Title: How not to use a Helmet.
Post by: langer17 on June 08, 2011, 09:38:42 AM
I think it's safe to assume that this is how NOT to use a Helmet.

Ayrtek's from September 2011 produce a forcefield thus removing the 'injury factor' all together. They will not stop at anything to enforce safety standards and raise the bar. In the footage above, the injury occurs due to a 'lesser' brand who have not taken all of the safety procudures and happenings into account leaving the poor, innocent cricketer in great pain. If you wish to end cricket related injuries such as the one seen above, then please, be sensible. Buy and Ayrtek.

No we wont be looking to go back to a traditional design when we have proven that our design works with the features we have incorporated. Things need moving forward not stepping backwards.......

We are producing a product range to go into the shops at a more affordable price point for everyone. With materials technology in plastics now very advanced we will of course be using the most cutting edge materials so that you get maximum protection with minimal weight still.
