[QUOTE="MikeT, post: 828818, member: 21398"] Not being scientific here but if you could measure the foam thickness then you would know if it compressed. Since you can't do that, the rule I use, is if you get a concussion and are blacked out, then you probably damaged your helmet. My last head impact I was able to pull the liner back and actually see that the styrofoam had a dent in it. I had a concussion and blacked out for about 3-5 seconds. The helmet I wear (BELL MOTO7) also has removeable styrofoam in the cheek areas made it easy to see that the foam was different thicknesses after the crash. You have to look real closely to see that it is compressed but my helmet did it's job. Ivan was there that day and told me to look a little closer at the helmet and sure enough I needed to replace it. BTW, I bought the exact same helmet. BELL makes good stuff. [/QUOTE]
