This just goes to further my case for my "Helmet Makers Conspiracy theory." You see, they have you convinced that you only buy helmets a couple of times in your life. But really you buy so many more.

The crux of my CT is the question- why do you need a different helmet for different sports? For example skiing- why can I not wear my hockey helmet without being shunned by the rest of the skiers? Why is there a different helmet for biking and skateboarding?

Now they are trying to sell us $1000 helmets. Mark my words- the helmet makers are trying to take over the world.

OK, maybe not take over the world. But it is interesting why we need so many of the dang things.
