A while ago, while i was snowboarding, ( 2nd year) i was pressured into hitting a jump i couldnt handle. When i was going down the hill, i knew it was a bad idea, after i hit the jump, i flew foward do to my boar catching edge. I fell on solid ice, breaking my arm, my helmet, and almost my nose and goggles. Wear a helmet, unless you feel risking your life over looks is what you want to do.
@techdeck8899 wow bro - that sounds like a pretty bad spill. im assuming the helmet caught some of the impact of your hit - possibly saving your life.
@johnnyalonso1 ouch. a broken helmet is a sure sign that your skull would have been cracked. my son took a nasty fall a few years ago and the first think ski patrol looked at was his helmet. it wasn't cracked, but we spent the rest of the day in the hospital making sure there wasn't any damage. hope there were no serious problems as a result of your fall, and thumbs up for your warning about peer pressure.
I used to think helmets were gay. Today I walked my friend home who had no clue what his name is. We were longboarding. He is in the hospital with a skull fracture. He has a chance of dieing WEAR A FUCKING HELMET
I use to think helmets were lame, until i knocked myself out when i tried to do a rodeo. So now i wear a helmet all the time, also now days you feel like an odd one out if you dont have a helmet. HELMETS ARN'T LAME
@outlawracer2229 dude its no joke. me and one of my friends would both be dead if it werent for helmets. completely different incidences too. there is no reason not to, unless you cant afford one but at that point spending your money on a lift ticket is retarded
@outlawracer2229 yea right??? like that one douchebag andy finch who refuses to use a helmet after he "broke three of them...(and)...do everything to not hit my head..." what kind of answer is that?? some role model
@johnnyalonso1 Andy's a top athlete, so calling him names is kind of pointless. I disagree with what he says, but a lot of people say the same thing. It's worth listening to and making your own decision. As far as athletes being role models, that's way overplayed. You can admire Andy or any other celebrity without taking everything they say as gospel.
@GerryPallor youre right, man. calling him names is pointless and juvenile - i apologize for my comment. yes, he's a pro athlete and we agree to disagree w what he had to say. but the athletes being role models and you saying that it is "overplayed" bro, i have to disagree. the impressionable will follow. its always been like that. either way, didnt mean to leave such an immature message - again, sorry man.
@johnnyalonso1 I can't argue that athletes are role models to lot of people. Some athletes deserve to be emulated, some don't. But you're right, it is the way things are. No biggie about the name calling, I delete the comments that are totally offensive. I accepted yours because most of it was well thought out, which is the type of commentary I hope to inspire with my videos. Thanks for participating.
ya when i was 8 i was skating my friends rail and my helmet was on but not strapped and i tried it and i slipped and my helmet flew off on impact. T hank God
Ur smart man.. a helmet will definitely make u crash and not wearing a helmet will keep u from crashing. hope u hit Ur head and go brain dead and think about this comment and learn Ur lesson bitch

Snowboarders should wear wrist guards too - broken wrists are the most common injury in snowboarding.

dkeeveswow1 made this comment on this video that I accidnetly deleted:
if anyone knows where they are i would like to know because the lodge in the back looks very familiar i may have boarded there.
To answer him, the clip was shot at Belleayre Mountain in New York.
