  1. And it only gets worse when you leave the convention hall and realize you're in Dallas.

  2. I didn't see a thread for various gear: I have a garage full of helmets, and just got another one this last month, but looking at this, I'm not sure this would be too bad for Texas? https://www.pinkbike.com/news/kali-unveils-new-lightweight-full-face-invader-trail-helmet.html

  5. Never considered full face until folks on forums started talking about them more often. I'm certainly considering them now. FYIW... This came up in my FB feed two days ago... Interesting to compare results with prices. https://www.helmet.beam.vt.edu

  7. Just like the comments in the article, I think that both sides can be argued. The one time I face planted with a half-shell I broke my nose, but luckily it broke in a manner that fixed my deviated septum, something I suffered from my whole life. I've been counting my blessings ever since though, and if I'm practicing drops or jumps that take me out of my comfort zone, I'll wear a full-face. Likewise I wear a full-face if I'm doing gravity type riding. I'm still willing to take my chances with a half-shell for my every day rides and don't see that changing any time soon. I drink from a water bottle on most of my rides, and wouldn't want to stop and remove my helmet each time I need a drink. Also, my prescription sport goggles wrap around my ears, and it's a pain in the ass trying to get a full face on while keeping those in place. Of course if I end up smashing my face those will seem like lame excuses, but each of us just has to decide what chances they are willing to take. In this sport, depending partly on the trails you ride, serious injuries are a very real possibility regardless of the level of protection you choose.

  8. The number of gears has little correlation to number of teeth knocked out.

  9. I had a slow speed crash on Windy Loop, and happened to hit my face/jaw on a log at the edge of the trail. Freak thing, but I wear fullface all the time now.
