buy a size to big, if it still dosnt work also take out the padding, you cant really use a long beenie, so you'd have to fold it to make it fit, but it'll work
buy a size larger than necesarry when fitting it on your bare head. i dont really want to hear any safety police "oh mannn, wear it hows it supposed to be worn you fucking trend whore, wearing it like that defeats the purpose of having a helmet!!!!" ive crashed onto my head hard enough for a concussion many times had i not been wearing a helmet, and was fine for the most part.
Wash your head in really hot water, then tumble dry yourself on the highest heat setting for about an hour. It should shrink your head just like it does my t-shirts.
nooott true, its so much warmer and more comfy when you just take out the pads that are there for comfort rather than saftey and put a hat under it with your gogs
last year i just took my protec skate helmet and removed the velcroed padding from the back. worked great for rails and woods, probably not so great for actual impacts.
ya the bern beanie liners are super comfortable, i just wish there was a good way to listen to music w/ the beanie liners, for ex.. super comfortable bern beanie liner tune ups?..
The padding in a helmet is not what protects your head, it is the styrofoam type substance that the helmet is made out of. They are made to crush on impact thus absorbing the blow. If you want to wear a beanie instead of the padding go for it. Just make sure the thing sits on your head correctly. No slopping around, not too high on your head.
k2 rant= ugh i have one and dont like it, WHAT i did see and like now is the giro olenick edition buuut ive got this rant and guess ill have to go with it unless someone wants to trade and get ripped off. ha.
having goggle gap on purpose has got to be the worst idea ever. First off, your forehead gets cold. Second of all, by definition, you are a gaper. Good work.
