re: Helmets

I would consider myself a good snowboarder after boarding for 16 years now. I had an accident in Pamporovo last year, following a good accident resulting in me suffering with a broken nose, twisted ankles and a swollen brain I would not ever go with out my skid lid!


I was a lucky one!!!

re: Helmets

Me and the kids wore them this year- noticed quite a few with "Lids" on- daughter took a fall with a bang to the head- good job she had a helmet on!

re: Helmets

Sorry to hear about your accident Aaron. Did you have your helmet on when you had your accident?
I'm glad your daughter is ok Ian.
Def wearing my hemet when I go now! Might see you there Justine, we are staying in Flora apartments.

re: Helmets

Suzzane, how long are you there for and how many of you going?

re: Helmets

ski helmet saved my wife yesterday when the safty bar on a 4 man lift came backdown on us as we were getting off.
without the helmet I dread to think of the damage it would have caused.

re: Helmets

Oh Suzanne, why didn't you buy a helmet with speakers, then you could still use your ipod

re: Helmets

There was one of those with headphones in for sale on ebay the other day! It was dirt cheap too as I know they can be quite expensive, I put a bid on but then asked if it was a male or female helemet, turned out I'd need to change gender to wear it so stopped bidding!
Yet to find one for men!

re: Helmets

i wore one this year better safe than sorry and there warmer than a hat...

re: Helmets

Rob, mine is an Arnette and most definately for men. It may be a boarding helmet but it will do the job for me. Also the earpieces come out so you don't have to have the speakers in all the time.

re: Helmets

Wear a helmet it will be the best £30 you will spend.
