This is not specifically a helmet thread.
The published research on how helmet and concussion tests have been done is changing.
The Inside Lab is using a new machine to test the impact on the neck movement and concussions that don't necessarily happen with a blunt, direct impact.
I'm sure there have been studies about concussions from side, twisting impacts for some time but some newly published research shows a device that tests helmets and impact on a side, twisting impact.
While this is about youth football helmets, I think there is a lot of similarity on how a ski accident can be a twisting fall.
In this situation I wonder how much a helmet can do, if anything.
