Own a Meteor Helmet?? be afraid	3-May-2011 At 7:58:30 AM	Lee C

I think you missed the point as to what I thought was the specific limitation with this helmet. Indeed it conforms to the standards but no other helmet would fall off your head after any of the standard penetration or blunt impact tests as did this.This happened because the straps at the back of the helmet only insert into polystyrene so are easily dislodged. So it's good for initial impact but not good if that initial impact is followed by a swing across sharp ironstone. Maybe I didn't make that clear in the first post, either way Petzl noted this as one of the most important issues to address with their new design.
