FOREWORD

Mind, Body & Roll is SkateGroove's new online magazine. Over the years, our visitors have requested more options for communicating with one another. This magazine will cover a variety of topics and concerns that skaters have. Skaters nationwide will be personally interviewed and their stories published.

The Mind

For many of us, skating provides a form of psychological and emotional release from the every day stresses in life. Articles that cover topics in this area may become helpful as skaters are allowed to share their stories with others.

The Body

Skating is a wonderful form of cardiovascular fitness and endurance. With a growing number of Americans leading unhealthy lifestyles due to lack of physical fitness and poor time management for healthy meals, many skaters have gotten away from these unhealthy habits by simply doing what they love to do . . .skate. This magazine will allow us to share information about some of the physical stresses we go through and how skating can help to alleviate them.

The Roll

The roll is what we are all about. There are many skaters who have a variety of talents with terrific stories to tell. This magazine will give skaters an opportunity to share their background, knowledge and experiences with everyone.

As time goes on, this magazine will continue to grow. We hope you find this new feature to the Website exciting and interesting. We will try to focus on articles for skaters, by the skaters. Feel free to send us feedback at any time.

Sincerely,
Desi
