Skate City is in Columbia County on Sudan and is open 7 days a week.

I can't wait to see the follow up video of one or both of the brothers lying on the ground with his head splattered all over the place from a lack of helmet use. Way to go Skate City for responsibly promoting the safety aspect of your sport.

This is Elias Wilson from the video. The skate park does promote safety habits such as wearing pads "but" with the riders and skaters who are 18 years and older, they ride at their own risk and seeing as how me and my brother are legal adults we can ride with or without helmets if we want. But I do appreciate your concern :D.

Why don't they have on HELMETS, you just never know what will happen regardless of the size of the ramps. PUT ON SOME HELMETS.

We are aware of the risks of riding without helmets. I honestly appreciate your concern but if we are hurt, dont lose sleep over it it's our choice not to wear helmets since we are like I said before legal adults.
