I bought my helmet in like 2000 and it’s a pro tech and its made from this wicked light firm foam stuff and I notice all the new helmets are made now from that cheap stuff that bike helmets are made from and its twice as thick looks stupid feels weird. I think its just a way to cut cost I m not giving up mine its built the good way! Maybe I m crazy

Yeah I got a pro tech (pretty cheap one) it makes my head look like a mushroom so I look super cool going down the mountain...
Who makes those ones with the visors?

ok the newer helmets may feel funnier... but theyre SAFER.... a protech helmet from 2000 is basically plastic molded in the shape of ur head with not much padding...

i personally think the helmets that have foam that can crunch a little and come back up under your thumb are safer. i got a concussion yesterday in my bad lt. and i was wearing a thin hat underneath for extra padding.

giro flint sc is what I have, it's durable, looks sick, has a big visor and a good vent system. I'm very happy with it but have had it for too long and need a new helmet soon I think, for safety purposes

i agree with the lack of comfort in some newer helmets. i have a giro 9mx and it fits well, but there isn't much soft padding inside. on warmer days i wear an old school protec skate helmet with a bandana underneath...the protec has like two inches of soft foam padding and is super comfortable. when skiing big mtn i wear a full-face troy lee designs helmet, which is also super comfortable and light.
