Dear Editor:

I write in response to your front page story in July 13's North Shore News (District Bans Longboards on Skyline).

Your photo of two young longboarders says it all. These people are often in a low position on their boards on district thoroughfares. They cannot be seen by drivers.

It is a safety issue for all concerned, and I think the DNV should ban it throughout the municipality.
