But like actually how do you fall and not get hurt? Iā€™ve taken 2 falls, one not a scratch and the other left 9 places leaking blood, exact same riding technique

#25

Fall on your bag and keep your head up/foward. And you wonā€™t get hurt

Itā€™s going against you natural instinct to not fall backwards :joy:

#26

So you wanna land on your ass? :thinking:

#27

Well your back. (On your bag)

Landing on your ass works too if you had some jeans

#28

Hmm, what if you only have a t-shirt? I got a laptop worth as much as my board I keep on my back and Iā€™d like to keep it

#29

Well I only had a t-shirt and thin shorts lol

Why are you riding fast with stuff in your bag anyways?

The main reason I have a bag is for protection :joy:

I use $40 moped helmets on ebay. They are rated for much higher speeds than i go and after disassembling one, they seem pretty good tbh

Full face or no? Any links to these? I need an alternative to my motorcycle helmet, will get the pass next year but not much left of this season for me.

Put your laptop in a Tupperware casserole dish. Takes 99% of the impact off the electronics. I used one of the air foam fitting shipping things to get a glove fit inside.

@Alpacaslapper, as far as helmet recommendations, Iā€™ve had the triple eight invader and demon podium and strongly prefer the demon podium. Itā€™s currently high 80s to mid 90s and Iā€™ve had no issues with it breathing well.

Plus it makes you super cute.

I keep coming back to this bell sanction, looks sweet and super under budget.

Iā€™ll keep looking for a few days, maybe someone has input on this exact helmet. But Iā€™m thinking this is a the winner
