Do wear a helmet sport climbing?

safety first

After watching my hair ends dangle on the ground whilst being upside down, I don't even lead climb indoors anymore without a helmet. And I guarantee I am the only adult in there at Rockquest wearing one. I'm such a goob, but that's okay.

better a goob than a vegetable

hopefully you'll have to wear your climbing shoes in on the approach.

I only wear a helmet when exposed to a swing hit on a lead fall but all the time on a Trad climb

i always wear a petzl roc helmet. they are light, comfortable, allow for excellent breathability, and are extrememly durable. i have always worn them on my hardest sends, and i always drink pepsi cola to refresh myself afterwards. pepsi and petzle...the two p's. probably the most protective measure you can take to prevent forest fires and death.

You should put cool stickers on you helmet then people will be so distracted they won't notice you are bouldering at Ray and Michelle's with your petzl roc helmet on.
