Hey there, Im really looking forward to getting some bocks. And was wondering do you really need protection like pads, helmet, etc?
Thanks for helping a newbie out.

It's really important!
So important that some say to actually buy it before you buy your bocks
Have a look at the following thread I went through all the basics there, and if you are unsure about anything just ask

its the same stuff as sk8 gear. Do you have a store near you where you could try before buying. Or mates with the kit you could try out?

Okay a few things
one welcome to pro jump and I'm gLad u Hàve tooken a interest
just a few things, 1,to be honest even just knee pads and wrist pads will do u fine just now, your not away to back flip or nhn your just starting out, so just get knee and wrist to start with if your like me and hate pads... 2. Don't buy stilts from ebay ! I did that and I got ripped off mega mistake, and what the hells that guy on about ^

Well as resident n0ob I assure you this thread is appreciated.
Though perhaps more vigilant moderation, such as deleting or locking old threads is required?
Anyway, I have a helmet and pads and have just ordered some better pads as I actually... like safety gear...
Woot!
