Guner VS Mindwarp

[adamjenner 0]

I was just wondering if anyone got the new bonehead guner and if they found it better or worse than the mindwarp? it looks like a 'smaller' helmet but it costs a lot more (especially for us canadians)
any input on the guner?

thanks

I sold every one that I took to Rantoul. The are light, very quite, comfortable, have an inside pro-track pocket on each side and look cool.

Conclusion.....GET ONE !!!

I second what nightjumper said. I like mine a lot. other then being really comfortable it knocks a good amount of sound down, perfect for loud planes

Well, I haven't seen one in person, but it seems like they've at least fixed the style problems from the last two editions of the mindwarp.

However the switch to the metal "seat belt" style clasp is a big minus for me.

It was one thing on those rubbery z1 helmets. At least no one was going to try to mount a camera on them. But people put camera mounts on their boneheads all the time.

Try this experiment - close that metal clasp, then put it under load (simulating a snag of sorts). You will not be able to release it.

Then again, most folks going camera will hopefully use a chin cup as well.

That's funny since it was one of the items that the people that bought them liked. I guess it is a personal preference thing.

OK, tried it and it released. Have you actually tried it?
