Cascade CPX or Pro 7
Try all the helmets on at your local Lacrosse outlet and see which fits best and offers the best protection.

Cascade helmets are the only way to go. Warrior is horrible, and Brine just isn't worth the money.
I'd get a CPX, the Pro 7 just hasen't proven itself yet.

I agree
I would get the STRYKE PRO Z by Cascade. I think its around 150.00

the stryke helmets are made by stryke, not cascade.
Id go with a cpx. I've had mine for 4 years now and i will never get another type of helmet. really a great choice.

nah imo the venom is ugly and uncomfortable id say cpx or pro7
edit- and stryke helmets were made by stryke but are now owned by warrior i think because they now say warrior on them and i wouldnt get one

The cpx might be lighter. by like an ounce...but the Pro7 was made to have the lightest feel when it is on your head. This is because they centered the weight of the helmet to feel the lightest out of any helmet ever on the market. I also like the vision on the Pro7 much better than the cpx. I'm not saying I still don't like the cpx, but the Pro7 was definitely a step higher for me. Also the Pro7 is a lot safer for preventing concussions. And, the pro7 has more customizable accessories than the cpx.
I have both the cpx, and the Pro7, so I'm not being biased based upon what I have.
Get the pro7.
