Current helmets can only do so much to prevent concussions. They are originally design for damage to your skull than brain. Look at NFL or CFL players with concussion problems. A helmet does not stop your brain from hitting the inside of the cranium. A hit even to the chin or chest can cause whiplash effect where the body suddenly stops but the mometum carries the floating brain forward hitting the inside of the skull and bruising it.
