Falling forwards going switch or a funny fall otherwise could get the helmet chin caught in the snow, giving you huge neck problems.
I'm sure it's happened before.
The one JP used to wear, the Giro one with the removable chin part is awesome.

go get a burton red full face, it was the best helmet i found but it comes with a hefty price tag so i bought the giro flint. dont bother with a bike helmet because they are designed for biking and they are also heavier

get the switchblade for biking, has a removeable mouth protector, its light, looks sick and is somewhat durable. The mouth protecter part of it could prolly take a good hit without breaking.

^ Yeah the mouth piece doesn't look durable at all. Friend uses one and it had taken some minor hits without any damage.

i mainley ski lines, cliffs ect... and last year my tooth when through my lip because a got a knee to the face, and i'm pretty sure that a mouth guard wouldn't of taken the whole trama away so i think a full face would be a good idea regardless of the neck issues

despite neck issues? ^ buy a facken mouthpiece they are 74 cents at walmart then you can just use a normal helmet instead of the best superman shit that you think you need.

Full faces make you feel invincible though. A mouth piece just makes it harder to talk smack above your choice line.

If you guys notice, seth is wears snomobile helmets or some other type of heavier designed helmet, it just has the giro logo on it. Look how think the padding is, and how the goggle straps are fake. Normal skiing helmets dont really protect much over 10 mph.

I have a buddy's old helmet, and its waaay too small. It's an XS and so it just sits on the top of my head and the mouth, or in this case nose-guard either blocks my view, or its the visor. It's really spiced things up my making basic navigation a challenge.

''Independence is for the very few; it is a privilege of the strong. And whoever attempts it even with the best right but without inner constraint proves that he is probably not only strong, but also daring to the point of recklessness. He enters into a labyrinth, he multiplies a thousandfold the dangers which life brings with it in any case, not the least of which is that no one can see how and where he loses his way, becomes lonely, and is torn piecemeal by some minotaur of conscience. Supposing one like that comes to grief, this happens so far from the comprehension of men that they neither feel it nor sympathize. And he cannot go back any longer. Nor can he go back to the pity of men.'' -my buddy, Fred
