Giro Switchblade MIPS Adult Mountain Bike Helmet - Full Face Downhill Cycling Protection for Men & Women - Perfect for Trail Riding, Enduro & Downhill Racing

Like everything I've purchased from Giro, this product is totally overpriced for what it is, but a well designed and super sturdy helmet, with a great internal fastening system (I have two mips helmets, one for air and another for land).Used mine for a summer of BASE jumping - it's perfect for those smart enough to want a real helmet with a full face system (most skydive/base helmets are just expensive camera mounts...). Remember, you can't save yourself after a cliff or building strike if the hit knocks you the f*&# out!! Also, full face makes sense when you realize insurance doesn't cover the $20k+ cost of dental implants to replace the teeth you just knocked out because maybe you reached a little too much at deployment and opened with a 180... (must have been the pack job)For those of us stupid enough to use it for base jumping, I recommend removing the visor as this can be a snag point. If you're jumping a building drunk, at 3am after dancing salsa for several hours on a Friday night, the sun isn't much of an issue anyway. However, the visor is the most natural camera mount, so if you want to share your idiocy with hordes of online admirers, the alternative is to mount a camera on the top of the helmet with a 3M sticky pad, which you can literally rip off in a half second if snagged. There is no quick release system like with a SD helmet, but that's not so important for the low stuff, now is it...Also, this will not be as rugged as other helmets with a plastic or fiberglass cover, so keep it on the top of your stash bag and try not to bash it along rocks, trees, or security guards along the climb to your desired exit point.
