What do you guys wear and why?

Im looking into get a helmet but cant decide what I want.

I probably need a full helmet but not to sure I want to wear a full helmet all the time on the trail.....

Just curious what works for you?

Thanks,

If you're riding single track, I'd think you would want a helmet with good ventilation to keep you head cool and/or dry-ish. I don't know much about BMX helmets, but wouldn't think they had enough ventilation. I'd get a well ventilated MTB helmet for now, you can another helmet later if you start rinding really sick stuff.

Some MTB helmets cover more of the head than others. For example, the Giro Hex covers more of the back of the head than most.
