I don a helmet sometimes, but its my opinions that that in mags and videos helmets look gay. Do pro skaters wear helmets or pads, no, and pavement hurts alot more than snow. If you want to wear a helmet and ski thats great, but why stop there? You could don some wrist gaurds under you gloves. Elbow and knee pads seem nice and safe. Oh, and the hot buns things that the ski patrollers wear would fell just great when your cute little bottom touches the cold lift. Why even ski the park, that could lead to some pain. SInce you like beign safe maybe you stay on the bunny hill. In addition, i have a helmet and i only wear it when im in places that its inforced. And im not a pro, so its ok if im a pussy. Maybe you can come back at this and say " oh, i hit my head on this rail blah blah blah and because of my helmet im alive" Well, if you were good and didnt fall, there would not be a problem. As i stated before, I do wear a helmet, dont brand me as a complete idiot, i just think that at the pro level i find the helmet non appealing
