Barrie Barreto, a UK Master, produced this video for the new Sebra cut resistant body suits. Barrie has a YouTube account of Barraldinho with plenty of video and photo shots.
I am not normally commercially minded on the site, but I think it is a very frank video, stating what we know but never put on advertising. And anything that keeps skaters safe has to be a good thing.

Sheffield Masters Event Wrap-up
Four Ayrshire Flyers Master skaters travelled to Sheffield at the weekend (27th - 28th Feb 2010) for the first of its kind masters only event. Benny, Brian, Stewart and Paul took part in the event with 19 other skaters form all over the UK. This was a packed weekend with a hard training session on the Saturday night in the pub with a pool competition which Brian Logan won.
On the Sunday, the event was full of a whole range of races, with a difference. There were 444m, 555m, 666m, 777m, distances which were competitive at all levels. There was also team pursuit races and relays.
The best race was left till last Scotland vs. England Relay - this got the crowd going with loud cheers. Scotland took the lead with 2 laps to go and managed to hold their position right to the Finish line. Well Done Scotland's Masters Team: Stewart Logan, Brian Reid, Alan Dobbie and Keith Wright.
This event was never about trophies however there was one trophy THE SKATERS/SKATER TROPHY. The winner of this trophy was voted for by the skaters for not necessarily winning but for trying hard and never giving up. This trophy was won by our very own Paul McKeen. Well Done !!
