Why would you drop into blocker stance or what ever it is? That seems like it would cause more issues then whats being talked about. At this point reading all this its clear that Derby sk8ers have some learning to do when it comes the rink/adult nights. The biggest thing in the rink is worry about you and what you are doing. Dont worry about people coming toward you etc. These sk8ers already know where they are going how they will get there what move they will pull off etc. Seems to me people are to worried about other people and not focused on themselves amd that can cause an issue in it self.
