Storyville, United Skates: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m000kxl0 via @bbciplayer When America's last standing roller rinks are threatened with closure, a community of thousands battles in a racially charged environment to save an underground subculture - one that has remained undiscovered by the mainstream for generations, yet has given rise to some of the world's greatest musical talent.

Let's roll

The People Behind the app👋

Rune & Irka have more than 21 years of Roller skating and 23 years of software building experience between the two of them. That’s a lot of years!

If they can’t make this happen, then the world truly does not need a Roller skate app and come on, we all know it does 🌈

We all know it: Roller skating is the best sport ever. Strapping wheels on your feet for no other reason than having fun and frequently getting hurt in the process makes perfect sense once you tried it.

Share your skate journey

But sometimes, there can be challenges that stop us from getting the best skating experience. Skating alone, lacking the inspiration to learn and progress, and having a hard time locating the right skate spots can all subtract from the otherwise fantastic journey that is Roller skating.

The mission ahead 🚀

We feel that social media is making a fantastic contribution to uniting the global Roller skating community. We believe that it is possible to build a platform that extends on this. To help everyone discover and learn Roller skating in the best possible way: With friends, inspiration, and smooth asphalt all the way.

A platform dedicated to the sport we love that reflects the community's values. And we believe that 2021 is the right year to build it.

Stay tuned because we are ready to roll! 🙌

Stay in the loop
