At the very least, it saved me from a traumatic brain injury. I was going downhill on an electric skateboard when the brakes failed. I was going far too fast by the time I realized what was happening, and I tried to run it out. I made it about 3 or 4 steps before I went down. Hard. I put my hands out to facilitate a roll, and I did roll, while also BOUNCING my head on the pavement 3 times. Right side (and broke my collarbone with that first hit), backside, left side. I ended up with a broken left thumb, a VERY broken right collarbone, road rash on both shoulders and both hips, and ZERO injuries to my head or brain. The helmet's skin also has severe road rash from all 3 hits. I am certain this helmet saved me from a TBI, and may have saved my life. WEAR A FRIGGIN HELMET, PEOPLE! This one looks pretty sleek, not dorky like a bike helmet, and the value of NOT having a TBI is worth having a sweaty head. Better to have it sweaty than bloody... Go to Youtube and search "Session error: the rise and risk of electric skateboards" and also "The Moth presents Stephanie Perirolo: Walking with RJ for a dose of the reality of what recovering from a TBI is like. WEAR A HELMET! Wear pads, too! My elbows and knees were fine because I had pads on. I also had "slide gloves" on my hands, but they're not designed for hard hits to the ground, so I got a broken thumb, BUT no road rash on my hands or fingers.
