When your out skateboarding you should always wear your helmet

Why it is importantI always go to the skate park and find people that do crazy tricks

without their helmets thinking that their cool trying to make people like

them. Most people think that it is so easy to do a trick some else can

do but they can’t or at least without a helmet. Helmet’s don’t only

protect you from falling but it also protect you from the sun.

Skateboard helmet history

• Pro-Tec was founded in the early ’70s just as the first urethane skateboard wheels entered the market. This was the huge turning point for the skateboard industry because it allowed skateboards to progress with new and more difficult maneuvers. During this skate progression era, the risk of injury began to increase. Pro-Tec Skateboard Helmets were designed by the same skaters that were riding Southern California’s pools and vertical transitions. They created these helmets with function and aesthetics in mind. The result was a fresh-looking and comfortable skateboard helmet that was intended to save lives!
