ABOUT RST
RST is an online resource station for adult R&B quad roller skaters and is designed to inform, enlighten and stimulate avid skaters and others who are attracted to our features.
HOW RST BEGAN
RST’s conception was much like an unplanned, unexpected pregnancy which, in a sense, “just happened.” The first issue was published in June 2002 and surprisingly the idea to create an online skate newsletter did not pop into my head until a few short weeks prior to that.
As a freelance writer and also an avid skater, I had written an article series about the history of today’s skate circuit which was intended for publication on another site. However, when portions of that article were deemed too controversial to be published there I was left with an unexpected dilemma: ‘how was I going to get the information out to my intended audience?’
A few weeks later, the answer came to me and that was the humble, unexpected conception of Roller Skating Today. From then until now, the labor of love has continued and in many ways RST is feeling its way along on a month to month basis.
RST’s FUTURE?
My original thought was to publish only enough issues to share the article series I had in mind, but the RST audience continues to grow and the features and archive articles continue to be sources of reference for RST visitors. What I at one time thought would be no more than a 12 month project has grown into a permanent fixture for those seeking the information RST has to offer.
The continued support and encouragement of RST readers is greatly appreciated. If you have any ideas on how this online resource station can be improved or updated, please let us know.
For the love of skating, for the elevation of the sport and for the love of those who share the same passion, you should be……
