Always wear proper protective gear when riding. This includes knee and elbow pads and an age-
appropriate helmet.

Helmets should fit comfortably and snugly, covering the forehead
but not hindering your field of vision.
+
The helmet should have a chin strap and buckle to keep the
helmet in place.
+
The helmet should be made out of a hard, protective outer shell
and an impact-absorbing inner layer at least 1/2-inch thick.
+
The helmet should be approved by the U.S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission (CPSC), the Snell Memorial Foundation, or the
American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM).
