Bremerton Skateland has seen some awesome derby over the past months but on Saturday the rink was filled with enough energy to power Road Island. With a grudge match between the Terrormedixxx vs the Rainy City Roller Dolls and the Death Rattle Rollers hosting Dockyard Derby Dames' Wave Of Mutilation there were plenty of thrills to go around |
||
|
|
||
|
|
First up was the Terrormedixxx vs the Rainy City Roller Dolls. These two teams have had enough experience bouting each other that there are no more secrets they can keep safe. With the bout quickly turning into a brute force battle it would be up to the skaters ability to maintain their strength, endurance, and ability to skate with a hangover that would decide the day. | |
|
Time to take the express lane! |
||
|
All through the first half
the audience cringed and cheered as the two teams battered each other on
the flat track. Even with the clock winding down the skaters were
determined to get in as many jams as possible and kept up their brutal
pace. As
the clock reached the half-time mark the score was as follows: Rainy City Roller Dolls - 71 Terrormedixxx - 58 |
|
|
|
Don't point that thing at me! |

|
|
No one fooled themselves into thinking the second half of this bout was going to be any less intense as the first. They were proven right as the two teams started the period off with a bang throwing points up on the board almost as fast as they threw skaters into the bumpers. | |

As emotions ran high it
became obvious that neither team was about to hold anything back.
As the time on the clock began to wind down the action only increased.
With the difference in the score quickly becoming smaller and smaller it
was anyone's bout right up until the end. Unfortunately, the local
girls just couldn't topple the Rainy City girls though. Final Score: Rainy City Roller Dolls - 139 Terrormedixxx - 134 |

What are you looking at? |
||
|
That was only the first part of the night's entertainment though! With another bout to go the audience got to witness yet another awesome bout! |
||
|
|
||
| The second bout of the night featured Slaughter County's own Death Rattle Rollers vs the Dockyard Derby Dames' Wave Of Mutilation. | ||
|
|
The Death Rattle Rollers had a lot of new faces on the flat track and if there's one thing they always appreciate it's new blood. Even with the local girls determination the Waves Of Mutilation wasted no time running the score up though. | |
|
Jam on it! |
||
|
The girls from Tacoma
weren't about to mess around as they brought the action packed derby
from Tacoma with them. The local girls weren't about to let up
though and they found their rhythm toward the end of the half. The score at the
half: Waves Of Mutilation - 76 Death Rattle Rollers - 27 |

With a fresh 30 minutes up on the clock the roller derby warriors took the track one more time. The team from Tacoma started right back up where they left off and continued to put points up on the board consistently. The Death Rattle Rollers hadn't given up the fight though and they continued to display the 'never say die' derby attitude that Slaughter County is known for. | |
|
Shoulder checks are how derby girls show their love! |
||
|
As the second half played
out it was apparent that nothing could be done to topple the venerable
Wave Of Mutilation. Even with some impressive jams by the Death
Rattle Rollers at the end of the bout the score remained in the favor of
the Tacoma girls. When the clock reached zero the final score was
displayed: Wave Of Mutilation - 145 Death Rattle Rollers - 87 |
|
|
|
The Death Rattle Rollers hugs and spankings line! |
||
|
The Slaughter County Roller Vixens send their derby love to the Rainy City Roller Dolls and the Wave Of Mutilation who were willing to make the journey into Kitsap County to duke it out on the flat track. Of course we would like to thank all of the fans and volunteers from both sides. Were hoping to see all of you again soon! |
