I'd have expected to slip off the pedal one day, when I wore some RUNNING SHOES for trials... :ugh2:

Get some decent trials shoes instead of shinpads!

Doesn't look that bad
Is the running shoes for trials thing a trend in OZ or what? I can't stand them, personally.

I've never tried riding in running shoes. Buddy of mine loves them. I've always just riden in flat bottom skate style shoes.

But anyway, thats a gooder lol My last shinny that was really bad like that was so fucken retarded!

I was track standing getting ready for an up and some how! My foot slipped off and I ripped the shit out of my leg. Everybody looked at me like i was retarded. I felt retarded... I repressed that memory until now... I'm going to drink tonight.

it was pretty bad, unfortunately most of my shin is scartissue from years of trials and dh before that. so even stitching it up was a mission for the doc. but anyways im sure some ppl will av had worse whatever.. its not a competition lol. Iv had a skingraft on my leg bout 4years back, it missed it by about half an inch! luckily!!

Some running shoes aren't bad for trials. Ive actually found them to work out better than some of the stiff-soled skate shoes.

Been there, done that, no fun. I got shin pads afterwards and I've liked them. I wear pretty grippy skate shoes, use decent pedals, yet my shin pads have saved me more than once. Maybe I just have a horrible technique that isn't conducive to my feet staying on the pedals :dunno:

*points and laughes* Nice job letting the blood run all the way down to your shoes before you took em off. Good effort chief... There needs to be an injury thread where people can show the world how retarded they are... I actually purchased shin guards just for this very reason. I'm retarded. TRIALS FTW!

Peace out!

yeah, most people think it is not cool to wear shin guards. cuz it looks strange. After these posts and videos of guys getting shinned, i wonder if they started wearing shin guards! Probably NOT.
