The HoBots DCRD

Tucson-bound for Dust Devil, and we found this amazing HoBot piñata at Sparky's in Hatch, NM!

Duke City Roller Derby is saddened to learn of the loss of our former skater Yoshimi. She embodied the best qualities of a HoBot: great smile, positive energy and she loved to dance on the track with her team.
Our league extends our condolences to her family and friends.

What Inspired you to start playing roller derby?
I lived in Seattle and volunteered at the Rat City bouts all the time. I got to talk to the skaters and found out that they had learned just by showing up to fresh meat practices. I had no idea there was such a thing until then. When I moved back to ABQ, it was my goal to find out how to get into derby.

What has been your favorite moment/memory/experience in playing roller derby?
I want to say I have some brilliant singular moment, however I think the feeling of improving is my favorite experience I have in derby. Its amazing to get by or block someone who has always kicked your butt.

How long have you been playing roller derby?
A smidgen over a year

What is your favorite roller derby name that you have ever heard of?
Jalapeño Business...she was my inspiration of course.

Meet Mitzi Massacre, our Hobot of the Day! Read below for more info about Mitzi, and come see her and the other Hobots take on the Disco Brawlers at the Heights Community Center TOMORROW!

What inspired you to start playing roller derby?
I had just graduated from the University of Minnesota at the end of 2004 when I read about a new sport starting up in the Twin Cities. I had a skating background but at the time it was just a way to occupy myself post-school and meet new people. It turned into an extremely satisfying hobby that has given me opportunities I never would have had otherwise

What has been your favorite moment/memory/experience in playing roller derby?
Pretty much every locker room after a hard-fought win when the team is just so collectively proud, exhausted, and buzzed and filled with overlapping conversations about favorite moments of the bout. It's best (though totally fleeting) feeling ever. I also loved getting to captain the Minnesota RollerGirls' home team, the Atomic Bombshells.

How long have you been playing roller derby?
Since the very end of 2004.

What is your favorite roller derby name?
Shenita Stretcher & Jalapeño Business.

Check out the poster girl for our upcoming roller derby bout on October 20th...its the Hobots' Kells Inferno!!! Come watch Kells Inferno and the rest of the Hobots take on the Santa Fe Disco Brawlers at the Heights Community Center!
