What’s up, Detroit! While our Let’s Roll app was a bit quiet on new discoveries this past month, the Motor City’s skate scene was anything but! The energy rolling into January is absolutely electric, thanks to a December packed with incredible action. The community was buzzing with major events, proving that even when the temps drop, Detroit skaters keep the floors hot.
The month was highlighted by a fierce showdown at the Masonic Temple for the Detroit Roller Derby December Bout, and we know many of you rang in the new year on eight wheels at the NYE Adult Skate Night at Mad Track Arena. We also heard whispers about the exclusive Detroit Style Local Competition, showing the competitive spirit is alive and well. Let’s carry this momentum into the new year and get our local discoveries mapped on the app!
Who's Rolling in the Motor City?
We didn’t feature any new local skaters this month, and we want to change that! We’re looking for the skaters who inspire you—the rink wizards, the park shredders, the dance skaters lighting up the scene. Nominate a friend (or yourself!) to be featured next.
Log Your January Skate Sessions!
A new year means new skate goals! No public sessions were logged in December, so let’s get tracking for January. It’s the perfect way to see your progress, connect with skaters who frequent the same spots, and motivate yourself to lace up more often.
