Cascade CS Sizing

[C4ND1_R4V3R]

Does anyone know what head measurements the CS accomodates? I like the Pro7 look but like the CPX even with the large sizing pad, its still huge on me. I wear a S/M CPro (which is still way big). Never used a CLH2. Would I be able to use a CS (if anyone has one, I'd love to trade my CPro depending on the colors)?

Its not really a good helmet. Its not too comfortable, and the chin dosen't come down far enough. Its more for small, youth players.

yea that helmet is usually for smaller youth grades. like ages 10-13 or around there. Have you tried any brine helmets? There is the Triumph and triad which are nice...

[C4ND1_R4V3R]

I don't play in a very aggressive league. And I'm really small. I know middle school kids bigger than me. I don't care how good the helmet is, I just wanna know how big it is

[C4ND1_R4V3R]

Tried the Brine ones. The adjustable helmets just don't work for me. Too big. And the triad doesn't fit my head shape right, so it hurts and I get headaches.

The helmet is small, I could hardly fit it on my head (I have an average size head). It just looks disproportioned if you don't have the right size head (like an XS size). The kid who uses it on my team has about the same size head as me, and it just looks/fits bad on him (I don't think he notices though). Hes going to get checked in the neck some day.

[Mayhem]

well seeing how he is a goalie i dont think neck protection matters much right?

[C4ND1_R4V3R]

Yeah, exactly mayhem. Its probably real light too. Can anyone compare this to a CLH2 size? That at least has a sizing chart..

[Titanoh]

I'll ask my teammate to try on his Cs again, I'll get back to you tommorow. I know you don't really care about how good it is or whatever, but I'd highly recomend to not get this helmet, get a CPX or Pro 7. Its not all about looks, the grade of plastic in this helmet can't be too great either, seeing as it is a entery level helmet. I just don't see it being durable at all. You can get a decent CPX for $130, or a more used one for about $100.

Thanks man.

its somewhat smaller than a a small cascade. its meant for kids 6-12. i have one for my 4 1/2 year old daughter and it fits her pretty well. her brother, who will be 3 in august, it rattles around on his head, but he doesnt care

lastly i dont know if its meant to handle full contact HS lax. lax at the U13 level isnt as rough and aggressive as HS ball. you might get hurt. its not worth it

i usually cant fit them on kids over 10. ive seen 6-8 year olds with heads too big for the CS
