Hello to all the members of this beautifull forum.I'm David and i living in Italy on the dolomites (Arabba).
I would like to ask you a little bit strange question......I would like to know which is the official red bull helmet of freeski athletes.This questions because sometimes i see some athletes whit total blue,black ecc... red bull helmets (ex:Markus Eder,Paddy Graham ecc...) and some times i see these athlete whit blu-silver helmet.
What is the official red bull helmet?
Thanks to you all and i hope answers.

There is no official helmet for Red Bull athletes. The athletes have their helmet sponsor and then the athletes send their helmet to an authorized Red Bull helmet painter to have the helmet transformed into what you see them wear.

In Europe, Casco makes Red Bull helmets but they are cheap garbage and not worn by any of the athletes.

Thank you for your answer,but i don't want buy a Red Bull helmet.
My question was referred to the Red Bull official colours.I have seen that most of male athletes (ex:Sean Pettit,Markus eder,Richard Permin.....) are wearing Red Bull helmets in total colour blue or black,
on the contrary i have noted that the female athletes use red bul helmets checkered blue/silver.
Actually the officially Red Bull helmet is it total coloured in blue or black ,or checkered blue/silver?
Thanks for answers

you already got your answer... there is no official color, the athletes pick a design, it gets painted on, then the red bull logo over that. thats why every athlete has a different color, theres no official color.
