Asheville Hoops Troupe Rehearsal Before Roller Derby (1 of 2)

Asheville Hoops Troupe rehearsing one of their half-time shows for the first home game of The Blue Ridge Rollergirls 2011 roller derby season. (aka: "St. Patrick's Slay") Footage taken backstage of The Asheville Civic Center on Saturday - March 12, 2011 at about 4:30pm. (EST)

Asheville Hoops Troupe had two performances scheduled for this event. You are looking at what they will perform for the half-time show of the first bout. (Their were two bouts that day.)

All hoops are embedded with LEDs; which made an impressive light show in the darkened stadium. Hoops seen here are all manufactured by CosmicHooper: http://cosmichooper.com

Sadly, footage of the actual routine didn't come out very well. My camera simply isn't equipped to handle low-light. :-(
