I'm with Ebone... I truthfully feel safer without a helmet.
Only time you're really going to hit something head on is if it gusts and you're on land. Or, if you're just riding too close to shore and get pulled ashore.
When I wear a helmet, I can't see, it pushes my hair over my eyes.
Landing really hard and fast the helmet has come off my head and choked me.
I used to wear the earpieces on my helmet, couldn't hear crap. When I took the off I'd always sustain the only head injury I've ever gotten from a watersport, water in the ear really hard.
I feel safer without a helmet... I try not to ride close to obstacles, and if shit hits the fan... *... just promise to play "highway to hell" at my funeral.
*At this point I had to stop because some trashy people came into my work... lady flipped out because she wrote a check for the wrong amount and she blamed me for it. :lol: It was hard trying not to laugh at her when her and her business partner started yelling in the store then the business partner ran out, then she wrote the check wrong and said I gave her the wrong price...
