Head First: Why Every Ride Deserves a Helmet
A helmet may seem small — but the impact of not wearingone can be life-changing.
In this episode, we’re joined by Jen Lundberg of the WILSFoundation and Dr. Richard Ingebretsen of the University of Utah to discuss why helmet use matters — from skiing and snowboarding to bikes,scooters, skateboards, and micromobility devices.
