The best and most popular skydiving helmet in the world is… The MINDWARP from Bonehead Composites is the most sold, most worn helmet in skydiving. The new MINDWARP "Pimp Daddy" has been updated since 2004. After listening to your comments, we built a better Mindwarp. The MINDWARP "Pimp Daddy" was designed to be either a straight ahead open-face helmet or to add different camera mounts for a full-fledged camera helmet. Noticeable changes to the Mindwarp design are a much sleeker internal audible pouch and a completely redesigned shell & liner system that looks 10X better and feels 10X more comfortable.... especially when you thermo-form the liner... making it even more custom!
The MINDWARP "Pimp Daddy" features the ability to put 1 or 2 audible altimeters inside the helmet and not have to worry about them sailing off in freefall. The MINDWARP "Pimp Daddy" is perfect for freeflying, RW, tandem masters and even student use... that is why we say... "It ain't just for freefly anymore!" The MINDWARP "Pimp Daddy" comes standard with BH's ingenious Thermal-Fit liner, neoprene padded leather FASTEX chin-strap closure.

I have owned a Mindwarp now for two years, and absolutely love it. It works great with a time out, and I have just recently mounted a camera mount on it, and it works great. Although it may not look as good as the Invertigo, it holds up better to everyday jumping. I know a few people with the Invertigo and both have developed stress cracks. Great helmet. The only improvement would be to make it easier for the higher end audible to work on it.

After countless recomendations I picked up a Bonehead with the L bracket for digital video camera. This helmet replaced my Gath as my primary brain bucket, and I am very happy with it.

The helmet and L bracket make a sturdy platform for my video camera (don't have to worry about loosing it in freefall). The helmet provides a perfect fit since you have the option to mold it to your head (requires you to bake it for 10 minutes first). Another nice feature is the protected audible compartment. I have a Pro Track and didn't really like mounting it on the outside of my Gath, but it fits nicely inside the Bonehead (does not affect the comfort of the helmet either). The Mindwarp is a good video platform, provides good protection for both your head and audibles, and fits great.

With the temeratures dropping here in Michigan, I am glad I have by Bonehead to wear. The foam inserts act as great insulators and keep my ears warm in the winter. Much warmer than frap hats, Gath, and Pro Tec I have worn in the winter.

I test jumped several freefly style helmets including: the Nvertigo, Bonehead, Velocity and Gath. The Bonehead Mindwarp appeared to provide the best fit, head coverage and protection. To further improve the fit, Bonehead Composites suggests you bake (post cure) the helmet to custom mold the shell and interior foam.

I followed the simple instructions, which involved:
a. Preheating your oven to 150 degrees b. Turn the oven off, then place the helmet on a cookie sheet for 10 minutes in the oven.
c. Remove the helmet and place on your head
d. Tension the chin and circumference strap snug and apply pressure to the lower edge of helmet below the ears for close fit.

On jump run it's easy to slip the helmet on, cinch the straps and go. In the air you will appreciate the snug secure fit, particulaly on stand up freefly jumps which can inflate or even blow off some loose fitting helmets. During a close proxminity two way freefly, I was kicked so hard in head during my partner's transition that it blew off my goggles, but didn't feel the impact at all. (Thanks Suzy)

I bought the helmet direct from the surplier which caused the cost to be lower than I thought. On recieving the helmet I had to mould it to fit my head. This ment the helmet gave the closet of fits which when in freefall is useful. I recommend the helmet to any one however at 170 pounds it is an expensive part of jumping. Blue Skies Matthew
