Mountain Boarding Helmets

Mountain boarders are amongst the smartest extreme sports enthusiasts in our opinion. There is no doubting that some of the tricks they perform and runs they take on are very dangerous and require a lot of guts, but mountain boarders often kit themselves out with very good safety gear to minimise their chances of getting hurt.

Mountain boarders use their arms a great deal to keep upright when taking sharp corners, or breaking the fall when they bail as their feet are strapped to the board. They often wear wrist guards to help prevent sprains and fractures. They also often wear knee and elbow pads, and even spine protects to provide extra support and protect against back injury.

However, probably the most vital bit of kit that mountain boarders thankfully often invest in is a decent mountain board helmet. Hitting a tree at 30+mph without a helmet is not very good for you to put it lightly. If you don’t happen to be wearing a helmet and your head makes contact with the rock solid tree, then you’re at real risk of skull fracture and brain damage. This is why mountain board helmets are literally life-savers, and for a very reasonable price you can protect your brain box whilst having fun on your mountain board.
