Grim Creeper
Derby name: Grim Creeper
Number: 383
Position: Blocker
Why did you start playing roller derby?
I was never into sports, especially team sports. But I saw "Whip It" when it came out and I fell in love! Couple of years later roller derby came to Iceland but I was too anxious and shy to come to an open practice. In 2014 my friend had gone to a practice and then I joined her. Now, 3,5 years later I'm still here.
What are you up to when you're not playing derby?
I'm taking night classes to finish college, work and play in two punk bands. I also go to the gym 3 times a week to get better in derby.
What is the best thing about playing derby?
Kicking asses and getting your ass kicked. The solidarity, fierce women and the freedom to be yourself.
What is your favourite Icelandic food or candy?
Flatkaka with lots of butter and staur (chocolate covered wafers filled with marshmallow fluff).
Words of wisdom: Don't fear the reaper, fear the Creeper.
