I've been going on my days off as long as it's dry. I'm going first thing tomorrow morning, nobody will be there. I love having that whole park to myself. It's so fun, still trying to lear to carve, doing anything frontside on transition is still real uncomfortable. I got the trucks loose, not sure if it's a good thing yet, since I'm still getting my balance back. I figure if there lose now I'll just not have to get use to it late. Hit me up when you get your pads, I'll meet you down there for sure. |

I mail ordered all of my equipment, got my helmet off ebay for $20 w/shipping, ordered smith scabs, knee, elbows from team goon. They got stuff at Home skate shop for about normal retail prices. I'm sure there is a shop by the park just never paid attention while I was down there. |

| There are people all the time with no equipment, its not mandatory as far as I know. Cops cruise by and don't say anything to people without equipment. I'll be going the next three days for sure. |

really? they passed an ordinance saying you have to wear a helmet. pads are optional.
i might chance it but it would suck to be the first person to get a ticket for it. |

| Seriously, most of the time, besides the bikers I'm the only one with a helmet, and one of the few with pads on. If there is an ordinance they aren't enforcing it very well, if at all. |

Every time I've been there I'm in the vast minority of people wearing any protective gear at all, and I'm usually there with most of the others...
If your sole concern is getting a ticket for not wearing a helmet, don't sweat it. If you're also hoping to keep your brains on the inside of your head, then I'd go ahead and pick one up. My bucket has saved my melon more than once there. |
