Susie Jackson - USARS Inline Speed Skating Champion Again:
Susie Jackson of Canton, Michigan looks, talks and giggles like just about every other speed team mom in the rink. Her fun loving exterior isn't overshadowed by her responsibilities as a USARS inline speed skating champion, rink operator, coach and skate mom to her son, Nathan, who is also an SS2Racing Team speed skater.
Susie won the Senior Ladies National quad speed skating title in 1987. But she forfeited a world speed team tryout in 1988 to marry Chuck Jackson and start a family. She gave birth to her son, Nathan, in 1989 and returned to speed skating in the mid - 1990s. Inline skating equipment now dominated the speed skating sports, and it took a while for her to make the transition from traditional quad speed skates to the new inline skating equipment.
Hard work paid off at the 2007 USARS National Speed Championship where Susie Jackson skated against many of her peers from the 1987 national speed event and won the Grand Masters Ladies Inline Speed event. In the seven lap final, she won the start by more than eight feet and set the record for the event.
Susie Jackson currently skates, does consulting coaching and is a rink operator at the Skatin' Station 2 Skating Center in Canton, Michigan. The rink that she owns with husband, Chuck Jackson, is dedicated to encouraging both inline speed and artistic USARS and world roller sports activities.
