Hi Guys,


I did a little research at Dicks Sporting goods online. There is a large variety of helmet catagories to choose from. Baseball, Football, Lacrosse, Hockey, Bicycle, Skate boarding, Rollerbladeing, and then your Motorcycle helmet and the good old American Hard Hat.

Which makes the most sense? Who knows, maybe the helmet you feel covers the old noodle the best or maybe its just the one that matches the color scheme of the latest Racer. All kidding aside, I think the number one reason for a good helmet is not so much for the possibitly of an accident during a race, because I think the odds of that are pretty high. What I do see the greatest potential use for the helemet is for the newbie racer or the excited, adreneline charged pilot who just won a heat as he walks out to pick up his bird and a deadstick bird comes in for a landing. This is the time when the race is over and your guard maybe down as you hurry to retrieve your plane and the silent plane is coming in for a landing that an accident could occur.

I am leaning towards the Basball style helmet because it has a visor and covers down pretty low over the back of the neck. I just need to find one that fits, beccause they lie when they say "One size Fits All". LOL........
