Just got my 5th concussion yesterday. Anyone have recommendations for a bucket that’s gonna keep me from getting more concussions and not make me look like an idiot. I’m a little scared about getting any long lasting injury’s so I don’t really care about price.

I heard sweet protection has got some beefy helmets. I’d go for the MIPS rated ones

Ive had 12ish concussions and if you’ve had a couple serious ones at this point it might be too late. A helmet doesn’t stop a concussion once your brain’s already weakened. It’ll make it less bad and stop ur head from cracking. Imo id highly recommend getting a new helmet and then finding a way to ski without hurting ur head.

the smith code/koroyd helmets seem pre beefy.

you need to stop skiing in a way that gets you concussions. If you have had 5 notable ones you certainly will have some type of affects latter in life.

I’ve had only one from skiing which was the most recent, the rest are from hockey. The first three were pretty minor but the two most recent I’ve lost memory and had lots of symptoms.
