Forma Helmets
« on: March 22, 2011, 07:35:25 PM »

I see there has been some interest in them and even the suppliers have had trouble getting one for me

I have found the place to buy them if anybody is interested

Wasn't the likes of Asad or the other Asian specialist able to source them for you Dave ? the number of times they go across to India they could pick some up one of the suppliers get some and send on with the other orders.

Sounds strange to me as they must be available out in India on general sale on the open market so someone should have contacts to get them. I will ask around a few old contacts.

I asked asad i asked Lukey through Yash nothing apparently it had something to do with Gray Nicholls and contracts so none of them could ever get me one.

well there is always a way if you know the right people, not saying i do but if you have the contacts you can get most things and especially if you know someone visiting India regularly.

I have a good friend who lives out in India and he comes to England every year to Pro around the leagues up here so i will ask if he can source a couple, they wont be trade price however I'm sure they will be fairly cheap and save on possible customs and vat etc etc. Ive asked around some old contacts also to see if they can help or not.

would be good to know how light the shell is, my guess is not that light- not that it affects sachins batting. the lids look pretty cool, not sure i could pull it off!

I have one spare Forma helmet but with the black steel grille. Like the ones Sachin used in the pre Titanium days. Let me know if anyone is interested.
My main helmet is also a Forma with titanium and I really like it. Slightly heavier than the Masuri Ti but great, snug fit
