My ridercoach had an old shoei that he made a cutaway in. It's pretty cool. He also had two samples of polystyrene from two different helmets. One manufactured in 2004, one manufactured in 2010. They were kept in the same environments, and one was incredibly stiff, and one was relatively spongy. He showed us this to prove that helmets DO go bad and DO need to be replaced. Really cool guy

A vast and echoing void.

With a couple of moths fluttering about.

As always, excellent post, Hernan!

What a cool suggestion this was! "A helmet crashed hard enough to deform the liner should be retired. They make great lampshades."
