    Not in the Midwest, but usually anywhere else yes. Mind as well. Plus I'm more confident in the park when I'm not afraid of getting anymore concussions.

    <----- yup, helmet
    I'm 33

    first couple of months I didn't but that's because I was a bit oblivious when starting out... started wearing one before my first "out-west" trip and haven't looked back - wouldn't ride without one now... honestly i don't even know it's there... i actually find it comfortable... i think finding the right one that fits right is half the battle...

    Started this year, we make all of our kids wear them, so I started as an example.  Wear the RED Hi Fi.  It's very lightweight, I was afraid that it would be too cumbersome, but honestly most times I don't notice I'm wearing it.

    I'm 39

    riding through trees, smacking my head after not quite dodging the branch ahead of me, and smacking my head some more on some rails (idk how that happens) has given me more than enough reason to wear a helmet...
    Although sometimes I wish i could just wear a beanie.

    I am 23 and I started wearing a helmet a bit after I started learning this year. It has saved my head from nasty blows several times and I will always wear it no matter the conditions.

    After being slammed into several times by idiot snowboarders and skiiers, my helmet has probably saved me more than i can count.
