Rogue Roller Girl reporter Risky Biscuit is on the derby trail again this time in search of an infamous recluse. As luck would have it, the trail was not difficult to trace for she followed the stench that could only be the sweat, tears and humility of the many outwitted opponents of Leif Mia Lone.{mosimage}
Q: First of all, please explain your extraordinary name.
Leif Mia Lone: I’m the Viking warrior from the barbaric North that doesn’t play well with others...“Leave Me Alone”... Get it? Good. Now go away... Just kidding!
Q: What is your favorite part of derby?
Leif Mia Lone: The girls. *grin*? But no — really — the girls. They rock. They’re some of the coolest ladies I’ve met in my lifetime. I feel like I learn a lot from them. Plus, you know, beating up other chicks on skates is fun, too. Oh, and the after parties. You know how much Vikings looove to party! *grin*
Q: Describe “derby funk.”
Leif Mia Lone: “Derby Funk” isn’t a dance. It’s actually the raunchy scent that your gear (socks, helmet, pads, skates, etc) takes on as you play more and wash them less. I am the QUEEN of derby funk. I’m the “smelly girl” on the team. I just let them fester in my bag. I just take it out for derby. And let me tell you — the smell? It’s kickin, that’s for sure. The girls can smell me coming a mile away. But it works as a good defense, because nobody wants to touch me. *grin* But in all reality, I have to wash my pads soon — they’re even starting to make ME gag now...
Q: Are you superstitious?
Leif Mia Lone: Yes. Very. I had this one pair of lucky tights — key word: HAD. I got them before a bout in Columbia, S.C., back in November ‘07. I wore them for EVERY bout and did well. Then after our bout in Jacksonville, Fla., somebody threw them away. The next bout after that — Season’s Beatings — I separated the AC joint in my shoulder. Go figure.
Q: Give me a basic rundown of the typical derby girl.
Leif Mia Lone: There is no such thing as a “typical” derby girl! We’re all so different. But we all share one common bond — the love of the game. We love to skate hard, play hard and hit hard...if it wasn’t for derby, I never would have approached the majority of these women and yet some of them are the most amazing friends I’ve made. They’re my Rogue family.
Q: You’re also a pro-wrestler for Ring Wars Carolina (The Scandinavian Sweetheart). If Leif Mia Lone and the Scandinavian Sweetheart were to ever bout, who would win?
Leif Mia Lone: Oooh. That would be a GREAT match-up. Honestly? I think it would end up being a draw. They would beat each other senseless, each out-smarting the other over and over again. But in the end, they’d probably end up going out for some Aquavit or something.
Q: What do you want to be when you grow up?
Leif Mia Lone: I want to be an achiever of my dreams. I want to be happy.
Q: What makes you so awesome?
Leif Mia Lone: Um, I’m not. Not really. I’m just me. *shrug* your typical average girl with flaws all her own, trying to find her way in the world.
