That's the scariest part... when you "feel fine" most people don't want to make a scene by going to the hospital... I probably would've been tough about it too unless I could feel something was really wrong.

Regarding helmets... I've skied since I was 5 and never wore a helmet...but I think it's a lot easier to learn when your a kid and lower to the ground... for an adult just learning, I think it's definitely a good idea to wear one bc that's when you are at most risk for falling.
