Model/Year: 2012 Gloss Black

Pros: Light
Plenty of Vents
Fits well

Cons: Would like the pads to attach more securely.

Recommendation: It is a nice light BMX style lid. Does its job and isn't an oven to the brain. The fit is snug but not overly tight. My one Complaint is that the pads have very small velcro pieces to hold them on. I would buy another one if this one gets damaged.

Pros: everything

Cons: the padding inside is already starting to fall apart.

Recommendation: helmet works great, and i can attest as its saved my skull about 3 times already! my only gripe is that the padding inside is already falling apart(after 1 month use), fox does provide 1 extra set with the helmet though.

Pros: Lightweight, doesn't have a seperate outer shell, good coverage comfortable chinstrap, excellent price!

Cons: 12 vents but they don't ventilate very because they aren't channeled to exhaust vents, dents easier than some other helmets (dented helmets are more prone to crack or even shatter on a second fall)

Recommendation: This is a very good helmet for dirt jumpers and trail riders, it offers more coverage than most standard skate lid type helmets and is lightweight, the only comlaint is the denting, however the foam used is extremely strong when put under force...but its better to ditch a damaged helmet than risk damaging your skull.

Pros: I love the style of the helmet. Mine is a Camo color. Very lightweight. Affordable price.

Cons: Not as ventalated as I would like.

Recommendation: I took a hard spill and conked my nogin hard. Not realizing till I got home I had smashed the front of it. The shop suggested I didn't use it anymove. On my second one now and gives me the piece of mind I am looking for.
