[quote=Anonymous]A lot of sports that seem safe aren't. For example, figure skaters and synchronized swimmers get a lot of concussions. Of the ones mentioned above, soccer, taekwondo, and skateboarding have all been linked to CTE, even at the non-professional levels. For some reason, lots of experienced skateboarders don't think wearing a helmet looks cool. Though the helmet still doesn't prevent the brain from crashing into the skull.
