There is a type of helmet with a lower back, generally stated for rollerblade use. Are these rollerblade helmets better than bike helmets for bicycle use?
My children tend to wear bike helmets back on their heads leaving their forehead unprotected no matter how much I adjust it. This seems to be a design problem with bike helmets. The rollerblade helmet may prevent this back riding.

Good question. Unfortunately, we are not familiar with these helmets. We do often use football type helmets to protect our seizure patients from injuring themselves, as these protect against both face and head impact. Sorry we can't be more helpful
