here we go again. a bunch of people will come in here to say that they'll make a big difference, and a bunch more will say that they don't help at all. from my experience, they help a lot in preventing concussions, but don't completely prevent it from happening. i got a concussion trying 3s w/o a helmet and got a concussion. i put a helmet on, fell the same exact way (slamming the side of my head on the water) and didn't get a concussion. i did get a concussion with it on, though not nearly as bad. there are a few good helmets to buy, including protec and shred ready.
