Hi and welcome! Thank you for finding us. Most of us are in recovery mode from SDCC, so I'm sure more people will chime in soon. Make sure you update your profile with your name and what-not so we know more about you.

Welcome Prescott! I'm glad you found us.

Welcome Diego!

Welcome! I second (third?) that you should go to the IOC Forum. If it's like any other forum you can usually post a photo of what you are thinking of buying and they can chime in on whether they think it would be approvable. It will save you from many "oops" purchases.

Let me take a look in my box of "spare parts" I might have an unpainted MC Compad. I prefer my TargWorks one.

There is another guy making what seems to be well-regarded helmets on the JRS. You can buy the kit for cheaper or fully assembled.

Mine is a Dan Laws. Very well made. He's in Portland. I'm facebook friends with him.
