Safety first at Skate Farm
May 17, 2025
Skateboarding, scootering, and inline skating are all about fun and freedom โ but safety always comes first. At Skate Farm, weโre serious about keeping our riders safe while theyโre having the time of their lives.
Whether itโs your first time on wheels or your hundredth, one thing stays the same โ you need to gear up properly. Thatโs why safety is built into everything we do at Skate Farm, from our lessons to our free skate sessions.
Helmets and pads: non-negotiable
To use the park, you must wear a helmet โ no exceptions. We also strongly recommend elbow and knee pads for all riders, especially younger or beginner skaters.
Why? Because falling is part of learning โ and the right gear helps prevent bumps, bruises, and more serious injuries. Itโs not just about rules โ itโs about respect for yourself, others, and the space we share.
Donโt have your own kit? Weโve got you covered
We get it โ not everyone has gear at home. Thatโs why we offer a range of helmets and pads to borrow. Our team will help make sure it fits correctly, so you can ride confidently and comfortably.
We check and clean all our gear regularly to make sure itโs safe and ready to roll.
Trained, certified, and always looking out
Our commitment to safety goes beyond equipment. The Skate Farm team is trained and certified to handle a wide range of situations, so you can feel confident knowing you're in good hands:

This isnโt just a skatepark. Itโs a place for families, schools, and communities โ and we take our responsibility seriously.
Ride safe, ride smart
Safety doesnโt kill the fun โ it keeps it going. By wearing the right gear and riding with awareness, we can all enjoy the park to the fullest. So grab your helmet, suit up, and letโs roll โ safely, confidently, and together.
