First Aid Built for People Who Crash
Crash Care is the Old Bones Therapy first aid line, built for the way active people actually get hurt. Not paper cuts. Griptape rash, deck slams, trail spills, and the scrape you get halfway through a session and still want to finish.
The line starts with Crash Patches, tough flexible fabric bandages made to stay on when drugstore bandages quit. The fabric stretches and bends with knuckles, elbows, and knees instead of peeling off the moment you move, and the adhesive is built to hold through sweat and a full session. Every patch is sterile, individually wrapped, sealed on all four sides to keep grit out, and latex-free.
Four Sizes, Because Damage Comes in Sizes
Small handles finger nicks and knuckle splits. Medium and Large cover the everyday cuts. XL is the one you reach for when you take a real strip of skin off a forearm or a knee. If you would rather keep the whole spread on hand, the Crash Patch Refill Kit carries 80 assorted bandages across all four sizes, which makes it the right pick for a home kit, a shop, a team bag, or a van.
Adhesive Bandages That Belong in a Skate Bag
Most first aid supplies are designed for a medicine cabinet. These are designed to get thrown in a backpack, a glove box, or the bottom of a skate bag and still work when you need them. That is the whole point of the line.
Crash Care is a growing category for us. Bandages and refill kits are the foundation, with more first aid gear built for the same customer on the way.
The Rest of the Recovery Kit
Patching the scrape is step one. If you are also managing the joint underneath it, our skateboarding knee braces and skate insoles are built for the same impact, and OG Tape handles the muscle and joint support side. Many of the things we make may be HSA/FSA eligible if you qualify, so it is worth checking our HSA/FSA collection before you check out.
Skater or soccer mom, weekend warrior or every-single-day warrior, this is how you keep ruling at life.
FAQs
What should be in a first aid kit for skateboarding?
A skate first aid kit should cover scrapes and road rash first, since that is the most common injury. Carry adhesive bandages in several sizes, with large ones for forearm and knee rash, plus antiseptic wipes to clean grit out, gauze pads for anything bigger than a bandage, medical tape, and antibiotic ointment. Keep it in a pouch that lives in your skate bag so it is there when you need it.
What is the best bandage for road rash?
Look for a large tough fabric bandage rather than a plastic strip. Fabric flexes with the joint so it stays put while you move, and a bigger pad covers the wide shallow area road rash creates. Our XL Crash Patches are 2 by 4 inches for exactly this. Clean the scrape, dry the skin, then apply, and swap for a fresh one daily or any time it gets wet or dirty.
What size adhesive bandage do I need?
Small at 5/8 by 2 1/4 inches covers finger nicks and knuckle splits. Medium at 3/4 by 3 inches is the everyday size for small cuts. Large at 1 by 3 inches handles bigger cuts on hands, arms, and legs. XL at 2 by 4 inches is for road rash and scrapes with real surface area. If you are stocking a kit rather than treating one injury, an assorted refill pack covers all four.
Are fabric bandages better than plastic ones?
For active use, yes. Fabric bandages stretch and bend with skin, so they hold on knuckles, elbows, and knees where flat plastic strips lift at the edges. Fabric also breathes better, which matters when you are sweating. Plastic strips are fine for a still finger in an office, but fabric is what survives a session.
Are first aid supplies HSA or FSA eligible?
Adhesive bandages, gauze, antiseptic and first aid kits are generally qualified medical expenses, so you can usually pay with HSA or FSA funds. Check with your plan administrator if you are unsure. Browse what we carry that commonly qualifies in our HSA/FSA collection. Truemed is for qualified customers. HSA/FSA tax savings vary.
