Skate Session : July 2nd




The second of two Landyachtz Skate Sessions happened yesterday in North Vancouver. The main goal behind the sessions was to help kids learn to ride safely, and for them to encourage their friends to skate safe as well. A few of the Landyachtz crew provided tips on how to stop, as well as the key basics for skating smart. There were about 50 kids that showed up, and we were stoked to skate with everyone! It was great to see that many kids that care about their skate community. Thanks to everyone that came out, you guys rock!


 Here are the points:

Skating is a privilege, and it is up to you to protect that! Follow these rules at all times:

   1.      -Always wear a helmet and appropriate safety equipment (ie. gloves, knee pads)

   2.       -Master your braking techniques in a safe and closed area

   3.       -Always stay in your lane and never blow a stop sign

   4.       -Never tow riders from a vehicle

   5.       -Be aware of traffic and always pull over for cars behind you

   6.       -Expect the unexpected – it doesn’t matter who’s at fault, it’s you that’s on the line!
