This roller derby honey is right on the money...Dali Madison.How did you come up with your derby name?
I am an artist. Salvador Dali is my favourite painter, although I do love my sweets i.e. cupcakes, candies, you know what I'm talking about. Do you remember Zingers? (They are still around you know) They were created by Dolly Madison. So Dali Madison became my name with a cupcake sporting a moustache for my logo.How and when did you get involved in roller derby?
In fall 2005 I went to Rollercade (before we had a place of our own to practice) to check out this thing called Roller Derby with Strawberry Shortkick. We both joined together.Any serious injuries?
Not serious, just chronic shoulder pain. I have been through several MRI's, acupuncture, physical and massage therapy, and even had an Arthagram ( Joint x-ray-that is when they stick a needle in your shoulder all the way to the bone, then inject dye! Ouch) Outcome? It still hurts and I am still practicing the strength building exercises.Do you have a rival on the track?

Caribbean blue green metallic Riedell 265 boots with pink strips, with Sure-Grip XK4 Doubler quad plates, and Black Devil Ray wheels with the aluminium hubs. I use Bones super Swiss 6 bearings.Most exciting moment in your derby career?
