Jam Skating

Jam Skating is… dancing on skates? Exactly. According to the Urban Dictionary Jam Skating is an art form derived from artistic skating in which a person or group of people perform various tricks, stylish moves, and other visual displays to entertain an audience or compete in a jam skating event.




In my research, I found many websites on the matter, only strengthening that this is not as uncommon as one would think. According to Roller Skating Association International, the sport developed thirty years ago along with the roller disco fad.
For most people, roller skating is something you did at birthday parties growing up, and maybe on occasion with your own kids. What most people don’t realize is that this is something people do, and on a regular basis too.
I plan on learning the rules of the game, and this secret roller skating society.
