Congrats Punchi! That is awesome! I am proud of you lady! I know (from experience) how hard making it past those benchmarks can be. It takes a lot of hard work and even more dedication. Most people think "Big deal...you skate in a circle" but it is so much more than that. Anyone who doesn't know what the qualifications are I suggest you have a little read...

There is also a written test about the rules, which are vast and extremely detailed.

The 25 laps in 5 minutes is what nearly killed me :P

Sooo....now that it is official, what is your derby name?

This is where I damn myself by revealing how useful my figure skating was for ice hockey, not to mention drill practise on the parade ground.

...(I was fastest to turn the wrong way EVERY time) :lol:

Still thinking about a name. We don't get to have one registered until we are bout ready and drafted to a team. Any ideas? I REALLY loved Double Tap, but sadly, it's already taken. :cry: I'm looking for something zombie or motorcycle related. Come on you creative people you!
