Roller Doll Profile: Venus De Pileup

Derby Name: Venus De Pileup
Derby Number: 18

What does your roller derby name mean to you?
It's a pun on a Classical statue, commonly known as the Venus De Milo. It's a link to me being a Classicist and so combines my two loves, Classics and Roller Derby. It means that whilst being an obvious sex Goddess, I cause chaos when I'm on skates.

How long have you been skating?
I first donned skates in August 2009 with LRD as a complete skating novice.

Have you had any impressive sakting/derby injuries yet?
A few sprains along the way, a pretty sore back, and plenty of bruises.

What's your best move/technique?
Not found it yet :(

Roller derby pet hate?
Knee fall drills and the sweaty wrist pad smell that follows them.

What's your favourite roller derby anthem/tunes to skate to?
Don't have one, still to come!

Favourite roller derby quote?
'And you do this sport for FUN?!'

When the Hollywood all star cast film "Leeds Roller Dolls- The Movie" is made, who will play you?
elma Blair, apparently we pull the same facial expressions which would be a vital skill for any actress aspiring to emulate me.

Where do you plan to retire with your derby millions?
I'm going to buy the Colosseum, turn it into a massive skating rink, and live there, sigh.
