You know those guys on the television? Not to mention the guys down at the skatepark? Well they make this stuff look easy. And as the old joke goes 'what's the hardest thing about riding a bike? The Road'. When you wage a body part against a skatepark, you can be guaranteed that the park will be the winner every time.

The truth is it takes hundreds, if not, thousands of hours to become highly proficient on a skateboard or scooter, so you'd best take precautions along the way.

We stock a number of options when it comes to helmets, knee, elbow and wrist pads, for a number of ages.

The truth of the matter is you're not going to look like a goose out there, and nobody's going to look down on you for wearing pads, so there isn't really a downside, especially with the cost of fuel these days, and a return trip to casualty at Cooma hospital, with a broken wrist or head is pretty damn expensive in comparison.
