Live from Vegas: the wannabes just finished watching Team USA annihilate Team Australia 171 to 15.

As you can see in the photo above, skating backwards and blocking with the stomach is an increasingly popular method of slowing an opponent down.

 
Earlier we did an aggressive blocking class and practiced the skill ourselves.
 
In actual fact, we were introduced to this style of attack before RollerCon even began at a quaint establishment called Dick’s Last Resort.
