ROLLERCUP MONZA 2014

Rollercup Monza took place in Italy, 14-15 June 2014, as part of the Sports Festival organized by USSMB in its 39th edition. The skate event was organized by Astro Roller Skating.as. The competition included Battle and Speed Slalom. Unfortunately, the skating conditions were very hard because of the weather. After the rain, organisers had to change the competition's place. They moved all the event to a new location to give better conditions to the skaters but they lost a lot of time. To finish on time they had to give only two runs to the men's quarter-final and cancel the women's small final. However, skaters didn't give up and did their best to get the victory.
