Roller Rag is a quarterly, community-based print magazine documenting and celebrating the roller-skating world. Created by and for skaters, each issue features essays, photography, art, tips, and stories from the global skate community—alongside original features.
This Winter 2026 issue of Roller Rag marks five years on wheels. To celebrate, skaters from the Roller Rag community share stories inspired by the number five—from ‘Five Tricks’ and ‘Five Bad Roller Derby Puns’ to ‘Five Reasons to Start a Roller Club’. Inside, find an interview with Ivy Bates, founder of Vert Champs and Let’s Roll Coaching; a conversation with Takina Pollock Shafer, who leads Skateport CT, a community bringing people of all ages together on wheels; and take a look at the new WFTDA announcer guide.
