Comments about WRSI Current Helmet Without Vents:
This is a great helmet at a reasonable price. I've taken several hard blows to the head in this helmet and it has kept me safe. It's not the sexiest helmet on the market, but it does exactly what it's supposed to do. You can customize the fit by inserting thicker or thinner pads. The fit system is not perfect, but I mananged to get a pretty good fit.

Paddled in the rain and the lip of the visor proved to be an effective drip gaurd. Hardly know it is on, very light and comfortable.

Comments about WRSI Current Helmet Without Vents:
I use this for whitewater kayaking. It's cheap and fits the best while offering the best protection!!! Covers the important head parts and is amazingly comfortable and with the Velcro pads u can put under the liner pad the fit is perfect no matter what hear shape you have and keeps the sun and water out of my eyes. Spend some time getting it to fit great and enjoy the safe feeling and comfort!!!

Comments about WRSI Current Helmet Without Vents:
Seems like a good helmet that would protect well. Padding shims to adjust size are difficult to install - this is a poor part of the design. For the price, I'd like to see a better system for the shims (or at least detailed instructions for installing them).
