    Hello OF,

    I use my electric skateboard daily as a last mile commute from the train station to work, amongst other errands when I wish to not use my car.

    Anyone have a recommendation on a good nylon/ velcro cover I can easily put on to protect my watch if by chance I take a fall?

    I see some options on Amazon but they all require removal of my band. I am looking for something that can go over my watch and easily removable for short commutes.

    Many thanks!

    @Mad Dog has some great posts on these protective straps, but I believe they all require the strap to be removed.

    How about an old school sweatband?

    I think @Nathan1967 hit the nail on the head with the old school sweatband so you don’t have to remove the band of your watch. :thumbsup:

    However, you should not be riding an electric skateboard...pure blasphemy...you should be riding a standard skateboard that has no motors of any sort. ;)

    Raine Inc. protective band which requires the removal of the watch band...

    @Nathan1967 I think going old school with a sweatband may be the easiest option - though I am completely surprised that there is yet a better solution that does not require removal of the band!...disregard, I am sharing too much of my next business plan.

    @Mad Dog I'm 30+, can't kick push like I used to anymore....Boosted boards are a game changer for fat, out of shape guys like me that are still clinging onto their youth.
