His first crash

My son and I spend most of our free time at the Knoxville Sk8t Park but his mom almost put a stop to that because of my son's very competitive nature. Our second trip to the sk8t park also resulted in a trip to Childrens Hospital. Hub had been watching some older boys doing some tricks and jumps and decided that it didn't look so difficult. He proceded to try a transfer from the 4ft bowl into the flow bowl. Below is the result:

With a concussion and his top two front teeth missing he actually came out pretty well considering the fall he took. The Dr. said it could have been much worse had he not been wearing his helmet.This happened on a Thursday and he was back at the sk8t park on Sunday after evening church service, although, mom wasn't thrilled about the idea. Now when trying new tricks Hub wears his full face helmet.
