Ok so a week ago, i was riding and smashed my head on the ground really hard. I got a concusion, but was wearing a helmet. Everything on the helmet seems fine, but i was wondering if i'm going to need to replace it because i hit my head so hard

1) Gear talk
2) I forgive you
3) Depends some are made to take multiple impacts some are one hit wonders
4) I'd get a new one, it's worth it to save your kaboodle.

If I were you I would just buy one from someone on here for cheap. Better than smashin your head and having it worse than a concussion next time.

what kind of helmet is it?
im going to take a chance and say its bern. not only that but it says hard hat on the back of it. if so, youre all set. they are made for multiple impacts. however, i would go get a new helmet if that is the case because... well... read the warning label. its just a hard hat. it isnt actually a helmet.

I would talk to one of those people on backcountry.com they seem to have their shit together in regards to the stuff they carry.
