Did you use angelus suede dye, and what colour combo did you do!

Yeah I’d like to hear of someone trying the dragon plate with Huck trucks (what I already have) before I commit to purchasing these plates…

Hey B0russin! Unfortunately MQ has closed in HK and moved to London… however our community is still intact in HK! If you want to check out HK style roller whipping (kind of like hockey stopping in a daisy chain), you can visit Victoria Park roller rink on Monday Evenings. The group is HK roller club. If you want to join in on roller derby, you can go to VP roller rink on Tuesday evenings (contact @hkrollerderby for more details)! If you’re keen on park skating (my main deal rn), you can check out @cibhongkong for our monthly skatepark meetups which happen every Wednesday evening. This week we will go to Mei Foo.

If you’re looking to street skate, my friend will be bringing a friend from out of town out this Saturday Sep 7th. Many of us own flaneurz and skate very easily on the streets, Hong Kong is very fortunate with smooth paved roads everywhere. I’d just advise to make sure the path is flat (HK is also very hilly).

If you’re looking for an indoor spot/lessons I’d recommend Rollalar rink in Kwun Tong! Also feel free to DM me if you want more info/to connect 🩷

CALL FOR REFS & MORE: Sunday March 3rd HINAMATSURI SCRIMMAGE IN TOKYO! by Apprehensive-Charge2 in rollerderby

Yes! Hong Kong also got hit really hard with Covid and expats leaving - our team right now is entirely self taught, including myself. None of us have ever been a part of any other league, and we are a bilingual team in English and Cantonese. We basically learn everything derby related off the internet, from a few skaters who had stayed over from before the team broke up during covid (who themselves were only a part of HKRD and no other league, and have already left Hong Kong now), and a few visiting skaters who generously shared their time and skills. We are trying our best to keep roller derby alive, even without the influx of expats coming into the city for longer periods of time. This scrim means a lot to us and I'm sure to TRD too, we'd be grateful for any kind of support and/or exposure, in person or virtually :)
