[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good article “ Studies show that helmets reduced non-serious head injuries, such as minor concussions, by nearly 70 percent in the 17 seasons between 1995 and 2012. But to Shealy’s amazement, there was no change in the number of fatalities. “The question became,”he says, “Why aren’t helmets saving people’s lives?” From the somber task of reviewing more than 2,000 death certificates, Shealy knows that of the average 45 people who die skiing each year, the average fatality is a male traveling at high speed on a blue run who collides with a fixed object (usually a tree).” https://www.skimag.com/gear/50-year-stud-on-helmets-and-injury-prevention/ [/quote] Doesn't your brain move inside your skull causing injuries even with a helmet?[/quote]
