BigM 2 #1 January 13, 2004 Has anyone seen these in hand? Wonder if they are useable for skydiving? They are Snell certified so should offer more head protection than normal skydiving helmets. Thoughts everyone?

mr2mk1g 10 #2 January 13, 2004 I saw the seccond one in a snow boarding shop. Quite a nice helmet, good quality workmanship and looked ok. Its basically a delux version of a protec (much better looking mind) so I can't really see why it wouldnt work fine. I've also seen crew guys wearing something very similar.

jerry81 10 #3 January 13, 2004 Is that an integrated holder for the goggles strap on the back of those helmet? Looks like a built-in snag hazard to me, although it could easily be filled with silicon or or some other moldable material. Otherwise, the design looks quite cool.

Goggle strap holder, but that snag point is easily taken care of if you were going to use it. "When I die, I want to go like my grandmother, who died peacefully in her sleep.

goose491 0 #7 January 13, 2004 I don't like the looks of the tops of those guys... seems like a good place for a line to grab hold and not let go. Probably to hold ski-goggles? If you could shave 'em, you could use 'em. My Karma ran over my Dogma!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
