EXPERT helmet set -

 

it's this one

 

I want you to picture this in your head mate: you get said chinstrap for your lid, you then climb wearing this in a tree. You're about half way through the canopy and take a limb off with your saw.

It's one of those circumstances where it's easier to drop it down the centre of the tree, but as you do, the end of the branch brushes past you.

As it does, a twig catches in your peltor ear defender, and gives your hat a tug, pulling it off your head, but it's ok, your chinstrap will stop it from being taken, unfortunately because its elasticated it's now returning at a higher speed and smacks you one.

Bet you'd feel a right prat if that happened?! Point made, buy a proper helmet for climbing, Oregon did a cheap one

Reading the old thread it may be a good idea to cancel before its too late .the next cheapest place for what I want it buxtons, all I need is a chin strap and braces ready for starting college although what has been said on here doesn't look to bad

 

You wont be able to climb in college with a groundies helmet bud.
