Four hundred pounds of thundering flesh is whipped out of the pack. ICE BOX is on the jam, and is in the new Hollywood documentary titled JAM!

 

Thousands hate the ICE BOX and want him kicked out of the game. They yell "go back to where you came from, Orlando."

.......................

LEGENDARY TEAM

This legendary roller derby team,the THUNDER, represented Florida with traditional coed squads, featuring famed roller derby stars such as Jan Vallow, Greg Robertson, Pam Patolo, Larry Lewis, Gwen Miller and ICE BOX. The old-school action was dramatically caught on film in the new movie JAM.

 

Now, the THUNDER transitions to a new modern format with new skaters.

 

The THUNDER whispers through the atmosphere on God's winds. It burrows across layered clouds, accumulating kinetic power.

 

The THUNDER'S jolt of electricity strikes a lightening charge; laying opponent's out with destructive fury.

 

The THUNDER lives up to it's name where ever  the team competes.

 

JAM movie star and long time roller derby star, Alfonso Reyes, battered and bewildered after a clash with a THUNDER player.

 

In 2007, the THUNDER collaborates with teams named the Lady Killers and the Bay City Bombers to develop a new training strategy. The program is dedicated to empower skaters and involve them with in a rewarding professional sport.

.......................

PROFESSIONAL DERBY

The American Roller Derby League builds the platform and provides the professional resources that encourage athletes to reach for their dreams.

 

In a rare, one time only event, the THUNDER sets up banked track battle grounds along side a professional wrestling organization. Fans go frenetic with wrestling and derby, a summer event of SLAMS and BAMS.

 

Referee's suffer headaches keeping the game from spinning into hardcore violence when the THUNDER hits town.

Dave Martinez controls the pack like the seasoned expert he is at this San Francisco game. Teammates set up  defensive formations with a backstop position and blocker.

.......................

A picture speaks a thousand words. Why do people love roller derby?

 

The skaters pound their wheels against the banks, hammering derby dust and ear shattering noise into the arena. Wheels rumble at  rip-roaring speeds as thousands of loyal fans are hypnotized by the whirling mayhem. Roller legend, Jan Vallow of the DEMONS, Patsy Delgado on the THUNDER. All skaters are featured in the new hit film, JAM.
