things to do when bocking
« on: April 13, 2008, 09:20:51 PM »
hmm as i found out you should never bock in the wet.
you should always where wrist pads!

i was out bocking earlier with my lil cuz.. i used his Pro jumps..

and the phone rang so i went to run and as i hit pavement as i was on tar mac...

i slipped and landed on my hand! all my weight on it and have broken a bone..

so there for i do not recommend bocking when wet and if you do where wrist pads!

please learn from my mistake :(

so you had no pads on? Sorry to hear about your injury mate, done it myself (with pads on) and still cracked a bone in my hand.

It's amazing how many people do not take any notice of the warnings...especially with wrist pads.

hang on a sec before you put people of bocking in the wet..Some places can be more slippery but say that with tire socks I have not had a porblem with it..just be a wee bit more cautious of some places. It really isnt that bad.

As usual though whatever the weather I say wear pads and stuff especially wristguards... Hope your wrist is ok though..dont be put off by the wet just be careful and wear wristguards  :thumbs:

Bad luck J, as spud said it depends on what your bocking as to how much grip youll get, moso roads for example will be good to bock on in the wet
