How to fall off a scooter if a fall is inevitable?
No matter how strange it may sound, but you need to be able to fall as well as to ride - it can save health, and in some cases life. Here are some helpful suggestions for a proper drop:
⠀
If you feel that you are about to fall, try to cover your head, hold it to your chest and tighten your neck.
Arms and legs in a bent position, keep your hands at chest level, do not wave.
As soon as you start to fall from the scooter, immediately release the wheel, otherwise you may be injured.
If the fall is in the hands, do not squeeze them into fists - it is better to fall in the palm of your hand so as not to knock knuckles.
In no case do not relax the muscles during the fall - they should spring and absorb the shock.
Also, for greater safety, try to use protective equipment - a helmet, elbow pads, wrist protector, knee pads.
