The Masuri is lighter, but only by around 70 grams, so I'd still go with the Ultimate 98.

And another spanner into the works...

I really like the masuri Ti and use to have an Albion. I sometimes keep wicket and couldnt imagine doing it in the Albion at all. The masuri is a much more compact helmet and offers a really good fit. In terms of weight, i know we \are talkingonly a few grams but when its your head during keeping for hours, it can make all the difference!

Have gone for the Masuri Ti mate, and seeing as I keep, agree with you on having a more compact lid

Deal as if your half decent you will be ok it takes serious pace to get anything that would do that on our pitch and not much of that about

Sounds lovely mate!

We had a meeting yesterday and are entering a 2s into Div 7 as Shrewsbury 4s have dropped out, which is good for the club. Moving in the right direction anyway

guys, my first post and i note in a helmet thread there was no mention of "fit" surely the most important thing about a helmet is that it fits thus staying in position when that rising ball slips under your bat and clocks you on the grille you can decide which grille once you have a helmet that fits your noggin properly
