Frank

And how skate boarding helmets look like this...

my question is


WHY!?


One clearly has more ventilation

So why have less holes?

And it's more aerodynamic too!


So why does the skate boarding helmet look like that?
AND WHY DOES IT EXIST IN THE FIRST PLACE?

Answer
Well, the skateboarding helmet is probably designed more for protection and less for its aerodynamic ability. Think of it like this, who goes further more often without crashing, the biker or the skateboarder? Obviously the biker. Skateboarding will expose you to injury very very often, whether it be a scrape or something more serious like a concussion. While biking you don't really have to worry about accidentally falling or hurting yourself, at least not that often. Biking helmets are more of a just in-case precaution to make sure you don't sustain any very serious injury, if god forbid you do get hurt. Oh, plus - less ventilation on the skateboarding helmet means more protection.

Does your bicycling helmet's color match the color of your bike?

I bought a new red bike and a blue helmet. Now that I've spent a couple of days looking at it, I don't like the colour mismatch. Should I exchange the helmet for a black or dark-grey colour?

I care what colour they are: I want superficial chicks to know that I know how to style. Angela -- are you hot?

Answer
I think it's a good match as it is, but then again what do I know. If you don't like it then go with a black lid. Black matches everything.
