Mentosfresh 0 #1 April 4, 2017 I've had my Bonehead Rev2 helmet for about 2 years now. Recently I've been noticing my chin strap loose mid-flight while wingsuiting. At first I thought I forgot to put it on before exit, but I noticed it this past weekend come undone when I turned my head one way. It's been happening more frequently lately Luckily it hasn't flown off. Anybody else experience this? What can I do about it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 598 #2 April 4, 2017 Closely examine the chin strap and its buckles. After 2 years and "X" number of jumps, they maybe wearing out. If so, Bonehead will cheerfully sell you replacements. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mxk 1 #3 April 4, 2017 I've had my Rev2 for 2.5 years and haven't experienced this problem. I removed the cutaway system from my helmet because I was concerned about the handle getting caught on something and disconnecting the strap unintentionally (also didn't have much confidence in the actual design). Could that be the culprit? Mentosfresh I noticed it this past weekend come undone when I turned my head one way... What can I do about it? Don't turn your head that way Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pnuwin 0 #6 April 5, 2017 My strap comes off in freefall as well. I once had to stop midway through a 4-way jump to stop 2 audibles and a camera from disappearing into the forest below. Tracked away with one hand on my head and saved several hundred dollars worth of gear. My solution now is to put a small stow band over the red clip. Just enough tension to stop it coming off.

BH_Composites 0 #7 April 5, 2017 What helmet do you have and when was it purchased? Our chin straps have a tension band over the red pull tab which we added to the full-face helmets two-three years ago (if I recall correctly). Let me know if you need another chin strap too.

That's great news if the chin strap has been revised. I'll private message you about getting one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
