I 
never really considered that a helmet wouldn't protect from all head injuries 
until my personal experience with this.  I have come off of the horse that 
caused this injury in the exact way she did (off to the side and landing on my 
back on the ground), but I had no obstacles to smack the back of my head 
on.  When I came off on this horse, we were trail riding, he passed some 
gas, it made a noise that scared him, he spooked and I ended up on the ground, 
flat on my back looking up at him.  
 
Also 
remember, that when you have a crash, get your helmet inspected or just spend 
$50 and get another one.

That's what scares me about the new Range Rider helmets, they 
seem to leave a lot more of the back of the head uncovered.  While I'm sure 
this is cooler, I'm not sure I want that much exposure.
