Katie's - 2016-05-23 11:09 AM If you're coming to the BRN4D Finals this weekend - LOTS of helmets at GREAT prices!!  
 I saw that they are adding a $1000 added side pot for anyone wearing a helmet during their finals. So awsome!! Hopefully more races start doing this.

Yes!  $1,000 side pot for the open race on Monday AND Katie's will award each division winner $100.00 store credit!  So excited for the weekend!

WyodivaSS - 2016-05-25 7:28 AM Love my new Fallon Taylor Helmet with the aztec design and got it from State Line Tack! They were quick getting it to me!!! Be careful who you order from...I ordered one from Cosmic Cowboy and its been a month now that its been backordered and can't get ahold of anyone!

Not good that you can't get ahold of them, but I will say that the Fallon Taylor helmets have been so popular that they have had trouble keeping them in stock and the turquoise aztec and paint splatter helmets out of my order were on backorder for almost two months.  Finally have them all back in stock but I did have a couple customers cancel as well.

I was incorrect, I got my first Fallon helmet from Valley Vet Supply. I also wanted to let you know that after posting something about Cosmic Cowboy...& not being able to get ahold of them...I had left another message & I got a call and apology from them today saying the order was messed up and they are sending me my cool turquoise, zebra with glitter helmet next day. Yay!
I guess they are slammed & about 1 month out on all orders. They do custom design helmets! He said with all of the accidents and what not lately...everyone wants a helmet! That's a good thing!!!
I have to say that after having a 3rd concussion and horse accident...I started wearing one! I told myself...Its not worth the risk...especially when I rode allot by myself! It may not be the coolest thing...but at 41, having a young daughter to take care & not wanting to take a risk of falling or getting hurt...I will be rocking the helmet now!

I haven't ever tried the FT yet but the MOST comfortable helment I have ever put on my head was a GPA. Most expensive but dang it was comfortable....Β 

I agree... I do love my GPA...

I ride with a helmet and have been for years BUT PLEASE, if you choose (wisely I may add) to ride with a helmet, please make sure it is PROPERLY FITTED AND FASTENED !!!! I see so many riders wearing helmets that are too big for them (mostly children) and straps too loose around the rider's chins. This is as dangerous as not wearing one!!! Wearing a loose helmet can do more harm than good in case of a wreck!

 I hope that other helmet makers will get the Fallon Taylor design.  The helmets are not made the same and heads are not the same.

What a great incentive to have a side-pot for helmet wearers like they are having at Pasco, Washington.

Samshield helmets are SUPER comfortable! I have always used a GPA but tried on a Samshield and fell in love. It fit me really well.
