* Leeds Roller Dolls *

Roller Doll Referee Profile: Boris Snarloff

Derby Name: Boris Snarloff
Number: 1969

What does your derby name mean to you?
It was my favourite out of a short list of bad puns... but strangely appropriate given my Frankenstein-like skating style!

How long have you been skating?
I first put skates on in July 2009, and got my very own pair of derby skates in October that year.

Have you had any impressive skating/derby injuries yet?
I've managed to hit my elbow hard enough that, months later, I still get pins and needles in my hand!

What's your best move/technique?
The self-trip. Done right, it is both elegant and amusing.

Roller derby pet hate?
Skaters with the wrong attitude to derby. You'd know them if you saw them.

What's your favourite roller derby anthem/tunes to skate to?
The Clash version of 'I Fought the Law'... a ref favourite I'm sure!

Favourite roller derby quote?
I'm not sure about favourite, but the most frequently heard has to be Jerry's famous 'keep those knees bent!'

When the Hollywood all star cast film "Leeds Roller Dolls- The Movie" is made, who will play you?
The zombie corpse of Boris Karloff himself

Where do you plan to retire with your derby millions?
I'd rather stay in Leeds and use the money to buy a massive derby venue for all the Dolls to use, big enough for several tracks with permanent track markings (the bane of any official's life!)
