Which Vest & Helmet Do You Rock?

[Kennay]

I think I got mine for about $100. Well worth it given the number of times it's saved me from my carbon "pole pad". Find a local sports store that's clearing the Lacrosse helmets off the display to put out the hockey helmets - you should get a decent discount.

We don't really have any sports stores around here aside from Dick's. All the little guys have packed up and moved.

How much are those damn things though? I saw one at Dick's SG, and I can't rememeber the model, but it was like 190 bucks.

60 bucks new on ebay

my face surgery to fix my last two accidents where the bars came through my bmx style helmet was over $1200 with insurance

That is a good way of looking at it! lol

I've seen Demon's face. It appears they did a good job. Not a great job mind you . . . :splatt:

Depends what price you put on your face and teeth.

funny, i meant when I come up it seems like water stays in my face and I gasp for air a lot more than if I had no helmet.

Bell bellistic with a10 vest or overtons pullover conditions dictate which vest

It actually floats but not as much as a normal vest none of the vests we wear are made to stop you from drowning esp. In the surf This is why you ride with a group of people that you trust to watch out for u
