The only banked tracks I've ever seen are wood floors. (Although to be honest, if you mention that they're going to picture derby from the 70's and probably be less likely to want you around.)
But as luck would have it, next weekend we're playing at Rainy City's home rink (in Olympia Washington) and they apparently have a wooden floor. I don't know if any of their staff is on this board but I'll talk to them about it while I'm there and see what advice they might have.

Totally into hearing what other leagues have done about this too! We have a venue who is moving house to a brand new floor and they don't want us to ruin their brand new surface. This puts us in a bit of a bad situation because ths venue accounts for a 1/3 of our winter practise time.
