On this episode of the SK8LIKEYOU Podcast, I sit down with Belle of Roller Rag Magazine, a quarterly publication with readers from all over the world that’s helping document and elevate roller skating culture. Belle breaks down how she defines Roller Rag as a “community-sourced” magazine, with nearly 85% of each issue’s content coming directly from reader submissions, making it a true reflection of the skating community.

Belle also shares her longtime career in print media, why she still loves the medium, and what continues to inspire her to tell stories through print in a digital-first world. We discuss the importance of preserving skating history, giving shine to underground talent, and how community-driven media helps connect skaters across regions, styles, and generations.

From culture and fashion to floor styles and storytelling, this episode highlights why Roller Rag Magazine matters and how skaters themselves are shaping its pages. If you love roller skating, community, and the art of print, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
