Well, I can`t tell. But you can get butt pads so it won`t hurt that much when you fall on your butt.

~i am a figure skater and former gymnast...i can tell you that figure skating is safer than gymnastics because there is a less risk that you will fall on you head or neck...in fact i have never seen or heard that happen. the most serious injuries you can get are broken bones, pulled muscles, etc. but nothing too serious. but if your beginning you can wear pads because you will fall down a lot but in the end it is worth it because figure skating is so much fun...it is even you are just learning or not its just fun all around.
