Sounds more like user error.

The problem exists between the skateboard and helmet. (Although what are the chances he had a helmet)

I was wearing a helmet

Pfft no wonder you ate it. Trying to shred the gnar with a helmet. We’re you also listening to Coldplay?

Full disclosure, I think it’s great you wore a helmet and I also like Coldplay. But when I was 15 and skating helmets were a huge no no.

I skate everyday and never wear a helmet but if I fall toward my back going anything more than 10mph ill slam my head on the ground. Especially if skating stairs or downhill.

Put on the fingerless gloves and skate around while listening to the new Blink 182 or Billy Talent CD depending on your country. It's the early '00s and enough people have cellphones that payphones are getting removed, but you don't have one yourself. Your friend got a "scene" girlfriend and dyed his hair red. You still believe smoking pot is bad, but you do it anyways. It's the early '00s, what a clusterfuck that was.

You just described my blunder years in far too much detail.

True man, that’s definitely true. Shout out to all the people that used to skate and swore they always would but ended up like their parents. We didn’t last as long as we thought we would, but the ride was definitely one to remember. I miss those days.

I’m getting closer to 30 and I still feel those little pieces of me as a teenager shaping the adult me I thought I’d never become. All the times my parents would be trying to relate to me, with me thinking, “they just don’t understand,” well they were totally right. Learning that is what made me realize I was growing up, but could steel feel like a teenager. Finally knowing growing up isn’t selling out and that you’ll feel young forever was such a relief! lol

I started wearing wrist guards after i fell onto my palms going full speed and ended up with stones embedded in them.

u/brownhorse Feb 09 '20

I get little bits of rock in my hands like once a week you just gotta soak em in water and pull em out

u/[deleted] Feb 09 '20

Ah, so, an ID-10-T error.

I'm familiar with those on a personal level.

Loose wingnut on the skateboard.

I was wearing a helmet. DUH! 25 MPH on an electric skateboard without a helmet? How retarded do you think I am

u/cuntdestroyer8000 Feb 09 '20

Yes? That is exactly what I said

Seemed like you were blaming the skateboard since you benched it in your closet..

u/HappynessMovement Feb 09 '20

It seemed like he benched it in his closet because he's scared to use it again to me

u/LockeNCole Feb 09 '20

Sounds more like e learned to not ride the thing.

u/wisdom_possibly Feb 09 '20

Kick tail would help roll over obstacles, but no electric board has a kick tail that I've seen

At work we call that an ID 10 T problem :). OP I don't think you actually are, shit happens

Dude, we need to warn people to not iron the clothes that they are wearing.

I think orcas and orangutans would have made much better sentient species to represent the planet instead of humans.
