And they were saying he was endangering traffic, WHILE they showed a clip of him pulling off to the side to let cars pass. Amazing.

The more I think about it, the more stupid i realize he was...lol

If you do notice, he is wearing full armored body leathers (the same kind that guys wear in MOTO GP) and a full face helmet. It would hurt if he wiped out, but it wouldn't be that bad. I wiped out doing 40ish with no pads or helmet, that hurt and I have some nasty road rash. Now when I hit those speeds I wear pads and a helmet.

lowsound | Back when I was a giant noob I fell down at only 20-25mph trying to carve down a way too steep hill, and I still have the road rash scar from it. Doesn't take much speed to get massive road rash.

I have a racing jacket for my motorcycle, but I don't know if I want to wear it for longboarding. There is a much higher chance that I will wipe out on my longboard and I like my jacket to look nice. I have been thinking of buying a full leather suit next spring when everything is on sale at the motorcycle shops.

lowsound | Well that's kind of what the jacket's for, and would you sacrifice your skin to keep your jacket looking nice?
