If MLRH can make it through the season with no problems and fans in the stands, then I will believe they are back and strong. Every league that has tried to become professional has failed at one...

It is all about shifting your weight correctly and hitting the puck/surface at the right place. Suggestion would be to go to the rink during pick-up or something and practice.

Shift your balance...

TULaw,

Check your private messages, as I have some.

I am also looking for some old RHI and MLRH games, and willing to purchase or trade. Please let me know what anyone has.

I am also...

Just to comment on this. USA Hockey Inline does this for a couple reasons. One, to see if there is in-fact any great talent out there that do show up. If they are good enough Coach Brennan will...

I agree that FIRS has done a terrible job with their website, and have had a history of this. I actually had emailed the guy who organized this year's event in France, about doing their website for...

I think that a reunion is a great idea.

I did a report for a college business class a couple years back on the RHI. From what I remember RHI in 1992 was kind of a "test-run." They were testing...

I totally agree with you on this issue. Financial credibility greatly influences product creditbility in this world, as we see in a variety of industries.

I personally think that there is...

I am just curious to find out what is going to happen with MLRH and PIHA? Are they still going to be running their own leagues, until the acutual season kicks off next September?

I agree that the game is very slow moving. I actually was watching some of the old Bufflo Wings and Buffalo Stampede games, it to me it seemed like the Stampede game which was in 1994 was a lot...

Richard,

I think that some important dates in roller hockey history is the first ever FIRS World Championships, I believe in 1992.

Also, the first ever IIHF Inline Hockey World Championship in...

Team USA lost today against Sweden 7-4. More bad penalties near the end of the game by the U.S., allowed Sweden to pull away.
Sweden now plays Finland for the Gold, while Team USA plays Czech...

Ya Team USA has had a ton of penalties. Mostly minors, but during the Sweden game they had a ton of Unsportsmanlike penalties, and the only fight I am aware of is Chris Nelson fight some guy from...

I don't know if many of you are following how the USA is doing at the IIHF Inline Hockey world championships, but they are doing good. They won there grouping, edging Czech Republic in OT, beating...

I was just on the IIHF's website, looking at the 2003 Inline World Championship's pre-tournament stuff, and looking at the teams, 6 Continents are represented. I am not sure if this is the first...

Re-baking is good. You may also want to losen the laces around the toe box area. A lot of times those first couple of laces from the toe up, if they are to tight, it will cause arch problems.
...

Actually blisters are caused because the skate size is to big for your feet. I use to work at a hockey store, and the Bauer/Nike rep use to emphasize on that, and so I tried it before, and with the...

In a way I totally agree. I think that in order to get a "real" pro league going again, everyone needs to work together. I believe everytime an elite league starts up, its hurting the chances of a...

Apparently in the 1992 Summer Olympics it was a demonstration sport. At least that is what I have heard several times, yet I haven't found any proof of it.
Does anyone know if this is true? If so,...

MDE3,

You are right. I believe that when the sport gets into the Olympics, both USA Roller Sports and USA Hockey Inline will be represented. I thought it was good at the IIHF 2001 World's in...

Rebecca,

I think that maybe the IIHF is better in drawing fans because their marketing is a little better. I know that on the IIHF website they have inline links, and they post news regarding...

Your right, they do recognize the IIHF for ice hockey, but not for inline. I am not sure why they don't do it for both?

If you would like a Washington D.C. team, I would be more than interested in helping out.
I will send you an email

Currently the IOC recognizes FIRS as the organization to bring the sport to the Olympics. The Pan-American games which is recognized by the IOC uses the FIRS National Governing Bodies Team's to...

I do have to admitt the Shock puck is better than those awful Mach-1 pucks.
I think that its better than most pucks, and one thing I do like is it didn't roll on end, like a lot of them tend to...

I personally like Black. I have bad eye-sight, so black is easier to see. :)
