Please wear your knee pads.
Just throwing this out there. After having come a cropper in the way to work in no knee pads, not skating since the 26/3/12. Now i'm getting my head around knee surgery on the 27/7/12 (yes thats 4 months and one day) all because I thought I didn't need knee pads on the path I had skated hundreds of times every day for the last year and a half.
You never know what's happened to the road just in front of you. (washed away by flash flooding the week before.)
Your knees are a marvel of biological engineering, don't risk them.
Kids say "its only skin it will gro back" but I'm talkin about the inner workings I your knees, the cartilage, the ligaments and bones.
Put off buying the next set of wheels, ring cre8iv sk8, or ANY of the shops on the right hand side of this page (Hopkin, daily, hemly, concrete lines) and BUY THE BEST QUALITY KNEE PADS YOU CAN.
Then....
Wear them!!!!!!!!
Little rant over.

Skateboarding Australia (SbA) promotes the growth and development of skateboarding in Australia.
Their role is to develop skateboarding at all levels and to increase opportunities for skateboarders.
For your benefit they have recently launched an instructional series of video's in relation to skateboarding as a valid means of commuting.
Enjoy the 1st installment .....A to B with Dix

Yep. I could have avoided this if I'd been wearing kneepads. So not worth riding without them.
