Product Description
From finding a pair of rusty roller skates in a garage, Jayson Sutcliffe went on to become three times world champion in his sport, amassing twelve world top 3 rankings, overcoming trial and hardship, bias and abuse and the untimely death of his beloved brother.
After twenty years of suffering, Sutcliffe has chosen to tell of the childhood abuse that ultimately changed his life forever. In an effort to bring closure to what he describes as memories from hell, the pain and suffering he endured throughout will shock all his readers in a revealing chapter of unbelievable events. In a world outside of the suffering, Jayson was the first artistic roller skater from Australia to win an individual medal at a Word Championship and went on to make history by becoming the first skater ever to win a world title on both roller and In line skates for figure skating.
