What is Rollerblading.com.au?

Updated

Rollerblading.com.au is an Australian inline skating and rollerblading news site covering the local scene — competitions, culture, fitness, interviews, lessons, parks, photos, products, tours, and videos. It is a scene-focused publication rather than an official governing body or an online shop, so use it to follow Australian blading news and community activity, not to register for events or buy gear directly.

What the site covers

The site organizes its content into categories that map closely to how the Australian blading scene operates:

  • Competitions — results and coverage of Australian events
  • Culture — scene stories and community features
  • Fitness — skating as exercise and training
  • Interviews — profiles of skaters and figures in the scene
  • Lessons — learn-to-skate content, including a "Learn to inline skate | rollerblade" link
  • News — general scene updates
  • Parks — skate park information
  • Photos and Videos — visual coverage of events and skating
  • Products — gear-related posts
  • Tours — skating tours and trips
  • Workshops — organized learning sessions

Evidence it's an active scene publication

The site's recent posts and archives show it tracks real Australian events over time:

  • Blade Battle 9 at Kuraby Skate Park (listed for 26SEP2026)
  • Roller Freestyle 2026 World Championships in Paraguay
  • Australia Thrives at the Biggest Blading Cup in History
  • World Skate Games Qualifying Event 2024
  • Australian Rolling Open Results

Archives stretch back to at least 2014, with posts spread across most months and years since — an indicator of long-running, continuous coverage rather than a one-off page.

Community features

The site runs on WordPress and includes standard community interaction:

  • Comments are open on posts (one example: a comment on "Blade Battle 9" pointing readers to the updated Rollerblading Brisbane YouTube channel)
  • Comment feeds and entries feeds are available
  • A login option exists for the site

Commenting requires a name and email, and comments are moderated through Akismet spam filtering.

What it is not

Based on the available evidence, Rollerblading.com.au is not:

  • An official governing body or federation for Australian skating
  • An online store — no pricing, payment platforms, or product checkout signals appear on the site
  • A single-city club — its coverage spans multiple Australian locations and national-level events

If you want to follow Australian inline skating news, find event results, or connect with the local scene through comments and linked channels, this site is a relevant starting point. If you need to enter a competition or purchase equipment, you'll need to go elsewhere.
