Second, wearing a helmet can gives the
raiders a matter of style. Helmets give the
opportunity for rider to express the image
they may want to project when riding on
they way. This benefit may not be important
to some people, but to others, it means a
lot and important. By choosing the most
appropriate helmet from all of the various
styles, such as beanie, shorty, German, and
many others, wearing a helmet which can
projecting an image is an inherent crucial
part of motorcycling and help riders feel
more confident when riding on the road.
However, what most important is
wearing helmet when riding is a matter
of using it properly. Bikers should use the
helmets which are fixed to their head. It
is really not good if they places simply
the helmets on the head without settling
them properly. The bikers should fasten
the helmet correctly to their head in order

Anybody who is over the age of six
knows that there is nowhere safe for
skateboarders to skate. This prevents
young people from enjoying an active,
energetic and adventurous pastime.
Just watch a local street for a short
while and note the steady stream of
skaters speeding up and down the
footpaths. Toddlers can be trampled on
and old ladies can be knocked down as they
struggle home carrying their cat food from
supermarkets.
Skateboarding is a serious sport that
improves young people's health. It increases
fitness, improves balance and strengthens
the joints in knees and ankles. Although it
appears to be a solo sport, when groups
practice together and compete to perform
stunts or runs they form firm friendships.
Young people should be prevented from
becoming overweight couch potatoes. If
they are actively involved in skating, they
do not smoke, take drugs or break laws for
fun.​
