RE: [RC] Fwd: Sportage Plus helmet question - Nancy Mitts
They were called Tipperary Sportage helmets. The new ones are the Tipperary Sportage Plus. I think the shell is thicker on the new ones, that is why they look bigger but fit smaller.

I switched from a Sportage to a Tipperary this last riding season. I was very thankful that I did. When I had the fall off of Valentina at Fireworks my head hit the boulder first. That helmet didn't even get a dent in it. I had a similar fall a few years ago after the horse I was on lost his footing jumping into the side of a hill and we went sideways. That helmet (Sportage) split in half. I had a horrible concussion and headaches for a very long time. Just my .02 cents. :)
