Just an update on it Went in to college and spoke to my tutor all he had to say on it was "We only need to provide you with the basic equipment if your not happy with the equipment you can buy your own and bring it in to use.The husky helmets are more then safe to be used while climbing ill ask the head of the college if we can get new helmets but don't hold your breath" So looks like i have got no where AGAIN same old crap
