Jumping

Jumping is a minimum skating skill required to begin playing in games. Skaters should be able to jump a down player. During practices Aloha City Roller skaters jumped over cones, fellow skaters, and other objects to improve jumping skills. Jumping is one of those skills many skaters first starting roller derby training can’t imagine themselves even able to do. But if the skater attends 2-3 practices each week in two months they should have the skills to jump over cones even if they never skated before. Below is a video of Aloha City Rollers skaters training to jump.
