Thats exactly what I thought. If there weren't the jumps there I myself probably wouldn't wear a helmet, but while jumping I always were a helmet. However, I do agree with 3speed that a helmet is a personal choice, and if someone wants to go DHing without a helmet who am I to tell them that they can't do it. However, 3speed, I also do feel that if a person is jumping or doing something that could that easily end in a wreck (which even happened in the vid) they should be wearing a helmet and if they aren't I should at least inform them that it is much safer to do so. After I tell them that they should wear one if they choose to or not is their own choice. However, I like to think that here on the forums, we are more of a community and like to help other whenever possible, and if criticizing the OP for not wearing a helmet will get him to go out and get one and get past the stigma that (non avid cyclist create) about helmets being uncool, then I did good.
