Hopefully your Enduro-matic is working out well. I'm looking at getting one of those myself. How is it so far? Also, your Hex broke easily because it is designed to do that. Those helmets are designed to absorb the impact by cracking so that there is some give to prevent your brain from smashing against the wall of your skull. If it hadn't of broken you'd probably be a vegetable.

I'm on my 3rd Fox Flux. in about 5 or 6 years. I found a helmet that fits me well and protects the noggin. Why try something new? It's gotta be halfway decent if they've been making it for that long.

I like POC and Urge. Totally different fit (Urge won't fit my melon, so I wear Poc) but both seem like very safe helmets. Glad you're ok!
