Is the sentence carol enjoys rollerblading so she bought a new helmet a complex or compound or simple sentence?
This sentence is definitely not a simple sentence, because it contains two complete clauses.

For the old-fashioned, it should preferably be reworded as "Because Carol enjoys rollerblading, she bought a new helmet."
