I've been using a standard skating helmet type situation but am looking ahead to when I'll need a full face helmet. If anyone has any recommendations on helmets they like or tips for buying them let me know, it would be much appreciated!

New olders has the cheapest, good enough, full faces around, if you're under 45 mph I'd say get one!
TSG all the way.
@Liam Morgan Blocked Me TSG just chose money over lives. The original designer pulled out of his deal with tsg to warn people the construction will change for the worse. New olders you will at least have a extra 100$ to put towards medical bills. S1 is great in all ways, preditor is good, tripple 8 is good but ugly.

Can you provide a link to that? I'm not doubting you, since companies typically choose money over peoople - I'm just interested in seeing it. I'm not even sure who originally designed for TSG.
@Zach Maxon Agh I only saw the post since it was reposted a lot on insta. I can't find it again.
@Ethel Moore no worries! I appreciate you taking a look for it. I'll be on the lookout for it, too. Shame that they're choosing money over people - I'll get my safety gear elsewhere now
@Zach Maxon it's MRTN.CH on instagram. Hopefully more of the info like what he put up gets on here so it's actually accessible long term.
@Matt Needs Wheels thank you! Just read through most of what I saw from Martin.CH and TSG's responses (which were pretty weak). I agree, I think this stuff needs to be posted somewhere like this, in an archival way.
@Zach Maxon so what happened with Martin.CH and them?
@Teplitzskate glad you asked! I've been reading through and writing up a TL;DR for it haha.
That's all of it! I recommend finding @mrtn.ch on Instagram and checking it out. It's the first post on his profile, which is public. It's a bit spread out, but worth the read. There's more info/commentary there from Siegrist that really adds to the discussion. Tons of support from the community, too.
Overall, it's pretty obvious that TSG, while they have the certifications to back the safety of the Pass 2.0, care more about money than using quality materials in their products. Yes, fiberglass and carbon fiber can be a real pain to work with, but they're definitely used in helmets for good reason. TSG just wants to save on labor costs and not have to worry about buying PPE for employees.
For $200 shipped you can get the safe TSG
@@bobby4900k For future viewers bobby4900k is refering to the pass pro (not pass pro 2) as the safe tsg
