Not to be confused with roller blades, Velodrome speed skating is a sport done in a faster rink that uses Inline Skates. There are many different type of races held in a Velodrome, none more fun that the Elimination race called “Last Man Out”. The hindmost skater is eliminated from the competition each time the pack of skaters complete a lap or when they complete certain specified lap numbers. If you think you got what it takes, grab a set of skates and head down to Brian Piccolo Park. To quote song from the 80s “Welcome to the Terror Dome”. Thanks to coach Jairo Cannon for allowing me to capture some shots of the Speed Elite Team during their training session.
