my sons bought me a new SUOMY helmet for xmas. this helmet is not snell rated but caries the " BS 6658, TYPE A " certification. does anyone know if this helmet will be allowed or not? everything i have been able to find out says that this certification is more stringent then the snell certification.

DID YOU CHECK THE RULE BOOK??? I'M STUCK IN THE OLD WORLD AND THOSE ARE NEW TO ME...

Here is some info on the helmet rating (copy and paste)
