I remember reading that those skid lid type helmets don't do anything at all actually.

A full face helmet is more structurally sound and it also stays in place. That tiny chin strap on a half shell helmet will not keep it in place during a hard a wreck. Some people don't realize how violent a real crash is and the forces involved. That little half helmet will rip right off before you even hit the ground.
