We are trying to devise a policy regarding the use of helmets. Some members feel very strongly that all children should wear helmets to prevent seriousinjuries - especially head trauma.
Other people, particularly the parents, feel that their teens would not wear them and then opt to do their skateboarding away from our site. They would prefer that their kids feel welcome here or that they feel that their kidsare skilled enough that it wouldn't be worth fighting "this battle." We are also interested if anyone knows about the issue of liability. Thanks for any insight
