2013, InjuryCitation Excerpt :Findings from this study offer new insights into what appears to be an expanding population of high injury risk skateboarders, namely those 18 years of age and older. Most of the medical literature on skateboard-related injuries since the early 1970s has focussed on the injury problem in children and adolescents.13,19,20,22,26,34–37 A few authors have reported skateboard injuries among adults, but did not provide detailed description of their populations or their injuries.12,17,24,27
Skateboarding injuries in Vienna: Location, frequency, and severity

Furthermore, young people are known to be often not fully mature with regard to balance, coordination, and estimation of speed [2, 8, 11, 15, 17]. The type of terrain showed no significant influence on severity to SAIs in this study.
