First Skate More Inline Race Series Event of 2020 Held In Tampa, Florida
The first Skate More race event of the Tampa based outdoor inline racing series started the the speed skating season with a bang. We had some of the best inline speed skaters in the world show up in sunny Tampa, Florida for some hardcore inline racing action.
Many top inline speed skating athletes were in attendance and ready to race, with many more there to watch and support them. Perennial team USA member and multi-time speed skating champion, Kelsey Rodgers (Bont) was in town ready to give the crowd a show, and she delivered by taking first overall in the 18+ Ladies Division. Michael Pasquarella Jr. of Team Florida would take down a stacked 18+ Mens division, while skating very well all day.
Many of the top US inline coaches were at the Skate More Event, and they were very active helping some of their skaters to get ready to race, while helping others to deal with the outcome. Legendary Colombian World Champion, Jorge Botero was in attendance as well! So many great people showed up to enjoy an incredible start to the inline speed skating year!
Other star inline athletes in attendance, included Jarrett Paul (Anabolix), Gio Dausi (Team Florida), Valeria Huseth (Synergy Inline), James Sadler (CCN Racing) and Brian Krupa (RoadStar Sporting Goods) made the trip all the way to Tampa so they could face some top racing competition for the first time this season.
We can’t wait until the next Skate More Race Series event!
Thank you to the sponsors and vendors that support the event and the sport of inline speed skating.
