It’s a medium-long story but this shows the results of my latest forays into breaking things –
You can see that there is something sharp and deep that extends right up to the crack line on the helmet. The crack travels from about 9:30 in this picture to about 4:00. In the real world this is right over and behind her right ear.
You should also notice the smoothness of the helmet above the crack and the really bumpy part below which is a perfect relief of the loose rocks and asphalt in the gutter of the road – would’ve been her ear and noggin.
The best part is that The Wee One is just fine, with only a scrape on her elbow and a few small raspberries
on her back and side AND she got back on the Big Wheel right away.
This helmet is garbage now. A new Nutcase is on the way.
