Hey Helsinki skaters! September might have been a quieter month on the Let’s Roll app, with fewer new spots and sessions logged, but don’t hang up your skates just yet! The city is buzzing with an incredible opportunity for anyone who’s ever wanted to give roller derby a try. This is your moment to dive into one of the most exciting communities on eight wheels.
The legendary Kallio Rolling Rainbow is running a beginners’ course, and it’s the perfect entry point for aspiring derby stars. Whether you’re a total newbie or just derby-curious, this is an amazing chance to learn the ropes from one of Helsinki’s best leagues. Let’s get more skaters out there and make October a month full of logged sessions and new discoveries!
