Abstract

Skateboards were allowed in Norway from May 1989 after being prohibited for 11 years. The media gave the sport extensive coverage due to the presumed large number of accidents suffered by its participants, and critics wanted the sport banned. We registered all skateboard injuries referred to Akuttetaten in Oslo. 113 patients were examined during a four month period. 63 were in the age group between 11 and 14. There were no serious accidents. 42 (37) had upper/lower limb fractures, 14 required reduction. Four had head trauma with temporary loss of consciousness. The rest suffered minor traumas, distortions etc. The results of the registration are discussed with reference to international literature. Verf.-Referat
