Full face helmets for downhill

A post by Pat Chewning on NCDSA regarding an accident and an injury that could have been avoided with a full face helmet

A full-face helmet might have helped prevent this type of injury to a skate brother here in Portland Oregon. He will have several painful nose reconstruction surgeries to look forward to. He got them nasty speed wobbles on his longboard and couldn't save it.
