Bonnie Thunders

Popped in a new set of Rollerbones Swiss bearings and I’m ready to go for the season. Let’s get this 21st season of derby started tonight. Thanks to @roller_bones @187quad @triple8quad and @avantabootlabs for keeping me rolling!

New York, you always feel like home 💞

BONNIE THUNDERS 💥 A name that needs no introduction, but deserves every bit of the hype. We’re beyond proud to welcome @bonniethunders to the #triple8quadsquad 🐐🛼 Bonnie doesn’t just play roller derby, she’s helped define it. From her legendary era with @gothamrollerderby to her dominance with @rosecityrollers , she’s built a career that has shaped the modern game and inspired skaters around the world. Her impact was recently recognized with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the first #GlobalRollerDerbyAwards 🏅 Known for gravity-defying 360s and unmatched game awareness, Bonnie’s brilliance on the track is undeniable. But her legacy goes far beyond medals. As a cornerstone of @usarollerderby , she’s brought power, strategy, and leadership to the world stage at the 2025 @rollerderbyworldcup Off the track, she’s just as committed, pushing the sport forward through @fivestride , fostering animals at home, and using her voice to stand up for communities and a more just future. 🌍 Legendary skill. Relentless heart. Total GOAT energy. We couldn’t be more honored to have Bonnie repping the @triple8nyc family. ⚡️ 🎥Clip credit- @pnwderbypics @triple8quad #triple8quad #triple8nyc #rollerderby

We wanted to give a health update about Biggie. Since he’s always been the most outgoing and sweetest guy whenever we have visitors, he has made so made friends over the years. Biggie is in heart failure 💔 we’re keeping him as comfortable as we can in the time he has left. If you want to visit to say good by please reach out. In the mean time we’d love to hear all the memories of our Notorious CAT.

Meet Little Richard! This little chiweenie was rippin’ it up all over Canby for about a month until he was trapped by the kind folks at @waggintailssar . He’s made lot of big adjustments in the month we’ve had him. While he does get along with Gucci and Millie he probably would be happiest as an only dog or with another easy going dog who doesn’t mind being bossed around. He’s crate and potty trained and ready to settle into your house. He’s a sensitive soul and is worried about new people and new situations but once he warms up he’s a real sweet snuggler and wants to be by your side. Share the word that he’s looking for a perma-home through @mywayhomedogrescue 🌭🦈

Out here to Be Iconic @usarollerderby @miapalau @bonniethunders #TeamHitSquad #Rollerderby #USARollerderby

We need everyone in this fight. Organize with your community and neighbors. Get outside to calm your nervous system. F*uck 🧊 Abolish 🐷

I was absolutely honored to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Global Roller Derby Awards among an incredible group of nominees. Derby has been the center of my universe for most of the last 20 years which is honestly wild to think. Excuse the blurry video but I really wanted people to get to hear my acceptance speech. #sportsarepolitical Free Palestine Chinga la migra Trans women are women Destroy white supremacy Cover photo by @pagan_god

I got dressed up with friends and celebrated a lot of incredible athletes this weekend. Congrats to all the nominees and award winners! Thank you @angelcityderby for putting this incredible weekend together 💫 Red carpet photos by @pagan_god #globalrollerderbyawards

Today marks 17 years of adventures with the most amazing @omgxwtf 💫

I’m so excited to share that Bonnie Thunders: That Beautiful Moment won Best Sports Documentary Feature at the @anchoragefilmfestival ! Thank you so much to the organizers for an incredible experience and thank you to all of the filmmakers for sharing your beautiful art. Where should we screen next???

Hope y’all are shopping small this weekend and staying away from corporate purchases! I saw @fennecdesign say small business every day not just small business Saturday and it rings so true. I hope everyone is showing up for small businesses even when we don’t run sales or have to ask for support. Our communities thrive by supporting each other 💫 Some of our favorite small businesses are pinned in the comment below. Tag yours in the comments because there are so many great businesses out there and I know we probably forgot a few.
