First of all, let me say I am NOT arguing anything! I'm simply showing there are differing viewpoints. I've been a lazer helmet owner since 1991 but, I don't have any of the superskin helmets.

My head fits nicely in a Shoei. And I wear it all the time because of the fit. The Lazer video says that the Superskin on the Lazer helmet has "lubericity" so the helmet won't stick on the ground and cause rotational injuries to the skull. I think I'll just wax my Shoei more often so it can be "slidely."

Love my Shoei X-11, fits far better than my old RF (different head shapes). Just got a new HJC for the 4-wheeler and it's pretty decent too.
