DC Rollergirls Bout

Here are a few photos from the DC Rollergirls bout at the Armory on January 16.  I had spent a couple weeks photographing the rollergirls during their practices back in November so I was familiar with the league and the action on the track.  But I was not prepared for intensity of an actual bout.  The skating was fast and the blocking was furious as the two teams battled it out on the track.  At the end of the day it was Cherry Blossom Bombshells over the visiting Harrisonburg Rocktown Rollers while the DC DemonCats fell to Scare Force One.

I am currently working on a multimedia piece showcasing the DC Rollergirls and the craziness that is a rollerderby bout.  Stay tuned.
