Re: Another helmet
I saw this design a while back and decided I want anyone to be able to get my helmet off quickly and easily when I need resuscitation and not scan bar codes for instructions or fumble around whist i'm dying. Other than that its probably the quietest helmet on the planet... especially if you are dead.

Re: Another helmet
If they had a label on the front (perhaps removable if your are not caring) that clearly states 'release from the back' or 'rear release' I would love a super quiet helmet. I have images of paramedics not knowing how to get this off in a timely fashion and I don't want to try one before the emergency training memo circulates our first respondents.tbln930 wrote:I don't like anything qualified in its description as "rear entry".
I'm currently disappointed with a Nolan modular that whistles, and STILL seek a MODUALR helmet that's quiet. To date I have owned the following makes that fail my noise reduction expectations. Might have to give up modular altogether.

Re: Another helmet
I can't see that ever getting snell approval. Too much chance of it falling apart on impact. I get the idea and all, but you may as well just not be wearing a helmet at all if you went down sideways.
I won't even use modulars since they really are nothing more than a 3/4 helmet with a nice looking visor.
