Oxyfin Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 Hi guys, im just after a bit of advice, i went to buy a helmet today but cant seem to find one i like, i'm after a bowl/skater type helmet.. (i dont know what the trendy kids call them, lids or something) anyway.. ive got quite a small head so when i put on helmets they look like a giant mushroom thing that sticks out from my head. Have any of you guys found any that have thiner foam/inner, or that fit tighter to your head. i was thinking of spending about 50 quid, if i can get one i like. I tried on a small tsg, its the best ive found so far, but still looks a little large compared to the size of my head,any info would be koolcheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmt_oli Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 You most certainly do need a helmet, i hate watching you ride without one!I don't have too much experience with piss pot styles, i know craigs got a cool in between one, i think its a bell. I love my Zen, too bad a cracked it on tuesday (there definately worth it!, cracked the helmet and my head didnt even hurt). Love it soo much il be getting another!

Synergy Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 i think the zen as somebody mention would be what your after unlike the tsg helmets which just sit on yor head as it were this one pretty much wraps around your head and doesnt sit to far of the top of your nogging if u get me.

Luke Rainbird Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 TSG or Protec seem the way to go really, from experience they both seem to offer a good amount of protection with a decent look and fit to match(subtle, don't you think!)

Oxyfin Posted January 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 cheers for the info.i found some info on a helmet manufacture called headstrong.. " Headstrong announced something called "Thin Skin" technology, described in their literature as a new inner foam making the helmet significantly thinner.." found it on http://www.helmets.org/helmet97.htmalthough this is a pretty old article, and i couldnt really find any more info about headstrong product, have found some headsets and lights, but thats about it, think ill keep searching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
