Kask Super Plasma Hi-Vis - Fluorescent Lime

I bought the Kask Super Plasma helmet as a replacement to my Petzl Ecrin Roc after discussing it with several professional rope access techs. I am an avid caver, climber and canyoneer - I get out just about every weekend, one or both days, and all my vacation time is outside - I have been doing this solid for about the last 10 years. I need a helmet that is versatile and lightweight. I like the suspension helmets better than the foam-padded ones, and just didn't care for the offerings of the usual recreational brands after trying many on. It is well ventilated and fit my small head well after I added some velcro foam padding. I like the comfortable chin strap, my headlamps sit securely on it, and it's overall a great helmet.This helmet probably saved my life on Sunday when I fell 15-20 ft due to an anchor failure in a canyon. I fell on my side and hit my head on the side so hard it damaged the suspension system. I lost consciousness for several minutes and have a major concussion. Due to wearing this helmet, I was able to exit the canyon after two more large rappels under my own power (and thankfully with fireman's belays from others in my party). Had I been wearing a helmet that didn't fit as well, wasn't as well designed or built, or my ancient and beloved Ecrin Roc, I am certain I would have needed rescue (and had I not worn a helmet at all, it would have been a recovery not a rescue). The side impact protection was extremely important in this case - I have a huge bruise/sore spot/lump on the side of my head and face.I promptly bought another helmet which will arrive Thursday this week. Thank you Kask, and Amazon.

Like the fact it has plenty ventilation

Perfect description and quality made very comfortable

Just what I wanted

All of my coworkers and I use these at work (we work for a local tree business) and they are very comfortable and safe. A friend of mine took a hit to the helmet by a large limb and it likely saved his life.

Works for me I’m a Driver hauling equipment and like this style hard hat. It doesn’t fall off and I have ear/eye protection when needed. Ear and eye protection sold separately and the hardware for the ear protection.
