Useful ways to use your Lid when not skiing?

Well, at least it's got us all laughing about helmets instead of fighting about them :D

I'm not too sure though if AnyMol2's liner is for using the helmet as a hanging basket or for Jastem's cereal?

Ally


Or to throw up in. :mrgreen:

Ha! I wish I knew! I had to roll over to get my skis out and my friends couldn't believe I managed to smack my head, but I did hear the sound of helmet hitting something and my head bounced off sharply. I fell soon after I dropped in off-piste. So closer to the tracks snow was probably shallower, also it used to be quite bumpy there during our snow drought. Went to see an ostheopath this afternoon as the stiffness hasn't gone yet.

Not sure what to do with the helmet. Is there some sort of convention to get a new one after the one you've got has been tested?;) helmet is totally fine and i should probably stick with it now that I know that it works..:)

Luckily the skis stayed on as if I also had to put them on in tigh-deep powder I would have probably broken down:) Anyway, I continued skiing but my neck was killing me by Monday morning, still very sore and stiff. Quite a bad whiplash, but head is OK and I am glad that there are helmets as I would've probably had a concussion on top of whiplash.


Glad to hear you are OK but confused, what did you hit your head on in powder that deep as nothing hard :?:


Off thread :wink:

4 more sleeps to my first trip. :-) and whats all this third trip nonsense :roll:
