matthewcline 0 #3 February 22, 2011 I hear this from time to time. I have had one Factory Diver for 14 years and one Oxgyn for 3+ years. I have used other Factory Divers and Oxgyns as well. Never have I had a lens open or come off. I have seen them assembled incorrectly and that has led to lens issues. It may just be a bit of hasty replacement work and not double checking it.

beowulf 1 #4 February 22, 2011 I have been using the Factory Diver for a few years now and my only complaint is the velcro doesn't last very long, especially in the wind tunnel. They have been needing to address this issue. I am glad they finally have. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjosparky 3 #5 February 23, 2011 I don't think Factory Dive has a face shild that opens. Sparky http://www.skysystemsusa.com/helmets/factory_diver.phpMy idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is mine. http://i397.photobucket.com/albums/pp55/mjosparky/Skydiving/Helmet3.jpg But the discussion was on the Factory Diver.

matthewcline 0 #8 February 24, 2011 Nice paint. I started the thread about the Factory Diver, but the slide snap will be on all the Full Face Helmets (my understanding minus the camera ones). Then in my response to the comment of a visor that flipped right off, I looped the Oxgyn's in to the discussion. Sorry for the confusion. MattAn Instructors first concern is student safety.

Leaping_Laura 0 #9 March 6, 2013 The old factory divers did, along with a snap that held them in place on the front. If you don't snap it, wind will get under it and it will break. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
