Nice helmet Maverick. Because it is soooo hot here I only wear a 3/4 helmet, but it has saved my face once, so I bought another one just like it after the crash. Still, if it wasn't so hot here, sometimes with no breeze, I would like one like yours.

Thanks. A worker at a local DIY shop approached me about it - lots of questions. He was really keen until he heard the price! Surprisingly though, I've seen cheaper brands with better crash test results (which I didn't see coming). My old LS2 helmet had pieces that generated turbulence which annoyed me - the C3 Pro is generally regarded as one of the quietest helmets (even though it's a flip-face).
Personally I like it (a lot) but it's not "whisper quiet" or anything like that. I don't know why manufacturers don't build in semi-sealing ear cups to reduce noise even further.

Over here it can get hot inside the helmet, but it's been manageable. There's a removable chin curtain - vents in the front and top - but generally the only thing that gets enough air flowing through it is to open the visor to the first detent (which it's designed to do). So not a problem when riding - but sometimes I do fully open the visor when stopped at the lights.
