I dunno, does Vince ever wear that drilled helmet in comps? That can't be too safe. I doubt they check to be honest. With regards to the Pro-Tec lid - I was under the impression that the reason it doesn't meet safety standards was because it has foam in it. So in a big collision it doesn't actually do that much. But in your everyday low-impact knocks from trials etc it's actually better because there's more cushioning. Something like that. Either way, if you want one have a look on eBay
