x-lrg climbing helmet advice?

[jimmylad]

Hi all.

 

Firstly not sure if this is in the right thread so apologises if it's not.

 

Does any one know of a climbing lid that is of a larger size? I have a stein one and it was great but having dreads its now simply to tight. My ground lid is great but of course for climbing I need one that fits the job. So does any one know of any that are suitable for folk with a large head?

 

Cheers

The stien/kask lid is too small for me, but the petzl is much bigger, with more room for adjustment

The stein helmets are quite small.

My recommendation would be the new Protos helmet available in three weeks from Clarks Forestry. 👍

Yeah like the Predator!!! An Arnold Schwarzenegger film from the late 80s for all you youngsters!

Cheers for the comments and advice all.

 

Am afraid a hair cut is out of the question (am already on my 3rd set of dreads now), however am sure that there are many that would love to perform a re-spacing operation or dead-wooding sweap on my head but for now the dreads are staying.

 

Hopefully I'll get to try a petzl this week, failing that I may have to try one of these protos lids.

 

Looking like the predators leaner brother could only be a good thing yeah?!?!?

 

 

Thanks all

My mate had the exact same issue. The petzl fit perfectly.
