I got hit in the back of my head from an airborn soft boarder.
Rag dolled unconcious into the snow head first. Streched the crap out of my feet (plantar), was out for 5 minutes, broken teeth and had 12 switches in my mouth.
.
I wear a full face now.
If you ride hard, you never know what will hapen.
This happened going from hard pack to wet soft snow (I'm 230lbs).
Launched myself into the bush after the board broke.
This is a down hill mountain bike helmut - very lite.
It's more cumfortable that a standard ski helmut.
It also saves your goggles in a face plant.
have a safe season
