Disclaimer
Doctor Skate provides independent research-based content. Here’s what that means for you as a reader.
Last Updated: January 1, 2025
Please read this disclaimer carefully before relying on any content published on Doctor Skate (doctorskate.com). By using this site, you acknowledge and agree to the terms described below.
1. For Informational Purposes Only
All content published on Doctor Skate — including product reviews, buying guides, gear comparisons, technique tips, and beginner advice — is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. Nothing on this site constitutes professional advice of any kind, including but not limited to medical, safety, legal, or financial advice.
Skateboarding and hoverboarding are physical activities that carry inherent risk of injury. Before purchasing any equipment or attempting any technique described on this site, we encourage you to consult qualified instructors, safety professionals, or product manufacturers as appropriate for your situation.
2. Research-Based Content — No Physical Testing
Doctor Skate does not physically test the products we review or recommend. Our content is based entirely on:
▸ Manufacturer-published specifications and product documentation.
▸ Verified buyer reviews aggregated from Amazon and other retail platforms.
▸ Community discussions from skateboarding forums, Reddit, YouTube, and similar sources.
▸ Publicly available safety certifications and independent test data where applicable.
We aim to represent this data accurately and fairly, but our findings reflect the consensus of external sources — not our own hands-on testing. Individual product experiences may vary significantly based on rider skill level, use case, terrain, and maintenance habits.
3. Accuracy Disclaimer
We make every reasonable effort to ensure the information on Doctor Skate is accurate and current at the time of publication. However, we cannot guarantee the completeness, accuracy, or timeliness of any content on this site.
Product specifications, prices, availability, and safety ratings change frequently. A product we recommend today may be discontinued, reformulated, or superseded by a better option by the time you read this. Always verify current specifications, pricing, and availability directly with the manufacturer or retailer before making a purchase decision.
Found an error? We take accuracy seriously. If you spot outdated specs, a discontinued product, or incorrect information in any article, please contact us at contact@doctorskate.com and we’ll correct it promptly.
4. Affiliate Disclaimer
Doctor Skate participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program. This means we earn a small commission when you click our links and make a qualifying purchase on Amazon — at no additional cost to you.
These affiliate relationships do not influence our rankings, recommendations, or editorial opinions. Products are included in our guides based solely on research merit. For full details, see our Affiliate Disclosure.
5. Safety Disclaimer
Skateboarding and hoverboarding involve physical risk. Always wear appropriate protective equipment — including a certified helmet, wrist guards, knee pads, and elbow pads — when riding. Supervision is strongly recommended for children and beginners.
Doctor Skate is not responsible for any injury, accident, or damage resulting from the use of products we review or techniques we describe. Our content is a starting point for your research — not a substitute for professional instruction or sound personal judgment.
