Olympic Roller Skating - Will It Ever Happen?
The question that started this discussion was: Why is curling - sliding a heavy weight down the ice and brushing the path in front of it to see how far it will go - an Olympic sport and inline skating is not (NOTE: This is a long discussion.

Hockey, Speed or Stunt Skating in the Olympics?
FROM MARK FARNSWORTH: "My guess is that stunt skating (Vert and Street) will be the biggest draw to getting into the Olympics. I think USARS should align with the organization(s) that govern stunt skating or we should try to organize races that are run in conjunction with stunt skating events."
