hunter81 0 #1 July 2, 2015 Trying to buy either one of these as a gift for someone who is a free flyer. I am new to the sport so any suggestions would be appreciated. She currently owns a couple year old BH so figured she'd Iike another one. Also considering a cookie fuel. Any input from some free flyers out there who have tried any of these helmets or know anything about them would be great. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pobrause 6 #2 July 2, 2015 to know what her goals are in skydiving might be more important in regards of choosing a new helmet... they are all 'freefly friendly' for what its worth they all CAN be the perfect fit for her Does she want to use a cam, which one, mounting options, cutaway, maybe she wants to try a fullface for her next helmet, the fit of the different helmets may vary immensely, colour choice... A helmet is a very personal choice and not really fitting as a surprise present. Either she expressed her wish for a certain new helmet (model xy, sice xy, options xy...) somewhere in the past or you risk wasting money... I'd highly recommend figuring out what she wants prior to buying a new one.------------------------------------------------------- To absent friends Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit: are you sure she really wants a new helmet? Or is this just a guess? My helmet is seven years old, and I don't need a new one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tred 0 #4 July 2, 2015 I tried on my friends pimp daddy when I was looking for a helmet. I ended up getting the cookie fuel witch I am very happy with. your gonna pay more for the fuel but it is way more comfortable (IMO) and has a lot of options for add on's ( chin cup, visible audible, go pro mount) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hunter81 0 #5 July 2, 2015 Her current helmet is too bigl for her making any video she does do very hard to shoot. She has told me she likes the wind on her face and has no interest in a full face[reply Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
