    Default Whats your gear setup?

    I'd just like to see what the community typically wears when they go out and board.

    Me:
    Regular Helmet
    Bandana (to keep bugs out of my mouth and nose)
    Slide Gloves
    Knee Pads


    I want a full face helmet (or w/e its called), but I cant find a nice one at any local stores.

    Don't you worry your pretty stripped head we're gonna get you back to Tyson and your cozy tiger bed.
