It takes brains to realize that you've got brains. So, get your snowboard helmet on and protect your brains from that one random face plant or missed half pipe heel grab where you land on your crown rather than your 'stick'. 'Stuff' happens even to the best of boarders when speed and unfamiliar terrain combine with the random flails of nearby skiers and boarders on a busy mountain lane.

Great online deals for snowboard helmets can be found throughout the year. Check into Ebay or look at any of the pre-season snowboarding sales where gear such as helmets and goggles and related snowboarding equipment are sold as packages.

Ski patrol accumulated data on mountain safety show that the over whelming majority of deaths and serious injuries occur to boarders and skiers alike when fatigue builds up, when an athlete exceeds his or her natural speed control point, where the pitch or slope gradient becomes suddenly extreme, or when weather conditions such as fog, snow or reduced light occur. You've got to dress for the situation, and plan against the worst case scenario in order to defend yourself from random unpredictable situations that may result in serious "head wound Harry" situations like Saturday Night Live occasionally parodies.

21 st century design and construction of snowboard helmets utilizes the most advanced composite materials. You get "brain case" protection, a light non-bulky weight at 13 oz. to 19 oz., temperature regulation capabilities plus a broad palette of colors and styles to select from.

Managing head heat is key when selecting your snowboard helmet. Go for those models which offer 10 - 12 large hole-vents, plugs as well as soft removable ear flaps which are especially important for heat regulation in the spring boarding months when temperature climb again.

Don't forget that your snowboard goggles must fit comfortably around both your helmet as well as maintain a close yet comfortable fit around your face. When buying your snowboard helmet remember to carry along your goggles so that you fit them in tandem.
