Freestyle Good deal on a 661 helmet!(posted here cause not everyone reads the good deals sec.)

No problem! Got mine on Monday. Seems a little big though. Don't know exactly how tight it should be, but I can get it to move up and down pretty easily. If I hit the chin piece on my ski, the helmet would rotate up enough, so that the chin strap against my neck would be taking the force of the impact.
How easily can you slide the chin piece up?

Great helmet! Much better than the moto helmet I was wearing before.

Turns out the helmet actually fits me well! It's an awesome helmet, so light. I don't even realize it's on, and you have a wide range of view, which is nice when there's a million boats around. And it looks sweet!

Find me another one of these at this price! I threw one out and I'm on my second one from 4 years ago. It's about to let go and needs replacement.

I like the Fly racing F2 carbon, longish visor is helpful riding back toward the sun.

Drains okay and keeps my head, face, and teeth safe. The metal bits have held up in salt+fresh for 2+ years now ... I do give it a good rinse after salt riding and a blast of Zorb enzymatic deodorizer.

After checking a few bike shops this week I'm tempted to design my own setup for the straps. I keep burning through 60-100 dollar helmets every two years. But I also wear out life jackets and wrestling shoes in that time as well.

Might have more to do with hours on my equipment than salt?

Have you tried spraying the metal pieces with "heavy dety spray silicone". I use wd40 on my pump and such but the spray silicone on throttles and helmet straps because it doesn't leave an oily residue.
