Welcome back, readers! You may not have had a chance to see her yet, but once you do, you won’t forget her.  She has a long derby history, skating with Cherry City Derby Girls, Rose City Rollers, Portland Men’s Roller Derby, and now us! Are you as ready as I am to penetrate the armor and get to know the inner Rose?

She is fast, she is peppy, and she is dedicated to the derby life. You probably have not had the opportunity to see Mazzu on the track yet, but she is worth keeping an eye out for. Mazzu has recently joined Hard Knox and is already leaving her mark on the track. I got the opportunity to discuss what motivates her and how her dedication for the sport has had a positive impact on her life. 

Welcome back! Spring is in the air, and that can mean only one thing: It is derby season! And this season, we have the pleasure of skating with a girl who is as hard as metal: Bleu Steele. You may have noticed her around the past few years and wondered what makes her tick. I had the opportunity to sit down with Bleu and find out just that. Here is what she had to say about her skating career and the making of Bleu Steele.
