That nice straightaway off to the side there? Probably a good idea to stay away from it unless you want to get plowed over by a woman on quad skates. Phoenix, done up in full derby gear, is sprinting from one end of the bar to the other, stopping right before she hits the wall by spinning into a 180 and rocking up on her toe stops (which accounts for the long squeeeeeak as they drag across the floor).
So far, she doesn't look too graceful, but the less-than-perfect stops get the job done. Most of the time.
Though there's also a faint "Waugh, fuck!" every so often as she teeters on the verge of losing her balance or almost slams into the wall. Fuckin' turnaround stops, how do they work.

Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh-squeeeeeeak.
