Anyone take into account that helmets float? For example, while sitting in the water, try pushing your head under water forehead first, with and without the helmet on. You'll notice that there's a significant difference. Just another variable to consider if we didn't already have enough.
I took what should've been a "lighter" back edge catch yesterday with my new protec ace wake helmet (which I love btw. fits like a glove); and my head stopped more abruptly than normal on contact. It was definately worse. Still not a believer.
