No helmet required here. I may skip a jacket, I may skip gloves, I may skip armored pants. I never skip a helmet. The only piece of equipment designed to actually save your life. the rest just prevent scabs and broken bones.

Not entirely true. A lot of fatalities are due to internal organ trauma, and an airbag jacket/vest greatly reduces the chance of that, so yes, it can also save your life.

I'm honestly surprised they haven't caught on more than they have. It really is an ingenious invention that greatly improves your odds of survival. I'd say it would come in a close 2nd to a helmet.
