personally i'd wear it, but its totally up to you man. i the guy in my MSF class said it took a fall from like 5 feet onto cement to ruin a new lid, but i dunno.

all them helmets at MSF have been dropped, banged, head-butted, etc. from at least 4'...yet they still let people wear them...

if you are concerned, send to manufacturer to check or bust the xray machine...

if you aren't concerned, then just wear it.

there's truly no way to diagnose from the internets...

personally, i've dropped my helmet, got my head knocked by a closing garage door (the old skool crush kids type door), and banged it on numerous things, with the helmet being more than 5 years old....am i concerned? IDK, never thought about it.

thanks for all the responses. ya i am thinking it is ok. i checked it through and through and it seems good. It hit at the top where there is almost a plastic loop on top of the helmet, its reall hard to explain i guess but im thinking it looks good and its better than not wearing one for sure. I may go through the x-ray though! thanks folks!
