Fellow Newschoolers,

Sweeps is coming up and we here at the Bern Barn, are looking to impress the network! if I don't book some A,B,C,D or Z list celebrities and shredders, the bosses are gonna go nuts, that's why im here asking for someone with a sick story to come down for a VIP trip to the bern barn, to be interviewed, and we'll show you a real good time and get you a little gift bag, (come on, a celebrity booking with no gift bag, we wouldn't do it). If you have a sick story about when a helmet, helped you out big time and your a really cool person. post the story here and we'll choose the best entry. after you do that send your name age, and address along with the story to barn@bernunlimited.com

Sincerely,

McLovin Potter

the intern at bern
 
just cracked my mtb helmet in half and replaced it with a bern...

but ski stories....

many years ago on a dark night, not unlike this night....

my helmet story involves a small cliff at smuggs that my brother hit before me. I yell to him after he drops "how was it?" his response..."hard". He's a pretty good rider, so i figured that if its hard the way he went, i;ll try a different approach. I send it slightly to the side of where he was and in the air, (cannon balled joey style i'll add) I noticed what he meant... solid blue frozen river bed. Sweet... I hit with such force that my fat self couldn't absorb any of it, I got sent back seat and smashed my head into the ice. Giving me my first ever concussion. totally lame. Everything hurt. my body, my eyes, ears...everything. it took what seemed like an eternity to get to the lodge where i burried my head under some wet jackets, ate cookies and prayed for death. my parents were so pissed that I wasnt going to ski the rest of the day that i ended up grounded over it... so beat. anyways, to finish this shitty story up, I cracked my head container, almost puked and wasted a smuggs trip all because my kid brother doesn;t know how to not be an asshole.

the end

there's more, everyones got crashing stories, but that's one of mine...
 
its an old story, my old ass has learned many things since this story's occurance... spelling not one of them.
 
well i dont have any really good stories, but only one other person has posted a story! so i figured i would give yo another one to weed through to get to the good ones!

this past season i was at loon, i was taking a few warm up runs before the last in a series of rails jams. i needed to get at least second to win the series overall. i had taken a few runs through the park and was feeling on top of the world! so i get to the top of the mountain and am like ok time for the rail jam. so im skiing down an easy trail to get there because it was the fastest, and most fun, way down. i see some lil kids so i jump to switch to impress them! because you know im feeling good. im doing fine and the little kids are like ooOOooOOOooo mommy look at that skier! then i catch an edge and im down for the count. down right on my head! luckily i had my helmet on! but i was feeling like shit. i almost threw up. probably had a concussion. then i go to the rail jam and im feeling out of it, but i was determined to win the series overall. so im hitting the roller coaster rail and down i go and smack my head off the rail. again, luckily i had my helmet on. but i was done after that. i felt so shitty and i could barely see straight. my helmet saved my life that day! and i won the series overall and a new pair of skis to boot!
 
2 years ago when i was out in colorado i was ski some pow i was sizing up this little 6 ft. cliff when i went for it my ski hit a rock send me into a front flip and my skis to ejectand when i landed on the back of my head if it wasn't for my helmet i wouldve gotten a concussion (sp).
