Name and number: Smash Bandicooch #96
Favorite position: Anywhere but Penalty box…
What’s your speciality: …I´m way too successful at collecting penalties…at least I know what to work on…
How did you pick your Derby name: It´s a mix of Crash Bandicoot – fox and hero of the correspondent (superawesome) video game and …well…the word cooch. The meaning of the latter you have to find out for yourself.
Derby crush (who inspires you and why): I´d like to think it is all our trainers together. Learning from great skaters who do they very best to support and motivate us – this kind of team spirit paired with amazing performance and personality is something I´ll never stop looking up to. Thank you!!
Favorite Bout preparation song: SKIP&DIE – “Jungle Riot”
Best Derby moment: I find it hard to narrow my derby love down to a specific moment; it´s all the little moments that count. For instance, the way we supported each other for the Minimum Skill Test; when we all work hard together to make a bout happen and those tiny awesome moments, when something finally works and everybody around believed in you. I do really treasure this one moment thought, where I got to jam for the first time in a scrimmage and I realized: hey, this is scary but i´ll survive it! This is awesome!
