Better Helmets™ is committed to changing the sports industry

"You miss 100% of the shots you never take"
 - Wayne Gretzky

Opportunity

We are on the verge of a major change in helmet technology for high impact sports such as hockey, football, skiing, and lacrosse.  

Learn more as we prove how new helmet shapes, helmet parts, and specific energy absorbing foams can dramatically reduce concussion injuries that are prevalent today.

We will work with helmet testing labs to revolutionize helmet performance standards and create a new class of concussion resistance far exceeding industry norms to date.

Once this revolutionary technology is in production helmets - the old-technology helmets will be history. The same held true for outdated infant car seats and cribs in the past.  With the creation of safer products, the old were no longer acceptable.

Numbers

• Every year in the US, up to 3.8 million sports concussions occur 
  
• 1 in 10 concussions result in loss of consciousness
  
• A Canadian study of 20,000 junior hockey players revealed 3000 concussions per year!
• On average, every 4 minutes, another Canadian is concussed
  
• 85% of sports-related concussions go undiagnosed
  
• Experiencing identical impact, youth suffer greater injury than adults
• 47% of high school football players in the US suffer a concussion each season; 37% of those report multiple concussions 
• A third of all youth get at least 1 concussion before they graduate from high school
• Est. >95% of people in N.A. live within a 1 minute walk of someone who suffered a sports concussion 
• Many concussions result in mild to severe ongoing problems, some lasting a lifetime
  

Features

We will create superior helmets for concussion reduction.
