    Re: [RC] helmets - Gary Fend


    I like the fit of the range rider but the jury is still out on how it
    looks.  I don't know why people question the back of the head
    protection.  It actually covers more of the back of my head than my
    lidlocker did.  I even got a chance to test the protection at Mariposa
    this year.   I kind of rolled off my horse at a run-away gallop and
    skidded on my back for about 20 feet with the back of my head taking
    about 90% of the impact.  I don't think I have any more loose screws
    than before.
    
    I sent it back to range rider for inspection/replacement (only costs $5)
    but am still waiting for its return.
