    Those old helmets sure last a lot longer than the new ultra lightweight foam ones don't they?

    The word is that Christian is considering adding a 30 foot tether to his ensemble to complete the look.

    There are other choices...

    For instance, a very large Steel Carabiner on the end of the 30-foot tether would really up the GAME!

    For the "real and authentic" look, he will need to install more holes in all his gear. Like most, I participated fully in the "light is right" revolution in gear. So it was with the expectation of changing to the lighter helmets, that I started trying on many models. This is when I found that all the lightweight ones I tried fit like crap. I suppose I might have a big "head." I am on my 2nd old heavy helmet. When I inquired how undermined the first one was with a crack on the rim, I was told that it was VERY undermined. And a new helmet showed up in the mail courtesy of one Hank Moon. I hope I get to wear this helmet out too. BTW it is great for filling water anchors with water.

    Wrong thread. A whole bunch of these that can be deleted if someone has the ability....otherwise, I'll see how many I can replace.
