What Video, Photo and Media Content Is Available on Rollerblading.com.au?

Updated

Rollerblading.com.au hosts Australian inline skating media across dedicated Videos and Photos categories, plus event edits and results posts tied to competitions. The site is a WordPress-based news and scene hub rather than a video platform, so most moving-image content is either embedded in posts or linked out to YouTube channels such as Rollerblading Brisbane.

What kinds of media the site publishes

The site's category list shows the main content types it organises around:

  • Videos – edits and clips, often tied to events or teams
  • Photos – still imagery from parks, competitions and scene coverage
  • Media – a broader catch-all for mixed or linked content
  • Competitions – results posts that frequently include edits
  • Parks – location coverage, which pairs with photo and video posts
  • Products, Tours, Workshops, Lessons, Fitness, Culture, Interview, News

If you are looking for footage rather than written reporting, the Videos and Photos categories are the direct entry points. Event posts under Competitions are the other place edits tend to appear.

Event edits and results posts

Competition coverage on the site combines results with video. Examples visible in the post archive include:

  • Australian Rolling Open 2015 – results from Tuggeranong Skate Park in Canberra, published alongside an edit (the edit and results were also referenced by Be-Mag)
  • Australian Rolling Open Results – a separate results post for the same event
  • World Skate Games Qualifying Event 2024
  • Australia Thrives at the Biggest Blading Cup in History
  • Roller Freestyle 2026 World Championships in Paraguay

So if you want to watch Australian skaters competing, the Competitions category is where results and edits are bundled together rather than split into separate media pages.

Linked YouTube channels

The site does not host its own video player library. Instead, media is often pointed at external channels. A comment on the site from Rollerblading Brisbane links to their YouTube channel:

Check out the updated YouTube Channel for Rollerblading Brisbane https://www.youtube.com/@rollerbladingbrisbane

That comment sits under a post titled Blade Battle 9, with a related recent post Blade Battle 9 at Kuraby Skate Park dated 26SEP2026. This is the pattern to expect: a site post announces or recaps an event, and the actual footage lives on a linked channel.

How media connects to news and events

Media posts on Rollerblading.com.au are not standalone galleries. They attach to the scene calendar:

Content type Where it appears What it typically contains
Event edits Competitions, Videos Footage from named events and skate parks
Results + edit Competitions Placings plus embedded or linked video
Channel links Comments, News posts Pointers to YouTube channels like Rollerblading Brisbane
Photos Photos, Parks Stills from parks and competitions

The archive runs from at least 2014 through 2026, so older event edits remain accessible by browsing the Archives list (organised by month and year) or the Competitions category.

Practical ways to find specific media

  1. For a named event – go to the Competitions category or search the event name (e.g. "Australian Rolling Open") to find the results post, which usually carries the edit.
  2. For general footage – browse the Videos category, then follow any YouTube links out to the original channel.
  3. For a specific skater or team – check Interview and Profiles posts, which often embed or link media featuring that person.
  4. For a specific park – the Parks category pairs location info with photo and video coverage.
  5. For older content – use the Archives sidebar, which lists months back to 2014.

One caveat: because media is frequently linked rather than hosted, a post may still be readable while its embedded video depends on an external platform remaining available. If a link is dead, the event results text is usually still intact in the post body.
