 So, Much, Flash! but dang, hardly a view of the helmet in the clip.. I'm not here to buy hype, was hoping to learn about the helmet in the video.

 Helmet saves head getting hurt. Marketing video hurts head. Sweet irony there Smile

 The video clearly shows this helmet is loaded with the latest in Less Weight Moar Fun (LWMF) technology. With an optimized Ice Cream Wide Uni Dome Templete (ICWUDT) chin bar.

 Was there any nudity in the video, I'm not interested in the helmet at all but if the video is good!!!!!!!!!!

 Worst video ever... Are they running out of money for marketing ?

 It's somewhat odd they don't list its certifications in the press release. Follow the link and they're there, just think they'd use that as a selling point.

 So it is DH certified then? I looked at their page and plenty of certification numbers I have no idea what they mean!? .........I am a bit slow tho!!
  • 12 0
 @Rimrider26: It is indeed. You're looking for the ATSM F1952 rating, specifically meant to certify bicycle helmets for downhill racing. This helmet looks well certified, appears as though the Fox Proframe has a new competitor.

 @LoganKM1982: awesome work mate. Thank you!! ........it sure does look good!!
  • 3 1
 The certification standards are quite low and most helmets exceed by a mile so not very useful

 Literally the worst product intro I’ve ever seen. Kinda helps to actually see the products...smfh.

 I have one, crazy good ventilation. Its a mind fu#k the breathability coupled with the typical full face view,
Good stuff. Pedaled up in the heat , no issues. The top venting is better than an A1.

 Got mine Thursday. Best helmet I've ever tried on.

 Why does the peak remind me of Donald Duck? can't wait to see one in the flesh;
  • 2 0
 He has the visor adjusted all the way up. When it's set low it is a little vision constricting...

 @pauldiggity: I'm sure as with all Troy Lee stuff it looks wicked, just from that angle reminded me of a ducks beak. Can't wait to see one, and try for size;

 As someone who is in the market for a lightweight full face helmet, it is good to have another option on the market!

 I wear my Aircraft all day while Endurobroing - it's not too hot or heavy for me. I might be a Herb.

 Love TLD but this video really sucked. After I recovered from the flash-inducing seizures I could’t remember why this helmet was so special. Btw the Stages name sucks too. C’mon you guys, you can be more creative than that!
  • 2 0
 The combo TLD with monster energy graphics look always good in every single tld helmet IMHO
  • 2 2
 I will consider this when my MET Parachute needs replacement. Color schemes are a little boring though.
  • 12 6
 Your parachute is a dad helmet.
  • 5 0
 @nickyp132: a dad helmet..... So what is a dad bike? A Santa Cruz. I am terribly curious. So the next hype is its a daduro bike with a daduro helmet in pj's
  • 4 0
 @Keit: daduro bikes are Scott's and yeti, be honest
  • 3 1
 @spaceofades: s#£t so it is a thing. How did we take a simple and great idea and evolve the bicycle into the ride it anywhere mountainbike....I hate even saying it, Enduro. I quote Bill Hicks:"By the way if anyone here is in advertising or marketing…kill yourself. It’s just a little thought; I’m just trying to plant seeds. Maybe one day they’ll take root – I don’t know. You try, you do what you can."
And I am far from the jerk who is against technology innovation.

 @spaceofades: Actually a daduro helmet and bike is either the met parachute or bell super 2r/3r, while wearing sunglasses/riding glasses. And a daduro bike would either be a Cannondale or a cube
  • 1 0
 @AntonOP: you have a good point with the Cannondale, but I'd say the cubes are too well priced to be a daduro bike. Cannondale and Scott especially, because they have convoluted lockout systems. You're spot on with the helmet though, good job.
  • 1 0
 @spaceofades: Trek, Specialized, Santa Cruz, Scott, Cannondale, Unno (and all of those weird ueberpriced boutique brands) and anything fitted with Tune components or the likes. Personally l would throw every carbon frame in the mix, but some are getting softer in pricing.
  • 1 0
 @Keit: I feel like lesser known brands wouldn't really be daduro bikes. But things like giant, specialized, Cannondale, scott, trek, yeti and so on, all those big companies are up on the list.

 At the end it should be written... « inspired by Fox »????
  • 2 2
 More like "Improved version of Fox".

 brought to you by squids world wide

 Looks sturdier and better than the proframe. Hope its better priced and not a cash in!
  • 3 0
 Ha! Have you seen the price? Let’s just say TLD are real proud of their work.
  • 2 1
 It looks pretty similarly sturdy to the proframe
  • 4 2
 I tried a M Proframe and had to send it back. Then I ordered the M/L Stage instead and it fits SO much better. Far superior helmet IMO. Lighter, better fit, more vents, moar enduro, full squid.

 @pauldiggity: I mean.. it's a better fit to you. We all shaped differently though

 What is with that visor? Why does it look so high?
  • 14 0
 Because it has reached the peak.

 SQUID!
  • 9 4
 Keep ripping the gnar in your half shell.
Your nurses with nickname you "squid" because you'll match a real one's brain function.
I hope "cool" is worth it.

 @Dustfarter: honestly doubt this helmet will save your brain much more than a half shell.

 You would think it would have a better price point .
