Ok, thanks everybody, Got enough data now. Sample size was 101. Preliminary results are: 90% of climbers own a helmet But only 32% of climbers wear their helmet all the time. The most popular reason for not wearing a helmet was that it was "not required all the time". By far the most popular reason for wearing a helmet was concern of rockfall Climbers have a lot of issues with helmet design. The top 4 things wrong with helmets are: 1) Too hot (41.7% of climbers) 2) Dorky/Ugly looking (37.5%) - we are so vain. 3) Awkward to climb with (36.1%) 4) Uncomfortable (34.7%) I'll try to get them on the ACA website over the weekend so you can check it out in detail.
