Do you bake the whole helmet?

[Deuce 1]

I haven't baked my Bat rack liners yet, and I was told to put the whole helmet in the oven and then put it on. Yeah, the guy was serious.

I've heard others have baked the whole thing, what are the pros and cons of this technique?

Granted, it doesn't specifically mention the batrak, but I pretty much remember NOT baking my batrak shell, just the liner. I would think if you baked it and deformed it too much, the clam shell might not line up right, and the thing might close funny.

I personally had great success, shimming, shimming, shimming, and baking just the liner.

Dude, don't bake the helmet...just the inside.

You can bake the whole helmet on a Mindwarp, Optik or Gunner. All other BH helmets you bake the liner only.

Just make sure your head is in it when you stick it in the oven for that "glove" like fit
