Icon Ftw!!!

Went splurging today!! I picked up the Icon Death From Above helmet and am looking at the new airframe as soon as I pick a color! Figured I'd share the guys I go through with yall! They're great, I've ordered most of my gear through them and the prices and speed of delivery are good as well.

Yep,I have to say that the Icon helmets are definitely going in the right direction! I'm thinking about that seventh seal Airframe helmet even tho' I should be getting my Akuma next week. I like that seventh seal jacket too except I'm not a huge fan of red. I also like the Automag/Suzuki in white but I have four white jackets now.....

Oh well,at least I got new frame sliders for my baby. The dealer here was costing out the Suzuki frame slider kit for $40 so I bought a set even tho' they're similar to the Vortex and Harris ones I have now. Hmmm maybe I will get the Automag and the blue Suzuki Airframe helmet. Hmmmmm....

damn! nice prices! im still really into that airframe claymore but im not sure its worth all that much more over the rubatone. decisions decisions

damn good prices. For some reason I have dug the Death from above lid since it came out. But man there are a lot of good solid helmets out there right now.

i agree with Fatburg....

while i've been huge fan of the ICON line and their styling, i'm now looking at functionality more.

One of these days i'm going to get out and try a few of these Shoeis and Scorpions and maybe a Suomy...

I love the death from above lid. I want one so bad.

OneSickPsycho · 03-20-2008, 09:31 AM

Flashy helmets like that make me want to vomit... Icon Decay on the other hand... Money.

I actually like the design. However, I'd never buy it. Suomy is too solid to pass up for an Icon.

YAY!!

By the way, does ICON make their own lids, or are they re-branded like the Joe Rocket helmets?

As far as I know, HJC makes Icon's lids.
