Would you trust your dome in this?

Well, according to the stashkit website, it is only designed for use up to 12 mph. It says that "the helmets conform to the stringent international safety standards and performance tests," whatever that means. No, I would not trust my noggin to that thing. :shock:

I wonder how one is suposed to ensure the idiot who hits you is going less than 12mph? what about the guy using "The Stash" who flies through the air on his skateboard. It probably only takes a drop of 10 feet to accerate beyond 12mph. Who's gonna put one of those on their kid?

Not for me! I mean, why not be super-cool like some of those long haired ex-racer fools who frequent the AR trails then have a bit-bucket that won't do the job?
