Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
I'm the guy who broke out some teeth on his booom late thursday at third.
My thoughts: jumping while hooked in fundamentally constrains the distance
your face, or you, can get away from carbon/aluminum tubing, so you don't even
have to crash to get hurt.
My question, though, is regarding helmets. I went by Helm to check into
full-face helmets for the big days, and the Primex helmet, even in XL,
hurts to get on and crushes my ears. So I am posting to this group to
ask if anyone knows of a good full-face helmet and/or where to find
it in the bay area, preferably on the SF penninsula. Comfort is key. I guess
I have a huge head.
Thanks in advance.
Chris.
