Review:
Well I’ve had one of these bad boys for 2 years now, so its time for a review on it! Being mainly into Freestyle I like all other Freestylers spend a major amount of time on or under the waterline! So this was my main reason for buying the helmet!

Getting up-close & personal with rocks and trees is all part of the joy of our sport! It however doesn’t mean we have to look like a daft idiot with a pot strapped to our noggin for safety! The Stutter as many people will still say is one of the most stylish on the market.

It’s lightweight and extremely strong & will take directional hits rather than just glances with ease whilst not being a one hit wonder helmet like a Bicycle helmet.

The helmet can only be worn one way for the specific reason that the straps weren’t put in the right place to do so! The technical reason behind it though is that the straps at the back go at a shallower angle than two way helmets so that when you hit big water the load is transferred to back pushing the helmet forward and down stopping your helmet being ripped off along with your precious noggin. How kind!

You'll notice two way helmets ridding up more often than a one way helmet, which to be honest no matter what you're doing isn’t a good thing!

The fitting in the helmet is very comfortable and very stable, with 4 Velcro fire-ball fit pads which can be positioned around the inside to make it more secure and comfortable.

These helmets are quite expensive, but you pay for what you get in this case and a lot of effort has gone into producing these and the quality is excellent!

Love your head; then buy a decent helmet!
