ESPN showed a different angle during the contest. A horrible fall. Her arm just crumpled beneath the full weight of her body. Gruesome.
This made me think of how the sport's norm is for no safety gear in the street contests. The vert skaters wear full gear, although I'd argue that safety gear's just as important for the street skaters, especially helmets.
