  1. Not many full face helmets restrict vision if you have a proper fitting helmet. I use a z1. It fits me well. It may or may not fit you. just depends on what is comfortable for you. Having a full face helmet saved me from testing my aad after a mid-air collision. the collision actually bent my visor and I had to replace it. I could only imagine what could have happened if I was wearing an open face. I was knocked senseless for a couple seconds but was able to reach back and pull. So yes go full face, but make sure you get a proper fit. Remember more expensive helmets don't mean more protection/quality. iv seen a bonehead composite helmet crack after someone hit the runway on a night jump (no flare). talk to a rigger, aff/tandem instructors, your dzo, and try on others helmets if you can (if your unable to make it to a boogie soon) and ask questions. if you can get into a cutaway harness with the helmet your thinking of buying to get the feel of it. like I said before the helmet should not restrict your vision if fitted properly.
  2. Just want everyone to be aware to NOT do business with Raul Velesquez from New Jersey. After having a written agreement to sell me his canopy he turned around and sold it to someone else. I am sorry but if you have an agreement written or not be true to your word. Instead he choose to be dishonorable. If anyone wants proof of this msg me and i will show you everything that was discussed.
