Helmets

(1/5) > >>

Now then,

I have been using full face for the last couple of years for racing and at the park, i have been totally against the whole piss pot thing due to fact i like my teeth.

But what i have been finding, now i am riding ramps more, is that thay can restrict visiblity some what, i found this out on the volcano at Charlton and wiped out due to not being able to see down properly.

So whats the deal folks? What are you using and why? Any recommendations?

PS did anyone read the paper yesterday? 13 year old killed doing a bunny hop off a kerb landed on his head after taking his helmet off and giving it to his brother  :-\

Ross, I dont like piss pots either. Always wear my fullface. I have a 661 and find the field of view okay.
Would rather not wear it, but i slammed hard at Rom a few sundays back hit both hands and my chin on the floor at the same time. Chin is fine, hand is broken. If i had been wearing a piss pot, broken jaw or a few teeth missing.

I love my full face lid.  :smitten:

If it's good enough for Mirra....
