  1. Since a lot of reviews about the FreeZr also include that the one who bought it has a big head, I decided to write one as well, but this time that it fits as a glove for smaller heads as well!

    When I was looking for a fullface helmet I tried on a few. When I put on the FreeZr, I immediately felt comfortable with it on my head. Lightweight, and good vision all sides. Even tried it on with my rig, could see my handles no problem. Tried it with my sunglasses underneath, because in summer that is what I would do. No problem!
    Paratec offers 3 different outer scales, and 6 different padding sizes. So I guess for each head there is a fit! I thought I had a pretty big head, but the XS had best fit. When I put on a Z1 to compare, I immediately took it off again because it wasnt nearly as comfy as the FreeZr.
    Had to wait a bit till I could try it out, but now with only 4 jumps with it I have no regrets whatsoever. The first jump I even forgot to fasten my chinstrap, and it didn't come off! (belly flying)

    Maybe in due time the stuffing around the chin will become less stiff and then maybe it will come off if I ever forget the chinstrap again, but I have no intention in trying that again.

    While flying no problem with fogging, under canopy a little bit, but fixed by breathing out trough my mouth or open the visor a little bit. (tried it while it was -2 degrees)

    Opening and closing the visor is a little tricky at first because of the two pins at the sides, but not annoying difficult.

    Hope to enjoy my FreeZr for a long time!!
