Review of:
ParaMount Ion
in Unknown Tag: 'cat_linked'
Pros:
Comfortable, good protection
Cons:
Top camera mount allows a camera to rotate slightly
I have made about 70 jumps with my Ion, and I love it. It's comfortable and provides excellent protection. My friend recently chose the same helmet based on my experience. It's made from Kevlar, demonstrating its design intent of providing protection as well as other skydiving functions. I have the top camera mount, and the strap is easily cinched down and tucked into the rubber band for jumping without the camera. The only trouble I've had with it is that the top camera mount allows my camcorder to rotate slightly if bumped in the airplane, which screws up the alignment. I've had to augment the hardware a bit to prevent any camera rotation.
