Your Guide to Roller Skating and Blading in Nashville
Nashville is a great town for roller skaters and rollerbladers of all skill levels, abilities, and interests. Host Grace Fuisz sits down with Asphalt Beach Skate Shop owner Steve Larios — and his rambunctious shop kittens — to get his tips for where to learn to skate, how to get involved in roller derby or roller hockey, which roller rinks you gotta check out, and how Asphalt Beach got its name. Thanks to Tecovas, our Western wear faves, for being our exclusive launch sponsor!
