Took my daughter to the skate park to practice her skateboarding. She was off the board, and I was going to try getting on. She asked if I wanted any tips. I said I didn't need any.
In my mind, I was going to get on there and immediately start doing 900s. OK, not really, but I thought I'd ride it a few feet and turn it back over to her.
Instead, I stood on the board. It immediately came out from under me. I reflexively caught myself with my hand and fractured my wrist. ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Same thing happened with me and my aunt, she didn't catch herself, but I saw her going down and put my foot under her head.I was like 10.
That's how they get yah! I know it it sounds cheesy, but you gotta think of it as an extension of yourself. It's been honestly way to long since I've skated, should do that now that the weather is nice
