This is the classic WRSI Current Pro and is a great helmet. One of the best for the price. Unfortunately the ear protection is not removable which makes conversations on the river problematic. I returned it and picked up one with removable ear protection. It's more comfortable and I get to speak below a yell.This is my first kayaking helmet. Love it. The visor is really nice on sunny days. The fit is good, and the design is impressive how it keeps the helmet in the proper position to do its job. If you have to adjust the plastic bracket on the back, it will be difficult, but it can be done. They tell you in the directions that you’ll have to use some force, and they aren’t kidding. But it really made a difference for the helmet doing its job for me. Highly recommend this helmet. It’s comfortable, and I love the ear pads on colder days.Seems like a well-made helmet, and it's comfortable. I've had it 4 months, and worn it 3-4 times for a couple hours each time. I like the bill that keeps the sun out of my eyes. I was concerned about getting the correct fit, but after reading the reviews and manufacturer's instructions, I ordered the size that seemed appropriate, and by gosh the helmet fit. Fortunately I haven't tested how well the helmet protects my head from a hard blow. (this helmet replaced a many years old fiberglass helmet, with a velcro'd on hat bill, that had lots of cracks).I love this helmet! Very comfortable and excellent quality. I just wish it was easier to adjust. If you loan it to someone, it’s a huge production to make it more loose or tighter. I wish it had the knob at the back to make adjustments.Helmet is well made and comfortable.
