Safety for Trail Riders...It Matters!
"Unfortunately, many trail riders don’t wear helmets–and there are a lot of avoidable injuries as a result. One friend had to be airlifted off a trail a few years ago after her horse tripped on some rocks and she suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Luckily, she WAS wearing her helmet, and it likely saved her life. The point is, putting “fashion” over safety is short-sighted, especially now that you can have both! (horserookie.com)"

I never mount a horse with no helmet on and I teach my kids the same. My fave pick are IRH helmets that are light but solid enough. The air ventilation is great so I can wear it even in the middle of the heatwave. Currently I'm using Equi-Pro Helmet like this one https://horsezz.com/best-horse-riding-helmets-adults/ and it's out of this world!
