Poster: A snowHead
|
Finally got a helmet this year, after a few close calls. What's the best way to take it on the plane? I've seen people with them dangling from their Rucksacks, is this ok? How can I stop it getting bashed about?
What about the suitcase option? Not sure it would fit, and I don't really trust the baggage handlers to be gentle , but do I have much choice?
I'd rather it be in one piece when I take a spill and bang my head!
Cheers

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

I put mine in my rucksack to give it a bit of protection and then stick the breakables inside it. It's inside the hand luggage restrictions and packs easier that way than trying to fit it in my holdall and leaving it to get squished by the baggage handlers.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I wear mine on the plane. I find if I fall over enough as well I manage to get a couple of seats to myself.

Just fasten it to the outside of your hand baggage rucksack. But be careful. In my experience there's nothing worse than a damaged helmet

Just stick it in the middle of your suitcase and stop worrying. Ask yourself: if the helmet is that fragile what use will it be if you fall over?

I put my goggles inside it and take in in hand luggage.

I stick it in the middle of my hold bag and surround with clothes.

skiskool, I do same as most people here. Goggles and prescription insert inside it, and then stuff the rest of the space with socks. Middle of hold bag surrounded by clothes. Seems to have worked pretty well so far.
