Rhoda Ochoa replied to June Tate's discussion Polo Helmet Advice"YES!!! I cry foul on this. I suppose there are a fair few polo people who have never dabbled in other horse sports and wouldn't go "heeeeeeeey, wait a minute", but the more I think about this the more it smells."
Tera Singh replied to June Tate's discussion Polo Helmet Advice"it's pretty ridiculous that they're forcing us to use a standard that didn't even have any equestrian gear in any discipline already on the market"
Rhoda Ochoa replied to June Tate's discussion Polo Helmet Advice"And I have no beef with them allowing NOCSAE... it's a legit standard, but so is ASTM. Allow both."
Rhoda Ochoa replied to June Tate's discussion Polo Helmet Advice"Well, that is somewhat encouraging. Also, lol. Tempting."
Tera Singh replied to June Tate's discussion Polo Helmet Advice"Actually with NOCSAE you don't have to replace it everytime, I think that was the reason it was chosen.
Bruce Cowley on here has a Falcone and seems to like it, I have the new La Martina (which btw failed the USPA test) and I don't…"
Rhoda Ochoa replied to June Tate's discussion Polo Helmet Advice"I'll probably do quite a bit of research before I buy. At $285, not only is this more "reasonably" priced helmet still over 10 times what a safe, comfortable schooling helmet costs (one that I can actually effectively clean all…"
Tera Singh replied to June Tate's discussion Polo Helmet Advice"Ha, agreed on the eventers issue. The Falcone 2005 is reasonably priced, however."
Rhoda Ochoa replied to June Tate's discussion Polo Helmet Advice"Also, speaking of face masks, I -really- want to see testing on the risk (i.e. is there a risk? How big is it?) of neck injuries due to face masks. If my fears of said injuries were assuaged, I might actually consider wearing one.…"
Rhoda Ochoa replied to June Tate's discussion Polo Helmet Advice"Ahhhhhhhhhh, it makes me so mad that USPA went for a NOCSAE standards instead of using an ASTM/SEI certified equestrian helmet, like EVERY, SINGLE, OTHER EQUESTRIAN SPORT. If you really want a facemask, that does change things a little, but I…"
