... - outside of the Protecs, none of the skydiving helmets offer any real impact protection - there's simply not enough padding.

What if you install an after-market padding kit from Oregon Aero?
Kits are available for Pro-Tecs and one popular full-face skydiving helmet.



Hey, Rob - I knew of the OA kits for the Pro-tecs, but didn't know about any others - thanks for the info.

Like you, I want the best possible protection. That said, it seems a full face helmet would be a good choice. I am surprised to hear that most helmets do not offer much impact protection. Which full face helmet has the best protection capability? Thanks!

None of the full-face helmets are going to provide as much impact protection as a Pro-tec with upgraded pads.
