Awdpsi 0 #1 September 20, 2013 So I'm having a very difficult time deciding on which helmet I want to but and I've become stuck between these two. I can see the benefits in both of them but have only been able to try on the cookie as I do not know anyone with the REvolve. I liked the cookie but I've heard its a noisy helmet and the REvolve has been known as not a very noisy helmet. Putting up the pole to see what everyone thinks!Belt and Suspenders Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have both and dont get enough nose clearance on the revolve A year ago I was searching for the right full face, and these were the two helmets it came down to for me as well. Since I live a few miles from Chutingstar's warehouse, I went there to try them both on. After doing so, I had the opposite problem as stated above. The G3 was nice, and it's what all the Skygods fly, but my nose is too big and touched the visor. With the Revolve, it wasn't an issue. I have been jumping the Revolve ever since and absolutely love it. Having the ability to easily talk up until you exit is a huge seller for me. Also, being able to open up the face under canopy is great. The fact that it's a full face or you can remove the cover and have an open face is a huge bonus. You can see pics of the new Revolve on Bonehead's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=604873652889654&set=pb.112199818823709.-2207520000.1380894872.&type=3&theater I don't have the funds for a new helmet, and unsure how I feel about the exposed audible mount, but I LOVE the increased visor visibility, even though the current size has never been an issue for me. Definitely try them both on if you can, but I doubt you will be displeased with a Revolve.

Everything about the G3 is awesome. No other helmet comes close. William. The D3O lining scares the bejejus out of me: " This means that the harder the impact, the greater the resistance to the force. " http://www.d3o.com/materials/ This is exactly the opposite of what you want in a helmet. No wonder no one else is using that material in a helmet...Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Awdpsi 0 #20 October 2, 2013 Yea I dont see the $500 anywhere. The new revolve did get pics released and I have to say I'm in LOVE! I can't wait until the testing phase is complete so I can buy mine. Its sleek, great looking field of view and best of all it still flips up which was my main reason for planning on getting it.Belt and Suspenders Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aws140 0 #24 October 4, 2013 strifeWhat is the $500 reference isnt it $360 on chutingstar ? I have both and dont get enough nose clearance on the revolve A year ago I was searching for the right full face, and these were the two helmets it came down to for me as well. Since I live a few miles from Chutingstar's warehouse, I went there to try them both on. After doing so, I had the opposite problem as stated above. The G3 was nice, and it's what all the Skygods fly, but my nose is too big and touched the visor. With the Revolve, it wasn't an issue. I have been jumping the Revolve ever since and absolutely love it. Having the ability to easily talk up until you exit is a huge seller for me. Also, being able to open up the face under canopy is great. The fact that it's a full face or you can remove the cover and have an open face is a huge bonus. You can see pics of the new Revolve on Bonehead's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=604873652889654&set=pb.112199818823709.-2207520000.1380894872.&type=3&theater I don't have the funds for a new helmet, and unsure how I feel about the exposed audible mount, but I LOVE the increased visor visibility, even though the current size has never been an issue for me. Definitely try them both on if you can, but I doubt you will be displeased with a Revolve. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
