Helmets while riding street?

[RiccardoM]

But then they have all the good parks and street.

G-form should make like a slim fitting helmet type-thing like their pads to go under a hat or summet.

Never wear a helmet when filming in the streets, takes away from the riding.

 

[Jamie Gantz]

just shred hella gnar and nobody will care if you're wearing a helmet or not.

Everyone that rides street should die, Park elitists for life!

Do whatever the fuck you want, they don't look dorky at all. If you're doing ledge tricks you don't really need it, but if you're hitting downrails and sets then ya might as well do it...

This. Honestly if your out hitting tiny shit then its not really needed but if your going big then by all mean wear them. Just don't go full out Kota

Always wear a helmet, it doesn't look cool but if you land wrong it's way too easy to get concussion or brain damage or even die. Not worth the risk, I've seen a couple sketchy bails even off low rails and boxes which could easily mess you up for good.

No it doesn't lol, you're retarted. If you have a massive ass pink helmet than yeah, maybe, but if you have a normal helmet then it looks fine, stop trying to be cool.

^You spelled retarded wrong. Kind of ironic.

i know this is a bump, but i am HUGELY changing my opinion on this topic. Just got an eeg scan, and it turns out i have the brain trama/damage equivilant to a professional boxer. now i have to wear a helmet whenever i do anything remotely dangerous or i could be screwed up for life. ALWAYS WEAR YOUR HELMET RIDING STREET.

Wear it trying or practising a big trick. Never film with helmets on while riding street.
Just my opinions.

Some people wear it from the fear of being hit on the head again, which is fair enough.

 

[Travis House]

I've only ever hit my head once in 10 years and it was only a minor knock, laughed it off.

I have never worn a helmet riding, not for any other reason other than I just don't like the feel of them. You learn how to fall and you think hard about what you're doing before you do it. Those two things are most important.

There are some accidents that occur where you really have no chance to protect yourself and they are really unfortunate but it has never been enough for me to want to wear mine.

That being said, I ride with some 15 year olds that wear their helmet when we ride street, I don't say a word to them. If they wanna protect their head who the fuck am I to tell them otherwise.

Honestly it only means anything IF you are willing and ready to die at any second. Otherwise there is no point in saying it.

I wear helmets pretty much always while riding street, anyone who says its stupid or uncomfortable is an arrogant / naive asshole. If I eat shit lipping a 14 rail i'd much rather have a helmet on .. touche ?
