How in the world did you ever get Carl's helmet to fit? Must have been like wearing a five gallon bucket on your head. :P

I just had to wrap a sweatshirt around my head, and it fit pretty well...:lol:

So wait, did you like it?


Yeah, I liked it. I like the Rockman I already had, other than the fact that it sits so high on my head. I just use it now when I'm shooting video. But the Roc is rather comfortable. I just have to figure out how to fab a bill onto it....

Now...I've got this figured out. Anybody want to place an order? Two to three day wait time. Custom improvement on what is already a well-known helmet...Carl's getting one for his birthday, but y'all don't say nothing.;)

Yes, but can you turn it sideways? A swivel mount is in order.
As a custom modification, I can install the bill on either side or the back, if desired. For a small additional fee, I will install a combination of bills, (different colors, if desired), as many as four, for added sun protection all the way around. Gotta keep the customers happy! :D

'Nother words you wear your helmet over a cap? What kind of helmet do you wear? The Roc will fit over my cap...but I won't win any fashion awards for the look.:/:
 
It doesn't look that bad. That's with the Roc. I haven't worn it underneath in a while. I use a Vertex now with muffs, keeps the ears warm. Might go back to the Roc in summer with plugs.

I'm wishing I'd gotten white already. I can tell the red's warmer in the hot sun...and it ain't even hot yet...:cry:
 
Hey Willie, how do you like that full brim hat that you have in your avatar? I have been wanting one of those for a while now. I am slowing transitioning to old school and that hat might be a perfect fit for me.
 
Holy smokes, Scott. That picture just had me laughing out loud here.
Haha.

I use the Pacific, It's rad. Maybe 6 years now,
Before that I wore an old Skateboard helmet, before that it was a ball cap.
