@CheekyThrill Joey Mantia is from here in Tampa, Florida. He trained with Renee, and this is what he got. He's a good skater, but he has a horrible attitude. I don't like him.
inline speedskating will NEVER recover. USAC has screwed it up way too bad. Dont get me wrong I love the sport to death and I was very good at it, but to say inline is growing or that it is as competitive as it used to be is a JOKE.
yea too bad nobody skates anymore they're all on ice...I remember when I skated elementary at nationals there would be 13 heats of senior men with 6 or 8 guys on the world team...now the best skaters are on the ice
yeah too bad you're wrong, inline is a growing sport...dumbass. Chad Hedrick is one of the best and he's a world champion at both. bahahaha what an idiot you are.
@SomeGreenTea inline is not growing its FALLING LIKE A ROCK dumb dick....that's why when I first started speedskating you had to qualify at state meet just to skate REGIONALS...yea that's right you had to QUALIFY to go to regionals there were so many people skating in Ohio...so don't kid yourself and say it's growing
ok well rollersports in generall was dying, but speed skating and roller hockey have been starting to climb back up not as fast as in the europe which has been growing pretty good lately, but still slowly growing and with the right push could come back.
@UCsniper36 Dude nationals has been the same ever since inline racing was introduced into the sport. 7 regions with top 3-4 place out of regionals. So that's 21-28 in each divison... no way you could have 13 heats at nationals.
@surbobmynob 9 regions, 3-4 people place, there are 36 spots,but this year if you come up to lincon and some spots are open, you can race to get into em
No but ya I think he should switch to ice that would be kinda cool to watch but then again we would never get to see him U know us inline people anyways I think that it would be sad if he switched to ice=(.
Everyone want's his autograph because he is a world champion. It's like People around celberitie's, you wan't it so bad just so you cna sya you have been around them and talk to them.
joey mantia is a great skater! but he is such a asshole... everyone is in awe when he walk's into the room and i don't get it.... but that's my opinion..
Wonder if they do Steroid testing,,my, my, my,such big legs at such an early age....

Sorry your right, it's 9; 36/6=6 heats, not 13. So still not possible to have 13 heats
