I am looking for a somewhat cheap and good full face helmet for a first time down hillier . any ideas guys. I was also looking at the Six Six One Evolution Distressed Helmet anyone got that one and if so how is it? I have heard good stuff about it so far :)
 
i have the specialized deviant. no complaints here. its comfy, not too hot, has a good field of vision, and even nice to use for x/c rides on real cold days in the winter.
 
Fox Rampage helmets are nice and comfy and protective. Plus their nice and cheap (money wise).

I know right. Like this dude for example, he asked me how his ear looked.
and I was like: "Holy f**k, theres a stick - sticking out of your head."
He was like"Pull it out"
and I was like"No way dude, you'll bleed to death"
he was like"Lets go get pliers"
I was like"Yea, pliers"

Now I wood have never been able to share that cool story if he didnt have a hard head or was a wimp.

Yeah, I am pretty amazing, thanks for noticing that. A lot of times I will do something totally badass and no one is around to witness it, times like this I just slap my helmet and say "you are so badass" a couple of times in a really deep voice.
As for you grumner80, should you ever get a stick lodged in thoust skull, please feel free to PM me, I would be glad to bring over my pair of most sacred stick removal pliers which I tooketh from FFT's personal tool box, and remove said stickith from your dome.

deeply apreciated!! :D

...but watch out! if FFT finds out you took his custom "stick-in-skull" remover pliers he could come after you! :2guns:
 
Bell Drop is a good choice - the best helmet out there for the money -
MSRP $130 and meets the new ASTM Downhill Standards - I've tested it too!
 
helmetsup.com full face dot approved for 60 bucks. They are a bit beefier than the most DH specific helmets at half the price. I have one and love it.
