Snowboarders- Helmet question

Greasy · 01-07-2009, 12:38 AM

I actually think that NOT wearing one saved me from hurting myself today.
I was riding at park city... it was just on some random double blue (i was sticking to double blacks all day) that was covered in powder and the visibility was terrible. I wasn't paying attention, and caught an edge. I flipped backwards, springing off of my head basically. My dad was behind me and said he saw me flip 5 times...

I think if I had been wearing a helmet, it would have hurt my neck. Instead, I was stuck with nothing more than a nice little headache.
