They are a bit pricey, but afterall it is your head. You can catch them on sale periodically, especially if you’re are open on color. Backcountry has a blue one on sale right now for $215.00.

Tim was s great guy to boat with and hang around with afterward. He was the first one I went to when I bruised my ribs in the SE trip this spring, because I knew he’d have my back if needed.
Unfortunately, I can’t be there tomorrow but please share my condolences with his family.

It’s not far from NOC. It’s a good class 2 without the Nanty’s cold water. Just put in below the first rapid from the same location.
