October 7, 201510 yr Managed to launch myself over the handlebars on Sunday and landed on my napper. I felt my head hit a rock pretty hard but it wasnt until I took my helmet off and saw the damage that I realised how hard the impact was. Out come - one knackered brand new helmet but it did its job as I sustained no injury other than aching neck muscles. Money very well spent and replacement Jitsie ordered!
October 7, 201510 yr That's a big hit, very lucky its so true what they say, you get what you pay for, that's why i have a Hebo carbon helmet, pay the money fell safe

Its designed to compress sacrificing its self to save your head. A second hit wouldn't provide the same amount of protection as it has already been compromised.
