GPA Speed Air Helmet (http://www.schockemoehle.net/shop/product_info.php/products_id/1277?osCsid=332296d9f28671ab1cdbdf9b9b221d99)

I found this on another forum. GPA appears to have come up with another new helmet design. To me it looks like something from a Sci-Fi flick. What do you all think?

I think it's very unattractive...but I bet we will all be wearing something like it in two years...remember the days of troxels and no GPAs?

I'd rather just spur my horse a little more for that extra .000001 of a second...If they are going to be designing speed products it seems like they should have a speed hunt coat or something along those lines since it covers a lot more of your body. That helmet is ugly! :eek:

I think its really ugly...this coming form an eventers point of view. I dont understand why you guys would say that eventers would wear it? Just because its ugly or what? :S

Because eventers have balls :p No, I just think most eventers could careless what people think about their attire, as long as they like it, that's all that counts.

Have you noticed how many top riders are wearing it now though?? I'm so sad, I REALLY hope those don't come into style b/c they are so ugly!

Am I the only one who thinks the speed air is cool? It would never work in the hunters, but in the jumpers..............oh yeah. :D

Taylor- I think you need one for your new mare. I've heard that by just wearing it you'll shave 2 seconds off your time and have fewer rails- that's just what they're saying. ;)

Haha - Diva doesn't need any help, she's fast and clean enough already!

but maybe i'll try to bring them into style?....

Good Point Taylor, I mean we are all used to the GPA's now, well I have to say I love mine! But in a few years we all all have something like that helmet because its "safer".

ahaha...taylor if you bring them into style then all us juniors are going to have to get them!!

and i just got a new helmet....but i could see me going to college and showing up for the first eq. team practice...they'd look at me like "ummm....you should go back to oregon...."

hehehe

What type of helmet did you get??? My mom wants me to get one of those charles owen ones but i dont want to be the first one to get one..... haha

HOWEVER I was watching a grand prix and beezie madden had a gpa speed air on and she won.... so maybe thats a sign we should get one and then we will win??...

kdub
11-28-2005, 11:59 PM
ohhhh.....good point!! lol. but if we both have one...we'll tie all the time! so we should trade off! hehe. i just got another GPA before USET finals because lindy was like "you can not do that with stripes on your helmet!"

but yeah, the jumper charles owen one like katy ferguson has? those aren't bad...i have a big head so that wouldn't work so well....haha

ttyl!

TAYLOR! KRISTI! what are you two thinking? if either of you wear that helmet i will have to come take it off your head. it kind of reminds me of a cross between a bike helmet and tinfoil... kind of like when you put tinfoil on your head, you know, to make a hat? uhh or maybe that's just me... basically what i'm trying to say is i think they're ridiculous looking!

Lizard

totally...the colors are awful...maybe if the silver part was black or something, but it would still be gross


i agree

hahaha....don't worry, jackie....i won't! and they're probably like 3times as much money as a normal gpa. lol.

Haha true kristi - we will have to take turns....don't worry jackie! BUT if i do get one of those helmets, i'm telling everyone it was your idea and that you made me buy it and that you really like them K?
