I do live in australia, (dont judge us all by the stupid shit i say) for a lot of us drinking is just another hazard we encounter. And i do my best to not let this affect anyone else,
I think that was pretty obvious from drink-riding in thongs haha 
Yeah but you’re adding to the problem, and that makes me sad 
It’s really not hard to avoid it either. Taxis, uber, designated drivers… there’s so many ways to get around the problem.

But this is off-topic. @SimosMCmuffin I LOVE that analysis. When I eventually crash I’ll do the same thing

Yes i know what not to do. Hey i gave a few people something to talk about at least… Touchy subject. Dont drink and drive, you will lose your licence. Danger is just natures way of getting rid of dickheads. Haha

i don’t feel any sympathy for you. you probably could’ve easily avoided your fall altogether if only you had used your brain…
drunk driving is not “silly”, it’s deadly.

I loved this, glad you’re ok. I am so tempted to invest in a full face like a pass but that price though. Right now I’m only rocking a pro-tec skate helmet, not much but better than nothing I guess.
That 3D printed part certainly saved your board from further damage. The physics behind a crumple zone has had me fascinated since I was 11.
I’m only using a skate helmet as well. If I go over backwards it’ll save me but if I faceplant I’m in trouble. I don’t know if I consider this to be an acceptable risk yet or not.
Hate to be a kill joy, But don’t you need to replace the helmet after a crash?
You should, yes. Good point.
Hopefully not in Sydney 
I would trust a 3D metal printed parts 
Screw the plastic!!!
depends on the severity of the crash. in general, higher quality helmets like the TSG Pass take a bit harder of an impact to crack than your average skate bucket
My opinion about drink and drive or drink and ride is not only taking your license, I would put you in jail for some days at least.
Everyone who is saying he / she can handle drinking and driving is an asshole. You people aren’t thinking on what if you get into an accident, that could have been missed by only a brake of a second, that of course you didn’t do because of slow brain. Now, look on a situation where someone dies (not the drunk f…) because of your idiot decision.
In your case, I even find it very outrageous that you start a treat about your ignorant behaviour.

drunk driving is an extremely touchy subject for me. my uncle is permanently paralyzed because he was rear ended on a motorcycle by a drunk driver.

Yeah, that’s why I say, I would put all drunk drivers for at least some days to jail.
The most ignorant thing you can do, is drunk driving.

worst part is, the driver that destroyed his life got away with just a decent fine.
I son’t understand why States don’t get on harder against drunk drivers.
