## Description

desertcart.com : Triple Eight Dual Certified Bike and Skateboard Helmet, Gun Matte, Large/X-Large : Skate And Skateboarding Helmets : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Awesome helmet, looks really cool! - We bought this helmet to go with a skateboard that my son got for his 9th birthday. I went by the measurements in the product description and ordered a size S/M for my son. When the helmet arrived, we quickly realized, that it was way too large for my son. I started the exchange through desertcart and ordered the size XS/S the same day and received the new helmet the next day. I was very happy with the quick exchange. The size XS/S sits perfectly on my 9 year olds head. It's not too tight and also not too loose where I would be concerned about his safety. The helmet covers the sides and the back of his head nicely. The black is nice and shiny and the neon green on the one side of the strap makes it look really cool. My son loves the helmet and uses it every day.
Review: All around awesome helmet. Certified safety and cool factor - Over the last few weeks, IlI have returned three helmets and I can say I have finally found the winner. I’ve been looking for a BMX-ish type helmet for cruising around the hood on my bike. Two of the helmets were advertised incorrectly as applying to biking or are questionable on safety—advertised with [certification] but with no markings or stickers lending credit to the claim. They also came only in a tied-off bag...sketchy. The third one had such a large dome that it made my head look huge....probably a safe helmet, but not the youthful look I was after. Opened the desertcart box and was extremely happy to find the helmet in packaging worthy of a new helmet from a store. The box had the advertised certifications right on the front of the box. Additionally, the inside of the helmet had certification stickers and mfg date/lot stickers. All the info in the helmet and on the box made me feel like I was getting a legit safe product. I got the glass black helmet and it’s about as glossy as a highly polished car. I’m talking 95% mirror gloss. I like the green color of the brand stickers and the chin strap. Only one strap is green, the other is black. It also comes with a large orange sticker to slap on something and additional pads. The space/cut-outs above the ears is ample. The thickness of the inner impact foam and the shell along with the overall shape is just right. I feel like I’d be protected but also don’t look like a commuter. The fit is nice. With the pads, it sits on your skull cap evenly and is cushioned just right. Nowhere does it compress or rub on a given spot. There isn’t a back adjustment cage/dial to tighten it down, but it actually sits/fits so well when the straps are properly adjusted. Because of this, I wasn’t overly concerned it wasn’t going to stay on should I go airborne and skid on my melon. The air port holes aren’t very big but still allow enough airflow to move through that you won’t get too too sweaty. This helmet was a winner. I liked it so much I was adding my own stickers to it after only 5 minutes. I’d highly recommend this helmet and we’ll probably get another one for the family.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this helmet designed to short both genders?**
A: As I read the question,,,I'm honestly not certain what your asking.    "Is this helmet designed to short both genders?"     I can say that it fits male and females alike. As the info states you are able to somewhat adjust size with pads they supply.  Good luck.

**Q: Is this safe for Skiing or rock climbing as well?**
A: In terms of head protection, the design is basically the same as ski helmets, although this one lacks insulation so you would want it to be a size too big so you could fit a hat on underneath.  Rock climbing helmets feature a harder plastic exterior, used to protect from falling rocks.  Bike/ski helmets dont have a hard enough exterior shell to to protect from rock falls.

**Q: How wide is the xl helmet, with inner foam left to right at center?**
A: It is 6 inches across from temple to temple.

**Q: How does this compare to the other "non-certified one" do they look the same and do they both have the special liners? Which one should I go with?**
A: In comparison to the non-certified this model preferred more often then not. The fitting is nearly the same and includes its own set of special liners. We recommend to go with this model as it is more protective against falls and impact to the helmet region.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid Helmet - Oval Shaped for Oval Head and decent liner
*by J***Z on July 22, 2021*

I bought this helmet along with the Protec Certified. Both Helmets are pretty much the same helmet from a protection standpoint. I saw various reviews comparing the shapes of both helmets with Protec being more round & Triple 8 being more oval. I was not really sure how my head would fit so I purchased both to compare. Looking at the helmets you can clearly see the shape difference. Protec is more round and Triple 8 more oval. I first tried the Protec and It looks more pronounced of a mushroom (round) on my head and there is more space (loose) in the temples so yea it is round and I realized my head is more oval shaped. The triple 8 is for sure more oval and fit my head more evenly all around and had no gap near the temples. With the padding people complain but I have had many helmets and the padding is NOT BAD. I am not saying it's good but for sure not bad.h compared to the Protec that is pretty thin! Triple 8 offers two sets of liners with different thickness and the thinner one is still thicker than the Protec. I think the perfect helt might just be the Triple 8 Certified sweatsaver which I will give a try. Long story short; same exact helmet safety wise as Protec, Triple 8 for oval heads and decent liner pads with two options.
