Ketariniii Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I just got my FX helmet together and as many of you know i feel like a bobble head. I eventually want to move to a more screen acurate helmet but have one concern. I can hardly fit my head from front to back into the FX lid! To go in wihtout scraping my skin i have to turn it sideways. So here is the question. How much smaller are the other helmets as compared to the fx?

Runnriottt Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 All helmets so far as I know are sideways entry. Took me a while to get it down armored up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chefhawk[501st] Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 I agree, all the helmets have to be twisted on sideways. I have a big head and had to trim a bit round the bottom edge, but its fine. Hope this helps cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsThatGuy[501st] Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) Yep - I have to put mine on sideways - FX is about 15% larger than most ANH helmets: Edited February 17, 2021 by gmrhodes13 photos updated gmrhodes13 2021 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 You can always cut more out the bottom to make a larger entry. I've seen people 6' with glasses be able to put an ANH on. It can always vary per pull - I've had an easier time getting some of my TE2's on than an RT, and others the AP is easier, yada yada yada. I also have to squeeze the sides a wee bit to get one of the buckets on, but not the others. Go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
