If you wear a helmet and preach to those who dont - Will you please STFU and just get on with what you bought your helmet for in the first place...Skiing/boarding.

"The fact remains that the risk of such an injury remains too small to insist that everyone on the slopes must wear a helmet. It should remain your personal choice at the end of the day...." (The AMA)





Amen to that.

Agreed, I haven't told anyone they need to wear a helmet, just pointed out that skiing has gotten more extreme in the last 10+ years, and a helmet does make more sense now than before.

Tony, the contrarian comment was meant in jest. Maybe I should have said you like to talk Shite ) Anyone who's favorite movie is Pulp Fiction can be all bad.

Ah, but would he tax the beany first or leave it in the crate? :wink:
