is and he's like yeah okay let me 0:52:02.760,0:52:08.640 try and block you girls like okay and like yeah but you you you're not moving 0:52:08.640,0:52:13.200 okay you're not doing it properly yeah but I'm a big man i will i should be 0:52:13.200,0:52:17.220 able to look at you you're like a wall or your name should be tomorrow were 0:52:17.220,0:52:21.000 like okay okay we can I can work with that 0:52:21.000,0:52:25.530 and then someone said you know what you're gonna have to live up to that 0:52:25.530,0:52:30.780 name and then I look like I'm gonna have to live up to that name 0:52:31.500,0:52:35.190 I'm gonna have to train and then I had to Train 0:52:35.190,0:52:37.190 yes and 0:52:37.190,0:52:44.030 and then I played against team and this februari and the photographer took a 0:52:44.030,0:52:50.300 picture of me and on the on the shard on facebook he said that he wrote i will 0:52:50.300,0:52:53.510 never question why she has that name 0:52:53.510,0:52:58.040 I mean I said that mission accomplished now i can get the rest of my life 0:52:58.040,0:53:07.490 the most how do you help do train or basically is it once a week we trained 0:53:07.490,0:53:16.609 on like this semester we had training on Tuesdays Thursdays and Sundays and our 0:53:16.609,0:53:19.849 training sessions are about two two and a half hours maybe 0:53:19.849,0:53:22.849 ok and depending on what day it is 0:53:23.690,0:53:31.700 and then I i tried to squeezing one or two sessions a week off the track 0:53:32.240,0:53:43.190 like usually and doing some squats with the memory with weights and like lifting 0:53:43.190,0:53:48.200 and I should be running but I don't want to 0:53:48.200,0:53:55.099 and yet so for me it's it's a since is in some a blocker I really need the 0:53:55.099,0:54:01.190 muscle and I've been training my back a lot because our bags and knees the they 0:54:01.190,0:54:10.849 take the most hitting like when I fall I mean I way I wait put 77 kilos and and 0:54:10.849,0:54:15.680 you fall on that link with force if it's just 0:54:15.680,0:54:19.670 and I don't remember the physics right but it's more than seven 7 kills that 0:54:19.670,0:54:21.140 falling on means 0:54:21.140,0:54:22.400 yeah 0:54:22.400,0:54:25.430 and and it's all the hot on the hard concrete 0:54:25.430,0:54:29.809 so yeah and sometimes you have another player on you oh so so you 0:54:30.589,0:54:38.569 you really need to so every every time I am off skates going to the gym or doing 0:54:38.569,0:54:44.900 you'll get home or whatever I feel like I really need to do this now is to 0:54:44.900,0:54:53.150 prevent injuries so so it's and it's not that I don't have any injuries and mean 0:54:53.150,0:54:55.010 we get those small 0:54:55.010,0:55:01.819 no injures all the time but but but it's important you know so and and and I'm 0:55:01.819,0:55:05.869 every time I am i meeting you skater 0:55:05.869,0:55:10.730 I'm like yeah what do you train of skate like I don't like I didn't either but 0:55:10.730,0:55:13.880 you should because if you do it now it will help you later 0:55:13.880,0:55:20.240 no but it's true so what do you like most about Ronald a bit and I like the 0:55:20.240,0:55:24.349 heat like of the game . generally rush that you get 0:55:25.850,0:55:33.530 I'm I'm not that interested and in the in the all-around things that involve 0:55:33.530,0:55:39.380 roller derby I'm just interested about the sport ticket and so for me it's it's 0:55:39.380,0:55:43.580 more than I want to do good games 0:55:43.580,0:55:46.730 I want to play hard I want to train hard 0:55:46.730,0:55:51.560 this is like the first time I've ever been in a team sport 0:55:51.560,0:55:56.960 yeah and that's very new and I think that's new for many of the people that 0:55:56.960,0:56:01.370 are involved in roller derby they have not done any other sport before they are 0:56:01.370,0:56:06.170 not that many sports were with like team sports for women 0:56:06.170,0:56:13.370 some of the soccer okay but otherwise soccer handball you have volleyball and 0:56:13.370,0:56:21.080 you would have hockey and inline hockey I mean that there are but but in its 0:56:21.080,0:56:25.040 it's like I don't I don't know it 0:56:25.040,0:56:28.430 it's when when I would beach volleyball you're like yeah ok but you have naked 0:56:28.430,0:56:38.480 fine and and it doesn't matter because it you know it shouldn't matter 0:56:38.480,0:56:45.530 yeah but somehow it does - and roller derby has become more athletic 0:56:45.530,0:56:50.030 because now most of the two days are gone or the fish nets are gone 0:56:50.030,0:56:52.820 people are really wearing 0:56:52.820,0:57:01.970 and more for sportswear the the shirts that we have our bout key about fit is 0:57:01.970,0:57:05.960 like in a material that can breathe and is not only caught on 0:57:05.960,0:57:12.260 no shirt that we kind of sprayed are nae mam and so all in all roller derby is 0:57:12.260,0:57:15.320 growing and I mean 0:57:15.950,0:57:19.790 and when i started everyone would put makeup on and now that's gone 0:57:20.390,0:57:26.540 and maybe it is because now it's more easy to play more games are them before 0:57:26.540,0:57:30.170 so before it would be more of a spectacle but now when you can play like 0:57:30.170,0:57:32.570 seven games per semester 0:57:32.570,0:57:39.260 it's not that fun to do that you're here and I'm a semester is how long 0:57:39.260,0:57:50.300 and in the fall are our fault semester is August to December and then now we 0:57:50.300,0:57:56.240 have january to july due to the Swedish championships that are during a sm think 0:57:56.240,0:58:02.920 i'm at school for bed so and that's usually in the first or second 0:58:02.920,0:58:10.599 weekend in july so far this semester is always a bit longer 0:58:11.109,0:58:16.240 yeah ahead and you can feel it because many you know you you go on semester on 0:58:16.240,0:58:20.770 vacation from up from your arm from your work but then you still have to the 0:58:20.770,0:58:24.640 Derby so you're not going on vacation and then you go to city championships 0:58:24.640,0:58:27.819 and then you have one week left of the application that you go back to work at 0:58:27.819,0:58:35.020 all i care i had three weeks but now I i actually just had one so that the reason 0:58:35.020,0:58:36.609 why you want for it soon 0:58:36.609,0:58:42.790 yeah I I like it but the offseason when you get like 11 month where you're not 0:58:42.790,0:58:50.200 training and you don't you don't have to be a ton yet study on at seven and then 0:58:50.200,0:58:54.579 come and then training is done that aight attend and then your home at 0:58:54.579,0:59:02.410 eleven and then you're going to shower and eat and your bed at 12 and you may 0:59:02.410,0:59:05.559 or may not fall asleep then 0:59:05.559,0:59:08.589 but you still have to get up in the morning to get to work i mean it's it's 0:59:08.589,0:59:10.660 a lot of hardship on 0:59:10.660,0:59:14.020 that's why I mean that it's hard on the body but it's also hard mentally because 0:59:14.020,0:59:18.849 you need to get your sleep well it's brick house because it rains the months 0:59:18.849,0:59:21.670 and so yeah sure 0:59:21.670,0:59:30.190 you talked a little bit about - what changed like this colorful outfits and 0:59:30.190,0:59:34.720 so on could you just tell us how it was or what 0:59:34.720,0:59:39.849 because that's that what what I've seen when I researched it a bit and that was 0:59:39.849,0:59:41.859 the most obvious thing 0:59:41.859,0:59:48.160 so like to make up the colors the names and stuff like this and because it 0:59:48.160,0:59:50.980 that's quite different to two other sports 0:59:50.980,0:59:57.640 so and we still have the names although you you will still maybe you will see 0:59:57.640,1:00:01.089 some of the players changing their Dobie names to their 1:00:02.270,1:00:13.880 the original like names to the real and the real name forget and and but I i 1:00:13.880,1:00:16.160 like that we have are several names 1:00:16.160,1:00:21.230 yeah I think it gives us an edge and you can go into your alter ego and just kick 1:00:21.230,1:00:26.360 ass on the track and then come home and just cuddle with your bunnies and be 1:00:26.360,1:00:27.260 happy 1:00:27.260,1:00:36.440 ok but I am i remember when i started i else i had like colorful and it pants on 1:00:36.440,1:00:41.690 and like licorice shorts and and it was 1:00:41.690,1:00:47.060 yeah and and people had that but now it's just I i think since you when you 1:00:47.060,1:00:49.130 start seeing it more as training 1:00:49.130,1:00:55.280 mmm I'm glad then resent it gets more serious and and i don't i don't feel 1:00:55.280,1:00:59.330 like if you come to training in fishnets or if you're about 1:00:59.330,1:01:03.080 or if you're like playing a game efficient that that's not necessarily 1:01:03.080,1:01:04.130 bad 1:01:04.130,1:01:08.540 I think that's kind of cool that people are still doing it and people have the 1:01:08.540,1:01:12.980 and the energy to still put makeup on their faces 1:01:12.980,1:01:19.490 no I can't because I sweat so much that it just runs off and it just looks like 1:01:19.490,1:01:25.340 i have cried my eyes are and it looks horrible and you're really not ever 1:01:25.340,1:01:28.880 looking good in your dirty pictures whatsoever so I'm going to be like 1:01:28.880,1:01:31.730 really black panther eyes is not helping 1:01:31.730,1:01:44.000 perfect and so so yeah so it's it's not a butt but I mean I I i can say i may 1:01:44.000,1:01:46.880 sit because I wasn't a part of it 1:01:46.880,1:01:53.420 when that was because I can mean later and he took made a year but before I can 1:01:53.420,1:01:59.990 do I could have had minimum skills with it is and you have your rookie training 1:01:59.990,1:02:02.780 period where you learn how to skate 1:02:02.780,1:02:05.570 so you can't just say i'm going to start roller derby in the set of your on the 1:02:05.570,1:02:06.590 track doing stuff 1:02:06.590,1:02:12.770 ok because you're we have like an eight to 12 week program where you learn how 1:02:12.770,1:02:18.260 to do basic skating skating skills soccer and then once or twice 1:02:19.190,1:02:23.569 the semester we say that welcome to do the minimum skills test 1:02:23.569,1:02:30.980 ok and the minimum skills test as a test that's provided by wftda which is the 1:02:30.980,1:02:36.349 woman's flat track derby business drivers Association which is based in 1:02:36.349,1:02:42.170 the US and and they make the rules of flat track roller derby and those are 1:02:42.170,1:02:47.930 the rules that we play by and and they say that you know what all skaters 1:02:47.930,1:02:52.460 should in order to play therapy you need to have passed your management skills 1:02:52.460,1:02:54.740 and you need to have passed the rules test 1:02:54.740,1:02:58.819 ok which is so theoretically theoretical test yep 1:02:59.510,1:03:07.579 so you pass your minimum skills and then you get to Train derby before that you 1:03:07.579,1:03:14.000 train to plow stop Tootie stop to doing like turnovers and get to know your 1:03:14.000,1:03:19.250 skates and get to feel the wheels under your feed and get control of that 1:03:19.250,1:03:22.400 because we need to be 1:03:22.400,1:03:25.790 it's it's really it's it's unsafe as it is 1:03:25.790,1:03:30.380 yeah you can never say that oh we place a derby because you have wheels under 1:03:30.380,1:03:31.339 your feet 1:03:31.339,1:03:36.470 that's not normal and happy and you are hitting each other which is not good and 1:03:36.470,1:03:39.170 you who you know and and stuff happens 1:03:39.170,1:03:43.099 so you really need to know that when you're playing you're playing with 1:03:43.099,1:03:48.290 people who have actually mastered some kind of skills level but that's for the 1:03:48.290,1:03:52.970 games through trade so it shouldn't beginner doing together with the other 1:03:52.970,1:03:56.000 people or all of the special training 1:03:56.000,1:03:59.839 it depends sometimes we have the training together we're not one not 1:03:59.839,1:04:07.099 after I think it's after the 45 first weeks then we mix it up like once a week 1:04:07.099,1:04:10.970 for an hour but then it's also more skills 1:04:10.970,1:04:16.069 ok is there a trainer or how does it work if we have a training committee and 1:04:16.069,1:04:20.300 I think this is how it works in most derby league like you have a changing 1:04:20.300,1:04:22.280 committee and 1:04:22.280,1:04:28.220 they trained the league and then the RB team has their captains who are changing 1:04:28.220,1:04:32.750 the B team and then the a team has their captains that are changing the 18 18 and 1:04:32.750,1:04:34.520 beaten what does that mean 1:04:34.520,1:04:46.010 the a the the 18 is like the the team were that that plays our games and the B 1:04:46.010,1:04:52.400 team plays games - but when when we play like double today sanctioned games we 1:04:52.400,1:04:56.900 are sending our 18 like a team is the best players that we have and like their 1:04:56.900,1:04:57.590 league 1:04:57.590,1:05:01.550 however if free 14 15 best players yeah okay 1:05:01.550,1:05:07.070 and the B team is also 15 players or is it yeah yeah i think that I i don't know 1:05:07.070,1:05:10.340 how many there now but I think they're like 14 15 people playing in the B team 1:05:10.340,1:05:17.600 and they and why you want to have a B team and let them play is because then 1:05:17.600,1:05:23.810 they will evolve as players and then someday they will come up to a team and 1:05:23.810,1:05:24.980 move up okay yeah 1:05:24.980,1:05:28.100 interesting ok very cool 1:05:28.100,1:05:34.820 so if someone would like to start how do how do you start way to go 1:05:34.820,1:05:41.630 what how do you do it ok and i would say depending on where you live you click 1:05:41.630,1:05:44.630 like if you live in there in Stockholm 1:05:44.630,1:05:46.609 you can go to google and you say 1:05:46.609,1:05:50.420 roller derby in stockholm and then you have two leagues you can go 200 and 1:05:50.420,1:05:56.089 number we have three depending on what you want and what I was a google what's 1:05:56.089,1:05:59.359 near you because you never know 1:05:59.359,1:06:04.009 and if there is not a derby league near you start one 1:06:04.759,1:06:09.799 uh-huh I i know that they have tried several times to start up a derby league 1:06:09.799,1:06:17.569 in your shopping and I think they want to start one in far loom and i think 1:06:17.569,1:06:22.640 yeah has one but you know you you start with the group of people like her number 1:06:22.640,1:06:28.910 already what were they like five people on skates and then now we have gone 206 1:06:28.910,1:06:36.259 it sucks it really started with what 14 skaters and I'm 16 and now they're also 1:06:36.259,1:06:39.920 bigger so you know get you bend it up 1:06:39.920,1:06:47.059 absolutely cool cool so I think we are on the end of my list of lists and we 1:06:47.059,1:06:48.499 forget something 1:06:48.499,1:06:51.619 hey interesting sure 1:06:51.619,1:06:59.480 haha i could i get up derby all the time but
