lightweight and stylish

Reviewed by Spion, 2009-02-05

I needed a helmet because you have to have one to ride a bike or waveboard on base. After a bunch of reasearch and trying to read other reviews, I decided on this one because i did not want a normal looking bike helmet. The rubber coating on the outside is very smooth and it looks good too.

Pros:
-There are multiple air vents (11 of them total) to keep your head cool while riding.

-The sweatband material absorbers that cover the inside of the helmet are easily removable via velcro, which makes for easy washing when they get too dirty.

-Thick foam on the top for protection.

-Does not move too much when properly adjusted and does not sink down into your field of vision.

-Accomodates glasses with no problem

Cons:
-The price is a little more, but it isn't that much more than comparable models/styles. Depending on brand its about 5-10 dollars more.

-Size, I wear a 7 1/4 hat size and I ordered a large. The size chart says that it should accomodate up to a 59cm (7 3/8) but it fits a bit tight.
7 1/4 is approaching the limits of comfort.

I would recommend this helmet to those that wear the size listed. Hopefully I will never have to see if it will protect me from a split skull or concussion, but if I crash I will post an update.
