Bell Bellistic/Bell Drop FullFace helmet
from what I have read there are a few folks who use a Bell Bellistic Full face helmet and I was wondering if anyone has used the Bellistic helmet for terminal velocity jumps.

Anyone use the Bell Drop helmet?

thanks

Re: [KermieCorleone] Bell Bellistic/Bell Drop FullFace helmet
i use a big full face mountain bike helmet for terminal jumps and some wingsuit jumps. They all will work fine. The only loss with be some drag (5 to 20 % as a guess) . Unless you are really trying to maximize every ounce of your track, use it. It will save your ass someday.
