Advantages: It does exactly what it is designed to do and well! Disadvantages: none that I experienced
...This is a product that has probably saved my life! I recently came off my bike and landed head down. The helmet was destroyed but I survived without even a concussion. To put this in perspective I did smashed my shoulder and collar bone to the point where it is going to take six months to heal assuming I don't need further surgery, flayed the skin from my back and bruised the backs of my ankles, but no head wounds. What more do you want from your helmet?
The reasons I choose the Bell Triumph were fairly simple, for the price it looks pretty good, it's light at 250g and the front vents have mesh covers, which if you have ever had a wasp trapped against your head for any amount of time you will appreciate!...

Advantages: Perfect weight, balance of power and control Disadvantages: For the serious player only
...I'd owned the Head prestige classic for many years prior to the release of it's successor and I have to say that it did me really well. However, I was curious to say the least when the new Head 'intelligence' prestige was released, so I went to a specialist tennis shop to get the lowdown. The racquet is available in 3 different head sizes; The mid version has a head size of 93 square inches, and the mid plus and the mid plus xl versions both have a head size of 98 square inches.
I took a good look at the mid plus racquet in the shop, but I decided that at the time, I couldnt really afford to buy two because they were retailing at £199.99 each! I say two, because as all serious players will know, because of the vast number of strings you break during matches, you can't really afford to run the risk of having only one racquet. Also...

...The Giro Atmos makes you look and feel great. The carbon fibre inserts make it very lightweight which makes it go un noticable so you don't feel as if you're riding round with a weight over your head. It uses a RocLoc system to give an adjustable perfect fit around the head. The Atmos has 26 vents which gives it great ventilation to keep your head cool on hot days, along with the coolmax paddings which can be taken out to be washed.It comes with a helmet pod so you can carry and transport your helmet safely. The Atmos is unbelievably light and extremely cool! It may be pricey but it is worth every penny! With this helmet on the market theres no excuses for not wearing one....
