Haul Pass

Number: 2L8

Derby Position: Blocker, Pivot

Real Name: Jina

Profession: Family Services

Origin of your Derby Name: Unfortunately I have this bad habit of never being on time…and so, Haul Pass was born.

How long have you been skating: I skated a ton as a kid, but most recently, 3 years.

Why Derby? In 2009, I finally found my sister. Upon getting to know her, she told me that she played for the Jacksonville Roller Girls in Florida. A mere suggestion on a note of there only being one Wyoming team at that time…A’Salt Creek Roller Girls became a fast reality!

What positive aspect has Derby brought to your life? Aside from losing a few pounds and gaining several pairs of obnoxious knee socks, I have become more confident in myself, acquired some of the greatest friendships and can honestly say that I am so proud to be able to say how amazing it feels to be able to give back to the community through charity and volunteering.

I can’t leave the house without…? Telling my family I love them.

Likes: most things purple, genuine people, and finding a mate for every sock after doing laundry.

Dislikes: blankets on the floor, butts on my pillows, and seafood.

What are your non-derby hobbies/activities/hidden talents? I can stuff an entire soft-shell taco from Taco John’s in my mouth, does that count? But seriously, I like to hang with my family and go for a ride in the ’57 Chevy.
