In all probability, it's safer to use a helmet.

You trade the much bigger risk of the kid banging an unprotected head into something hard against the much smaller risk of the helmet getting caught on something.

In the early days of wide-spread helmet use, there were a couple of kids who choked when their helmets got entangled. But since then the clasps have been redesigned, which has pretty much eliminated that risk.
