Hi guys,
Having recently qualified, I'm trying to wring the dregs out of my student loan to spend on shiny kit. I still need to buy pretty much everything, but a helmet comes pretty high up on the list of priorities.
Unfortunately for the aforementioned student loan, I'm also a paraglider pilot, and it's high time I bought a new gliding helmet too - obviously, the ideal would be to get one which I can use for both sports. The problem? I want a full-face helmet for paragliding and an open one for falling out of planes with. The solution (perhaps):
http://www.plusmax.de/products/helmets/plusair.html
Plusmax sell a removable chin guard to convert this 'un between full- and open-face, and market it as suitable for pretty much everything. Although they say it's a skydiving helmet, I haven't been able to find any mention of it in forums, online shops etc. Does anybody have any experience with the helmet, or opinions on whether it looks alright for skydiving?
Any thoughts, ideas or ill-informed speculations gratefully received,
Jamie
