Is it true that a passenger is required to wear a helmet on a snowmobile at the berry? I am over 21. Don't want to mess up my hair.[crazy]

Never heard that before. But years back at the berry I was loading machines into an inclosed trailer and was one legged kneeling on the seat. I caught the spring on the top of the trailer. Without a helmet I'd be dead! Who do you need to impress with your hair while ice fishing. Wear a helmet, glad I did.

I think any passenger under 18 needs a helmet, I'm quite sure!

Aside from the law wearing a full face helmet on a snowmobile is a great way to keep your head warm. At near 0* and 50 mph your face takes a beating. It is infinetly more comfortable with a helmet on. Also 3 weeks ago I was flying out of Chicken East hit a bare spot, the sled jacknifed with my Eskimo ice house behind and flipped dragging me across the ice with it. I had a helmet on and walked away dazed with bruised ribs. It could have been worse. 2 things happen in this world, your either makin dust or your eatin it. [signature]

who cares about the law. be sensible and safe and wear a helmet. you wear one skiing, wear one on a machine. just take a comb and some gel for your hair and get all dolled up after your ride

Missed Toadly's 'contribution' but I can guess.
I'm a fan of helmets - period. I could post a picture to show you why, but it would get edited, even though it's real. And I was just on a Bicycle - took a face plant - literally. I can now profess to having part of both of my ears on my nose. Looked like a Salvador Dahli or Picasso artwork for a while. My mum just had to tell herself "catchup" when she saw the photo. SO - can I still post goofy kitty pictures before the lock? Somethings just aren't worth the risk! [inline 119.jpeg] And - since this isn't a fishing report, or even directly fishing related - wouldn't it serve to be moved to the off-topic board? Just curious - don't care.

I asked my brother if he used a helmet when he road. His answer was, "Once....but I wear one every time I ride." I got a good laugh at that, but it raises the point; 90% of the time you are not going to need a helmet, but the one time you do you better be glad that you did, IF your not happy you were wearing one it would probably be a good idea to get a catscan. Being dead isnt worth being "cool" or "first". Be proud of helmet hair!! [:p]

Found a helmet you might like.
Helmets keep your face warmer and can look cool! Plus keep you head from unnecessary injury. Please be safe out there. [signature]

People who are worried about messing up their brain (head) wear helmets.
People who worry about their hair don't. Natural selection is a beautiful thing. [signature] |
