they are about 50 punds and a skate helmet is about 25. THis is only an issue because i will never wear one again.

Go get a Giro nine.9. They are way stylie, and warmer than a beanie. They are also way lighter than any skate helmet.

do what works for u, it'll work the same, i'd just make sure a beenie will fit underneath the skate helmet so my ears don't get cold, apc makes some tight helmets.

the giro nine is the way to go. but mine was looking funky with oakley a-frames so i threw a visor on it. light as fuck, warmer than any hat. i used to have a racing helmet in high school that made me never want another helmet, but the nine is so good u forget that ur wearing it.

calgary is damn right. i wouldn't hesitate for a second to stick my dick in a hole thats been between a girls legs for 20 years. even if it had been worn and sweated in several times before and left on a french shop to dry out. word.

Polar opposites don't push away
It's the same on the weekends as the rest of the days
And I know I should go but I'll probably stay
And that's all you can do about some things
I'm trying to drink away the part of the day
That I cannot sleep away
Two one eyed dogs, they're looking at stereos
Hi-fi Gods try so hard to make their cars low to the ground
These vibrations oil its teeth
Primer gray is the color when you're done dying
I'm trying to drink away the part of the day
That I cannot sleep away

What's the helmet that Dave Crichton was sporting?? It look like a solid hard shell, and had a brim......
