Answer
The applications of science have made many sports safer. Better shoes, padding, helmets, training regimens, lighter packs, campers that have modern conveniences, better bikes and more styles of them, skate parks that use physics to allow amazing stunts, fiber optic cable and satellites that allow sports from many nations to be available at the click of a remote (which is also a product of science,) and on and on... Compare an old wooden bow versus a modern compound bow and how that has affected archery and bow hunting? Composite materials make boats better, and equipment lighter and stronger. How many hockey players have kept some teeth due to helmets, shields etc.? Do modern parachutes look and act like those used in 1918 or 1944? How many versions of a sports drink do we need, or does our current understanding of hydration based on science produced a real market for a real need? High school sports officials use lightening detectors at many events to prevent participants and players...weather forecasting (the science of meteorology!) has improved (but still misses a lot) and can help in many circumstances with campers, hikers, and going to away sporting events during bad weather seasons. Better to ask "how has science failed to help us in recreation?" That question would create a project and new products and maybe make someone wealthy...

I'm looking for a helmet that won't make me look doofy?

Just got a bike, any suggestions? I like vintage things, indie things...ahah. Just to throw that out there.


Answer
Newer helmets protect better, weigh less, ventilate better, and look much better than the utilitarian helmets of the past.

You can get skate-style http://www.xsportsprotective.com/bike-and-skate-helmets.html , futuristic looking road, and beefy looking mountain biking helmets and all are very comfortable as well. Take it from someone who's destroyed 3 helmets: if you can find one you like that works, great but wear a helmet when you ride.
