xxguitarist Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Wondering if anyone here has the POC skull x, or pretty much any other helmet, and can compare to either a Pro-Tec skate or specialized M1 bike helmet (M1 fits me great, Protec required some modifications) The memory foam on the skull x sounds comfy.. any input?

dredman Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 I have about 6 days in my new POC. It is light, quiet, good peripheral vision and fits well. As far as what it compares to... I could only compare it to my Giro Ravine or Giro Mad Max. The sizes run true. Use a good soft tape measure but do not pull it super tight around the thickest part of your head. I really like the helmet and would recommend one if it fits well. Price is a little steep but "if you have a $10 head wear a $10 helmet."

xxguitarist Posted December 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I can get past the price, aforementioned specialized helmet was comprable... in that case, I paid the extra because it in particular fit my head, and it is extremely well ventilated. Hows the memory foam seem to do for comfort, and does the helmet become too hot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinecure Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Are the POC helmets more for round melons or oval melons? Either way none of them have enough ventilation for my tastes yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dredman Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 I would guess I have an oval head...not severely oval but generally oval. The POC fits me very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
