Gath RV and Gedi
Rated by: dhracer33 (more about me) on 2009-06-06 13:24:33 (user reviews) Review ID:2194

Pros: light weight, streamlined fit, inexpensive, looks good in photos :)
Cons: none

I purchased my first Gath two years ago and am very pleased with its performance. If you are looking for a helmet that is not over-built, is lightweight and comfortable, go with a Gath. I wear a helmet to avoid bumps from the plane, air to air contact during wingsuit flocking, and falling while landing and my Gedi and RV do a great job. I use my Gath not only for skydiving, but for BASE jumping and speedflying as well. Not to mention GoPro cameras strap onto the top perfectly.

Save up and buy better
Rated by: rakkers (more about me) on 2008-09-22 04:34:05 (user reviews) Review ID:2072

Pros: cheapish
Cons: everything

Not comfortable. Won't keep your head warm. Won't protect much. Irritates your ears. Save up and buy a better one.

Decent hood for the price.
Rated by: west33freefall (more about me) on 2008-06-28 15:18:40 (user reviews) Review ID:2008

Pros: Light Weight, Snug fit, slim look
Cons: Not good for audible or for hardcore protection

Just got the helmet in the mail. It doesn't look like much but it fit rather well and the padding is easy to cut down in places and you get extra strips of padding to customize the fit. Very light weight hardly feels like you have a helmet on but has plenty of padding and a hard enough shell to protect against bumps in or just out side the plane. I don't think I would recommend for someone who uses and audible. But all said and done it is a nice looking helmet and fits and feels pretty nice. For a cheaper helmet it isn't too bad.
