    Default Pro Tec SXP helmets

    I just got my b2 helmet in yesterday with the fancy sxp liner for multi impacts and such. its shiny and nice but my only problem is that it has such a high profile on my head. i wasn't sure which size to get being that my head was on the borderline between large and medium so i went with large and now i'm thinking i should've gotten medium. it's a little loose...

    so my real question is. how are the sxp helmets from protec supposed to fit? loose? snug? etc.

    I had the same problem and honestly I dont even wanna wear the friggin thing.

    I got this helmet 2 yrs ago for the winters in NJ and cause it had speakers and an IPOD hookup and it fit awesome! but it was just over $100

    PRO-TEC - SNOW -

    Now I just got

    and it's big and goofy. I also got a large. They said all the shells are the same size but padding is different sizes. I wanted to return it myself and get a smaller size but instead they sent me out different padding.

    I think this is going to be my last pro-tec. I might try out the triple 8 next.

    EDIT: the snow helmet is solid as a rock!!! no joke..
    The skate helmet is flimsy as ****!! I can bend it all over the place by pushing into it just a little.
    How does that even make sence?

    ugghhh yes. i mean im all about some safety but that's exactly how i feel about it, big and goofy. i got the same one as you just black. so now you're using the 2 stage foam liner?

    guess i won't be sending it back for a medium if all i'm gonna get in return is one with even thicker foam.
