i know, but its wierd, because when u approach an object u know how high to jump to stall it. i can only get 2 inches, but when i approach a bench that is about 18 inches, i can actually stall it jumping with the wheel. |

That's like asking if inline skating, skateboarding, or bicycling are really that dangerous. Of course Heelys are, especially to newbies. Accepting this fact is one of the key points of wearing them.
And I still can't jump more than an inch off the wheels. |

whenever i heel, one of the most impressive moves are jumping over chains(1 foot to 2 feet high). i recently saw some guy attempt to ollie over a chain and tripped and broke his arm. i feel like i should stop sometimes. |

Everyone eats crap sometime, Ogel. Wear pads if you don't feel safe, and don't do anything you don't think you can actually pull off, but there's no point in getting scared. |
