OK. I hope this will not open a can of worms. My helmet has a snell 2010 date. Is it good for this year? How long is it useable.
-
Helmets with SA2010 or SAH2010 cert are good through 2021. See rule 3.A.2 :cheers:

Thanks MRK. Didn't think to check rule book.

On the helmet subject I noticed there are now snell 2015 helmets. Any idea how long these would be good for? Would it make sense to buy a 2015 rather than a 2010?

Yes

I'd say 12 years ( 2027 ) going by the standards posted in the current rule book. Snell along with most major helmet manufacturers suggest replacing your helmet every 5 years due to "material degradation".
