When we started skiing many years ago, few recreational skiers
wore a helmet. They were just for
racers; indeed we didn’t wear them ourselves.
And then we went to North America in 1997 where it was compulsory for
children to be “lidded”. We suddenly saw the obvious sense in it and became “early
adopters”. Fast forward to 2014 and we rarely saw anyone skiing or boarding
without one. As Mr B can still reach
speeds of 50mph, it’s incredible that this simple safety measure took so long
to become embeddded. That’s why chairs in the mountain huts have helmet hooks…………..
