it was on my tank, one of my friends accidentally hit it and it dropped...so maybe a 3 foot drop.

it landed right on TOP of the helmet...you guys think it's still safe to ride on?

 

haha my arai took a 5 foot fall on my head at 35 mph and is still good.

 

helmets are overrated.

 

It all depends on who you ask. If you ask a helmet salesman he will tell you to get a new one. I have dropped my helmets several times. One was even in a wreck and the inner didn't start seperating for over 2 years after a couple more falls.
But, noone knows the exact condition of one after a fall unless you can find somewhere to run some tests on it.

 

is it for stunting? who gives a ****, i barely where one, makes me an idiot but im just saying it can handle a 1st or 2nd gear fall, just wouldnt test it at 180 ya know"?

 

Quit hanging around with squids and come stunt with us and you wouldn't have these problems

 

keep using it!!!!! hey whats the worst that could happen??

 

but id jaw a ************ if they knocked my **** off my bike, helmets are spendy

 

well, it's not a stunt helmet...it's my street/canyons helmet. that's why i want to make sure it's still "safe" to ride on.

the guy that dropped it is a good friend of mine and even offered to buy me a new one, but i like i said, i'm not gonna make him buy a new one unless this one is fucked.

i guess i won't know until i send it to shoei for inspection.

p.s. someone told me i can run it through one of those security x-ray machines at the court/airport and see if there are any cracks...true/false?

 

Hmmm...interesting idea...I'm guessing you probably could actually.

 

Wait ? I should be worried if I drop my helmet? thats the dumbest thing ever.

 

theyr for fallin

 

As long as the shell isn't cracked it will be fine
