Hanson Helmet resizing

Recommended Posts

Your best bet is to call craig hanson. I haven't seen his ads in Parachutist in a while, but find an issue a few years old, and there will be a 1/2 or 1/4 page b/w ad. He's a really pleasant and helpful guy.
When you buy the helmet kits new, they come with the expansion foam (also available at any hardware store), the padded felt lining, and a video of how to put the whole mess together. It's a fairly time consuming and messy process, but well worth it if done correctly. I must warn you though, ripping the old foam out from the fiberglass shell is not much fun.
The key to making one of those helmets fit right is the initial shimming process, oh yeah, and a lot of patience.
If all else fails, call up Sunshine Factory. They still sell the Hanson Low Profile. Maybe they can put you in contact with Mr. Hanson.
Good Luck
