Title: Pro Model helmets
Post by: Buck on January 24, 2009, 06:20:46 PM: Ok guys after watching the x games Snowmobile best trick the other night and seeing the helmet I have to ask....What is your guys' take on these helmets? I know its a style that u either love or hate with the flat bill ball caps. So I figure some will like em alot and we will start seeing them at the dunes, and Im sure some will laugh their ass off. I for one am still kinda unsure about them...they are different thats for sure...

i do kinda wonder about the aerodynamics of this....would your head be whipping back and forth every time u looked up, if so dats a big nargative..on this one, but looks wise, i think they fit the new style and would go well with the baggy winter gear.
