Banning Longboarding in Talega

I would like to appeal to your sensibilities on the matter of Longboarding (Skateboard vs Longboard).

Please watch the attached video. It will only take a few minutes of your time to understand my sentiment expressed very well in this platonic video:

As you can see, I believe there is a better community based way to protect our beautiful area. I would like to propose that roller blades and roller skates are different. And that mountain bikes and road bikes are different. And most definitely, Parkboards are different from Longboards. I am happy that Ralph's skate park provides a place for Park boarders. But how about Longboarders?

A long board is typically not a sidewalk grinder, we don't ride rail, jump stiars, it has a much broader age range, they are very quite and not destructive to property. They most definitely are equal to road bikes in the manner of safety and have been surveyed. That's right, more people per vehicle get hurt from road bikes than longboarding. Old fashion road bikes are only accepted more because of their fond history with people like you. I have nothing against road bikes. It is only a point of reference. I would not mind sharing the road.

Please, view the following site to understand that longboarders are organized and are getting very popular:

Finally, I would like to appeal to your San Clemente sense. This is a town that is famous for its surf and skate culture. Many media magazines, contests, retailers and professionals reside/make their living right here. It is the presence of these things that make San Clemente great amongst others great attributes. We are not Irvine. I pay more to live the surf and skate life. My longboard is not designed to be in the Ralphs skate park it is designed to be on the road. Like my son on his bike, my skill is limited and I would like to be able to ride in a safe environment.
