Dear NS just wanted to share this with you guys. I was skiing some little trees and caught an edge and was thrown headfirst into a thick juniper. Here's the aftermath. The crack went all the way through to the foam too.

So NSer's, please wear your buckets! You never know what's gonna happen.Stay safe, and happy holidays!
 
amen to this. dented my helmet kinda bad a week ago... probably would of had a concussion if i wasnt wearing it
 
you ride bachy.....cause i could understand if you fucked your helmet they set everything so big. and least you were wearing it!
 
My friend hit a tree around this time last year while wearing a helmet. He suffered brain damage and had a bad concussion that he still is dealing with a year later. Pretty sure he would have died if he hadn't been wearing one, it's gnarly.
 
agreed. caught an edge yesterday landing a jump in the park and wiplashed real bad. head hit the ground pretty hard but was wearing a helmet so only have a slightly stiff neck.
 
Mouth guards are actually much better for a crash like this, if you're not hitting your head on ice that is. Wear a helmet and a mouth guard if you can and you are almost guaranteed a brain injury free season!
 
i know somebody that was skiing trees fell and his helmet shattered doctors and ski patrol said i he didn't have a helmet he would of most likely died
 
i need to start wearin a mouth guard. i have a terrible habit of sticking my tongue out in the air. Have almost bitten it off twice already this season
 
The helmet is a must. I'm still nursing a stitched up lip too, so wear your mouth guards when you send it! You don't realize what your teeth are up to until you bite yourself. It hurts so much to eat which SUCKS when you go home and can't enjoy Mom's cooking,
 
I recently got a BAD concussion while i wasn't wearing my helmet. According to the new guidelines for my concussion (i passed out and had a seizure from it) im out for 6 months :/
