Do they make a helmet specifically for water?

[crashhamilton]

I am looking at a Thor force carbon. Dennis Kirk has these listed as a helmet for watercraft, but thor does not. I don't care about the cost, but I do want to get what I pay for, protection, performance and durability being most important. I ride in the ocean mostly. Any info much appreciated. Thanx

i am looking for a helmet too and i think a better choice over a motocross helmet would be a downhill bmx full face helmet. they are smaller and lighter and dont seem like they would take in as much water

Slutty uses a white water helmet and I believe that my next helmet will be something similar.

pro tec makes a wakeboard helmet for those that don't like full face

it has nice ear guards too

however
i have a nicely displaced nose from mine not being full face , but it is a nice light helmet

One question on the Cascade helmet.. Does the cage come down low enough to protect your mouth/teeth?

Someone once told me I had a purdy mouth (not sure what they meant:icon16: ) and I want to keep it that way. But seriously, I have busted my lip about 4-5 times and I would love to prevent that.

Yes I believe so PM Yamaslut.

Pro Tec also makes a full face helmet that works great and hold up good in the water, I think it's for BMX

Yes ,I run one of those

yeah, the cascade has very good protection (but anything can happen) I love the light weight and the fact that it weighs the same wet as it does dry.

yep, it's made by cascade. I use a cascade lacrosse helmet. It's the same helmet with a different cage.

The Bell Bellistic is the best for the money for a BMX fullface, superlight, lots of vents and for $79 its great

I ordered this though, still BMX weight, its not a motocross helmet so it doesnt way a ton when wet. Its quite a bit more than the Bell but I spend $600 on my Arai streetbike lids and $450ish for my dirt lids so I dont mind paying 200 to protect my noggin
