As an equestrian, safety should always be a top priority when it comes to riding horses. One essential piece of safety equipment that every rider should own is a riding helmet. But how often should you replace your riding helmet? It’s a question that many riders ask themselves, and the answer may surprise you.
According to industry standards, it’s recommended that you replace your riding helmet every five years or immediately after any impact or fall. Even if your helmet looks perfectly fine on the outside, it could have sustained internal damage that compromises its ability to protect your head in the event of another fall. Additionally, as new technologies and designs emerge in the world of equestrian helmets, older models may become outdated and less effective at providing adequate protection.
