Turn your skates over & educate yourself. It’s good to know the proper terms for your skates!

Wedgie Whip

When you teammate takes a whip from you by grabbing a hold of your underwear. 

Missionary Block

The missionary block is where the block is performed face to face i.e. one skater is facing clockwise on track. 

Passive Offence

Normally associated with the Power Jam, the passive offence sees the team with the jammer on track remaining as stationary as possible, while the penalty killing team try to hold the jammer as long as possible before either they run out of engagement zone or there is a no pack.

Patient Offence

See Passive Offence

Thanks to http://www.derbylife.com/articles/2013/04/permagoat for giving me this new one to use:

Perma-Goat

The blocker that seems to be always the one behind the wall of opposing blockers controlling pack speed. See Goat

Sur5al

sur5al is a form of roller derby played to WFTDA rules but with some notable exceptions.

• It is played by many teams at the same time;
• teams consist of only 5 players;
• teams face off against each other for 1 jam.  A team picks up 3 points for a win, 1 for a drawn jam, but their are also points awarded for gaining lead jammer in that jam.
• teams play each other a number of times, and at the end the team with the most points wins.
• If a player fouls out then that team skates short for the rest of the tournament.

Ok so this took a lot longer than planned but I finally got round to putting all of the defined terms onto the dictionary page for the first time since I initially started it.

You can find all the defined terms here: http://rollerderbydictionary.tumblr.com/Dictionary

As always, if you spot a definition that could be improved please let me know.

I am also going to start looking for appropriate images, Gifs and videos to illustrate some of the entries.  if you see something which would help to demonstrate one of the terms please send it to me.
