Training wheels would offer superior protection from boo-boos and not just for your hands.
Do you also wear a mouth guard, knee and elbow pads, steel toed shoes? Gotta protect those body parts, JUST IN CASE! Eh? Or why not full body armor; wouldn't it offer increased protection from nasty boo-boos?
