Author: Jed HawkesSubject: HelmetsPosted: 01 Jun 2016 at 8:30am"we've been soaking these rocks for thousands of years but they just don't seem to be getting any softer". I've always made my trips wear helmets and when they ask why they have to wear them and no one else does my reply has always been; Why don't you take your helmet off and go head butt your friend over there". This has always bee...

The Force is a better boat. I've paddled both a lot and much prefer it for its handling and it's stiff floor - the Thrillseeker floor is dumb. I'm...

Author: mprussakSubject: HelmetsPosted: 01 Jun 2016 at 5:23amI don't sweat it too much if I forget, but I definitely try to wear a helmet every time, and even though our outfitter doesn't require them either I still tell customers I recommend it. No matter how unlikely, sh*t happens. I got my kayak wedged against the bottom for a few seconds right in the middle of our rowdiest surf holes, it ai...

Whitewater Forum : Helmets

Professor Paddle · Washington, Oregon and vicinity

Author: irenenSubject: HelmetsPosted: 01 Jun 2016 at 5:07amI have a big gouge in a helmet from a rock in Snowblind at 7K. Anyone falling out of a raft backwards at the wrong time could hit it. Unlikely, I realize, but even on the Wenatchee I would always wear a helmet - I'm sure that hit would have required stitches without one and why risk TBI.
