HelmetS

get whatever kind you want, but you shoulkd get one, i learned my lesson last year when i crashed switch and smoked my head on the icy landing

Don't drink and park, accidents cause people.

 
yes you should Think about getting a helmet. I know that some people just make fun of kids who were helmets, but its better than getting a concusion or worse. Let me tell you a little story.

Last year around thanksgiving some friends and I gathered some snow from the local ice skating rink. We made an In-run and a jump the lead up to this rail that we built that summer, We were so excited about hitting a rail for the first time that year. That first day we all greased the rail like it was no ones buisness. The next day we most of the snow had melted and our jump was a little small so we got some more snow and lugged it back to the rail. We built up the in-run but never touched the jump, Big Mistake. I was the first to go, so my two friends grabed on to my poles and pulled them so that I could get enough speed to hit the rail. After they let go I went off the jump, but instead of landing with my skis on the rail, my head hit it. I guess my edges caught the front of the rail , which brought me face first into the rail. After that I have no clue what the hell happened. My friends said that I got up and was waking around saying ' Fucking A, Fucking A, and I think Im in shock.' Then the said that I collapsed. After that I remember waking up in my bed with dried bloody face and a real bad head ache. I had no clue what time of day or what day it was. I thought that I was on christmas break while it was actually Thanksgiving. I had to keep re-checking the wether channel to see what the day was. I couldnt remember what had happened or anything, This was the scaryest thing that has ever happend to me, I lost so much of my memory that day, but I later regained it. Im just lucky to be alive because Ive heard about alot of people who have had brain swelling from accidents like this. Its so easy just to make one wrong move like I did that day, that its just not worth taking that risk of ending your skiing year or your life for that matter. Ever since that Ive been wearing a helmet. I have a Giro 9 and their really comfy and light weight. I feel alot safer while a wear it which is good. Anyway, I suggest you should get one because it could save your life some day.

Have a good season!

 
giros are really comfy and my brother crashes a ton, like almost every jump, and his head is fine(he has a giro), i have a red(burton) helmet that serves it's purpose, it's really warm, and potects my head well

Deffinatly get a helmet, it's just dumb not to. To all the people who think helmets are gay or not cool, I hope you hit your head and die.

yep get a helmet and perfect your tricks then when you got em dialed take it off and take a photo.

sacrifice, to some its just a word, to others it is a code, what matters is the colony, he is willing to live for the colony, fight for the colony, die for the colony.

 
i wear a helmet, and im god

Being Irish, I guess I should resent the Notre Dame nickname 'The Fighting Irish.' After all, how long do you think nicknames like 'The Bargaining Jews' or 'The Murdering Italians' would last? Only the Ironic Irish could be so naively honset. I get the feeling that Notre Dame came real close to naming itself 'The Fuckin Drunken, Thick-Skulled, Brawling, Short-Dicked Irish'
 
While some thing helmets are gay, i don'

t. i have one, and it's saved my life so many times it's not even funny. I hit a rail, got almost to the end, and then my skis slipped nad i hit my helmet on the rail. that hurt even with the helmet. Skiing through glades also helps. i've been closelines by many branches(and trees) before when skiing through the thickies. and during jumps, if you miss your trick, a helmet won't guarantee your health, but it's a hella lot better than none.

WA skiers are cool. I'm a WA skier. I'm cool. You know, Washington apples are cool too. . .
 
yeah man, definately get a helmet, there was a kid up at big mountain that died two years ago. check out the carreras or k2 helmets.

maybe coz you have a gay helmet. i reckon helmets dont look that bad, you sound alot like a poser who never goes big enough to need one.

Hey NeverHard,you really seem to like me a lot. I don't see why you need a helmet at all. You obviously never use your brain anyway.

helmets don't look gay unless you have a gay one.
