And maybe one more thought.  Make sure the helmet you buy for yourself,
customer, or child fits and is comfortable.  Not safe if it doesn't fit, and
there is a lot of difference in comfort between a helmet brand that fits
your particular head shape and one that does not.  Different brands/styles
fit different people.

Just one last thought on helmets -

Just one last thought on helmets - there's a move afoot around these parts
among several equine publications to discourage any photos for
advertising/sales etc where the riders are not suitably attired (ie helmets)
In all future fjord promotional material, we should also consider doing our
part in bringing up the next generation to realize that helmets are just a
part of riding and driving. Photos with people wearing helmets for driving
and riding should become the norm.
