okay so i just got home from tremblant today, and we were only up there for the day and we are hit with a new rule that helmets are mandatory in the park... how many of you knew this because it pissed me off since i basiclly went to tremblant to ride the park. Is this a rule in all of quebec?

ive had two serious concussions, both times wearing a helmet (i always wear one). It is a very good investment. its also saved me from a ton of really bad headaches. i think people who just wear hats are retarded.

hahaha took the words right out of my mouth.
but I think helmets should be mandatory at all mountains, for the whole mountain. IMe and probably a couple of my friends would be dead if we didn't wear helmets.
I hit my head so hard on some ice that it cracked my helmet almost in half. I also got a really bad concussion from the same crash. all I was doing was cruising down the trail when some idiot ran into me and knocked me off my feet

Yea, new rule in Québec. But it does not affect me much because I'm used to wearing my hifi.

You're an idiot if you are riding park without a helmet. All it takes is one little incident when you're feet slide out from under you and you hit your head on a rail or something, and you're a vegetable for life. Is a helmet really THAT bad??? Most are super light now, and plenty warm.
You'll spend $400+ on skis, $250+ on boots, but you can't set aside $40 for a helmet to save the one part of your body the doctor can't fix if you fuck it up.

Why doesnt everyone chill the fuck out. Theres so many things where you can wear a helmet but alot of people dont.Its preference, dont be telling people there fucking stupid. Look at street skating, all concrete and theres less people wearing helmets. Their is so many sports where people wear helmets or dont. Its choice. If some people feel like risking it or just dont want to, its there problem.

I think helmets is a great law, im already punch drunk from fighting so anything else that can keep me safe in another sport is good imo.
