You should try a Albion test elite (AU$105) or club helmet (AU$65) a little expexsive but worth it. Or have you heard of the coldie helmets. Good design. They specially designed it so you can pull off the screw on top and put can put in a gel pack or icecubes! Really cools you down! (AU$39) But the guard only has 2 bars across   ]]> Sat, 16 Sep 2006 00:05:27 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1348&PID=84058#84058 helmets : Originally posted by cheech Originally... http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1348&PID=83183#83183 Author: mazzybabe.uk

i have a masuri and a albion.. never been hit in the head with either. but the albion has more protection and padding but i wear my masuri more because its lighter and it fits better on me. A helmet i find is more of a confidence thing. Ive batted without several times and i dont play pull shots or horizontal bat shots with it because im not condident and see my self backing away. Where as with a helmet they are my best shots.

But i cant say which is more protective but i highly rate both of them.

Average.

Buy a helmet off a company that specialises in that area.

Woodworm are a bat maker foremost.

Albion are the way to go.

When you buy one from a proper cricket store they have to fit it to your head to make sure you get the right size. This is great because you know that it wont be jiggling around on your head when your running or playing a big shot.

Its definately not rocket science and for many of us a helmet is just a helmet.

WOW i never knew there was such a difference in helmets.

To me, i just go for something that fits, (isn't too tigh and hard to put on, but doesnt fall back or tilt), something that lets me see alot, and doesnt block the sides of my vision, and weight. Too light is freaky tho Very funny.

meh, so the final verdict. What is a good helmet for me?

I am an bowling all rounder, who opens batting or plays late-middle order. I generally prefer to run between wickets and rush for twos and threes. If it's anyhting im tall, and my star sign in capricorn. =P

EDIT: oh yeah! im 14 Very funny...

Masuri are over-rated.

Albion Test Series Elite helmets are the BEST there is.

Ive heard Masuri helmets dont even meet the safety standards so thats a bit worrying for starters.

Plus Albion have an AWESOME reputation for producing world class protective equipment.

But yeh the Albion Test Series Elite is a top quality helmet and much better than the basic masuri helmet. The only reason i would consider a masuri is lightweight but for this u have to get the titanium grill which costs another $100 so its just not worth it.

my main concern about the new albions is that the gap etween the helmet and grill is to small then I saw mike husseys and I then knew that I should use those but it depends on what you want try all the helmets on in my opinion though the new albions feel the best and the cushhioning in there was brilint the masuri's felt flimsy to me who cares if it's titanium or not does it truelly feel any different ?  seems a watse of money to me ]]> Sat, 22 Apr 2006 13:48:00 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1348&PID=44517#44517 helmets : you can get albion test series... http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1348&PID=43898#43898 Author: stroke master

you can get albion test series helmets in two sizes

small to large

large to xxl

if youve got a small head get a small to large

they do look bulky, but they still look pretty gud, plus they are much more protective than masuri

i use a masuri, they are good as the grills don't bloke your vision for the ball. also they are lighter than any other average helmet.

the helmet is made out of fiberglass, and it is pretty strong but i got hit on the head once, i had a huge bump on my head for a week!

 

they are strong but not very shock absorbent

The two obvious are masuri and albion

The albion has a lot smaller space between the helmet and grill but the helmet fits a lot easier

masuri has a good size adjuster at the back that is very comfortable.
