Why it matters in Southern Utah

Slickrock is unforgiving and many Southern Utah descents are rocky and fast; eMTBs also reach speed sooner. A trail helmet with extended rear coverage is the minimum, and a convertible full-face makes sense for Gooseberry ledges or Brian Head's bike park. (Editorial.)
