#1) Why Should I Trust the Virginia Tech Testing Methods?

The Virginia Tech Helmet Lab has been conducting helmet efficiency expriements for almost 10 years. They have tested and rated helmets for many impact sports including football, cycling, hockey, snow sports and whitewater sports. Many helmet brands for these sports have redesigned their helmets after Virginia Tech released their study results.

#2) What Makes Virginia Tech an Expert When it Comes to Equestrian Sports?

Virginia Tech has spent two years watching over 100 videos of riders falling off of horses. They then measured all aspects of the surrounding enviroment such as the hardness of various riding surfaces. Once Virginia Tech felt they had enough field data, they took the helmets back to the lab for rigerous testing in a controlled enviroment.

#3) What do the Ratings Mean?

The Virginia Tech ratings determine which helmets are most likely to reduce concussion risk. More stars mean the better protection in a potential case of impact.

#4) What does the STAR Score Mean?

This is where it gets a little confusing- STAR stands for "Summation of Tests for the Analysis of Risk" and the STAR score is calculated on a helmets performance in a series of impact tests. A helmet with a LOWER STAR score offers better protection against concussion. The STAR scores are then assigned a number of stars between 1-5, with 5 stars being the best. In simpler terms, the STAR score represents the average number of concussions a rider would likely get using a particular helmet model if exposed to 30 impact falls.
