"Concussion preventer" - Review of Bern Macon Hard Hat Helmet w/ Visor Knit Liner

Rating for this product: 5 By coocoo on March 2, 2008
Snowbird received 20in of blower overnight last night. Super good turns, ect. I went to send an air that I've hit at least 10 times this year -money take off and landing.. Except the landing had slid, exposing a hard bed surface. Of course the landing is blind, and I didn't realize it until I was in the air. I tried to stomp the landing, as I hadn't set my self up for a hip check. I backslapped a 40 foot air so super hard it wasn't even funny. My head was catapulted backwards into the bed surface incredibly violently. The helmet performed amazingly. Every other helmet I've owned (Giro) would have left me with at least a moderate concussion. Instead, the Bern seemed to absorb 99% of the impact- I hardly felt a thing. The helmet didn't shift at all; I felt like my head was coddled in cotton balls. The tourists at the bottom could not believe I skied out of such a violent fall. Thank you Bern, I'm sold.
