What Australian Rollerblading News and Events Does Rollerblading.com.au Cover?
Updated
Rollerblading.com.au is an Australian inline skating news and scene site that covers competition results, event announcements, rider interviews, videos, and culture posts. It is most useful if you want a record of Australian blading events and results — particularly competition coverage from the mid-2010s onward — rather than a how-to resource or a shop. The site's own tagline describes it as covering "Australian rollerblading | inline skating news, lessons, scene."
What the site covers
The content falls into a few recurring areas:
- Competition results and edits — posts such as the Australian Rolling Open results from Tuggeranong Skate Park in Canberra, and the 2024 Australian Rolling Open Results.
- Event announcements — for example Blade Battle 9 at Kuraby Skate Park, listed for 26SEP2026.
- International representation — posts on Australians at the World Skate Games qualifying event and at what the site calls the biggest Blading Cup in history.
- World championships — Roller Freestyle 2026 World Championships in Paraguay.
- Scene and culture — interviews, clothing edits (such as the Velvet Couch Clothing edit featuring their 2015 team), and rider news.
- Media — video posts and profiles, plus a YouTube presence for Rollerblading Brisbane.
How far back the archives go
The archive list runs from September 2026 back to September 2014, with the densest coverage in 2015 and 2016. That makes it a reasonably deep record of Australian competition results from that period, though posting is not continuous — there are gaps, including stretches of 2017–2019 and 2022.
What it is not
There is no pricing information, shop, or membership signal on the page, so nothing here indicates paid access or paid products. The site also lists a "Learn to inline skate | rollerblade" link and has Lessons and Workshops categories, but the visible page evidence is dominated by news and results rather than instructional material.
Practical notes if you use it
- Comments are open but moderated — the site uses Akismet for spam filtering, and comment fields require name, email, and website.
- Recency is uneven — check the archive or recent posts list rather than assuming a steady publishing schedule.
- Best entry points — the Competitions category for results, News for announcements, and Interviews for rider and scene coverage.
