Matt Rock, free-running has much less chances of injury. Skateboarding has more restrictions, even if you can do it right. But a skateboard requires things like pads, helmets, etc. by law.
Skateboarding takes time to prepare for, and has a much higher chance of injury.
You can go run any time.
In any university, if you have 2 classes on the opposite sides campus right after each other, you aren't going to get room to move on the road. Usually people are jumping over rails and tables just to get to class on time.
In America, however, you don't have to wear any skateboarding gear, but it is recommended.
Something like a high school isn't a problem when it gets to getting to class on time, considering it only consists of 1 building.
But universities are a different story, considering they consist of usually 10-30 buildings.
Quote: "You know, when I was your age we had to WALK to school, up hill both ways! In the snow! With no shoes! And we didn't have luxuries, like clothes..."
Clothes aren't a luxury, they are a requirement by law.
You get a REALLY big fine if you don't wear them.
I don't think ANYBODY would ever wear clothes again if it became legal to be naked.
Except in the cold...
I was a kid in those days too. Dang normal people won't accept people who anything over 100 years old, because they are too scared.
Because of that I have to get a new degree every year.
I had to get my G.E.D again, because the universities would not accept something with a date of May 4 1284, even if it is signed by Arthur himself, they say "Very funny." and decline access. But when I went to school in Greek times (400 BC), I learned just about everything about science and math I needed to know.
Who will die first?
