Yvonne Z. hasn't added a story.
As you know, I’ve been skating for Prison City Derby Dames, this past 2012 season, and I have played for both the entry-level Pa-Rollee team and our travel team –the Dames.
As this season is about to begin, I recently began prepping my gear (with a simple inventory) and I was saddened to see the condition of my gear that I am about to use as protection the track! It’s seriously dwindling and ready to be retired. The expenses alone for me to skate this season start at about $1,500 and then the additional items that I use on the track add up to approximately $500+.
If your tax season serves you kindly, I ask that you consider a small donation to me, as an intermediate female roller derby skater.
I’ve added the costs of the items that I must purchase, with or without donations. Of course your contributions would be greatly appreciated and I would be willing to wear your advertisement as gratitude on the track (i.e. your business, band, your straight up sexiness etc. on my bootie shorts).
Below are the calculations that I have gathered by researching a number of online SK8 shops.
MUST HAVE ITEMS FOR PRACTICE/SCRIMAMGES/BOUTS: $330
Protective Gear & more:
187 Pro Knee Pads: $75
187 Elbow Pads: $28.99
187 Killer Pads Knee Gaskets: $34.99
Triple 8 RD Wristsavers: $29.99
EZee Ankle Booties: $15.95
Sisu 1.6-2.4 Mouth Guard: $24.00-34.99
Roller Bones Day of the Dead Wheels 92a-94a (8pk): $79.99
Bearings: ~$30-$99
ADDITIONAL NEEDS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR: $150-200
Laces, speed cream, mineral spirits, pivot inserts, cushions & nuts, toe-stops, toe savers, skate tools, socks, booty shorts, tanks, nylons, fishnets, sports bras, & head bands
PERSONAL EXPENSES: $1,500
SK8 dues, USARS dues, RollerCon MVP Pass & travel expenses, plus additional training or scrimmages
WISH LIST:
Outdoor Skates $300 +
As I have mentioned already, any contribution would be appreciated kindly. Much love to you and if you cannot support, at this time, I understand, and I appreciate your moral support on and off the track. Hope to see you on the sidelines in 2013, cause it’s wonderful seeing friends and family supporting their local roller derby! <3
Yours truly,
YVO’Lución
