As for the injuries, i'm kind of looking at it as more of a probability thing. If we take hawk and vallely as you pointed out, then we could say that you can be pro and have a 50/50 of having to fucking wreck yourself in the process. So even though those are two completely different scenarios, it can still be useful to look at in terms of the odds. Although i can imagine tony hawk would be the exception and not the rule in terms of skateboarding injuries. |

Just dress up like me when you ride and you'll be fine:
Helmet, gloves, knee pads, shin/calf pads, jacket with integrated sturdy shoulder pads, elbow pads, forearm pads, back/spine protector pad. I may be missing something. . . lol
Like Etho says: "Hoffman prepares for war when he rides" . . . It's true
Im a stunt-nerd

This was from just cruising the streets. No tricks.
Since I moved to the lot the most I've had is a sprained ankle and wrist

But it doesnt matter how good or bad you are when it relates to injuries. Tony Hawk was the world champion skateboarder of his time - He only broke an elbow during his career. Mike V - also a skateboarding legend, yet he has broken basically every bone in his body. Essentially its like comparing a block of cheese to the planet jupiter. |
