Poster: A snowHead

Very clever chinguard on these.
If any of you have tried these, how do they fit? Most interested to hear from Boeri, Leedom, Red, or Jofa users who take large sizes (>60cm).

comprex, what are they? (yes, I know helmets) I'm curious and can't find them online.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

David Murdoch, I think skibits.com show these under their protective gear page. The manufacturer is Mivida? No place for me to try them in the US and I really like the thought of that chinguard design.
As I've explained in some of the other helmet threads on this board, by the time the foam fits around my head, the outer shell is quite often larger than a basketball (I take XXXL in Boeri 'snowboard' helmets and only 'L' in Jofa). A quick-release chinguard would be quite a convenience in packing the checked luggage.

comprex, I see what you mean. Pretty nifty. How often do you expect to need a chin guard though? I've ended up not using mine as it doesn't seem to enhance safety and does slightly reduce airflow when breathing very heavily!

mesk1, thanks, I had forgotten to check there.
David Murdoch, not for freeskiing, sure. That is (sort of) my point really, and there is something psychologically comforting to me about a chin guard for the club slaloms. Repressed memories of indifferent skiing and indifferent dental insurance plans, perhaps.

Bump to check if anyone's used these.
