I still have my FAST maritime helmet that I used all the time to get out of vehicles, and man did it take some hits during Jumps......a minimum of a bump helmet is a must !.....Nice setup and tips brother.....Thanks
Great setup 👌🏼 be careful with the S&S mount, I seen you tied it around the ball joint, had a buddy almost lose his do to the fact we were hiking through some thick brush and the mount broke at that ball joint... pop out of the socket... ended up having to stick it in his pocket. Same light set up you have there. He luckily had his tied to that opening on the arm so it was hanging from his helmet and was saved because of it. Enjoy your content subbed
Thanks for the vid/info! would love to see more on NVG stuff. Any tips/tricks for working under NODS would be cool(Judging light conditions w/ duels, eye cups/no eye cups, tips for walking on various terrain, ect).
Why is it that after so many years of beating, bashing, smashing and breaking ourselves... we just can't seem to stop and just go fishing or buy a sailboat or something? Nope... just more gear and find a new way to beat, bash, smash and break ourselves!
Unless I have to set up my helmet to a Unit/team SOP I'm a big fan of not have everything attached to my helmet. Reason one is I don't care who you are after wearing your helmet for an extended time you are gonna take it off for a sec to get some airflow and relief for your head. the second reason is if anything your helmet gets fucked up and damage most people have their commo, eyepro, lights, and everything else built into your helmet you are basically completely outta the fight. Its not bad to have it that way but from my experience ill at the least my have my comms attached to it.
This is a well done video. I like it... I'm not sure how to say this without sounding like a dick, but a tip maybe? a request? something that would be nice?... either way, no disrespect or anything but if you had links for things... example, the light mount, the light, the helm cover... just so if i wanted to purchase the EXACT thing... i know we are on the same page. Thanks! well done! I will be back!
I detest helmets but do really like these high cuts. I saw one first time in 'stan would love to get one but they're far too pricey for me at the moment. Have a reinforced ball cap that I've used as a bump, just the crown is reinforced so it protects when getting in/out of stuff. And actually check out our ops helmets, zebra 3. III ballistic protection and is pretty similar to this but without any rails or such..cost you about 59.99 then add on whatever postage. Cheaper, doesn't comp on protection but isn't as adaptable as this. This one would be pretty brilliant though so definitely adding it to my personal gear list.
I'm personally a fan. I haven't used the newer E COTI but ran the PAS 29 while I was in. Some guys didn't like them based on the weight being added to the nods (it is noticeable,) so a lot of guys just ran thermals on the rifle. I say if you can get one for a good price and are constantly doing stuff at night it's worth it.
I’d go by the measurements gentex puts out. For reference I’m like a 7 3/8 hat size (with a good amount of hair) and I’m at the edge of a large with the lux liner
Ah yes day combat dude, cause like half the hours of the day aren't in low light.. movement at night is the way to go. You don't get to pick and choose engagement times. There's a reason most raids in theaters happen at night.. the enemy doesn't have nvgs, or a limited amount.

Great helmet setup
Keeping it nice and clean and you still have everything you’d need on your noggin. Nice kit
I'm loving the crye cover on the ops-core.
Bootifull masterpiece,earned yourself a subscriber!

Very helpful! Thanks brother 🙏

I’m running a NVD bnvd sg, and a dtnvs at the moment. Nice tip on the girth hitch tie downs. I like the helstar6. Too expensive though imo.
Agree, too pricey for most applications. Can’t go wrong with any of the helstar’s though.

what size airframe cover do you have? Did you have to size up relative to helmet size?
I think it was a size down, so for an L helmet I think you need to run a medium

Always appreciate the feedback brother! I’ll go back and add some links, and add them in future vids.
where’s that blue figurine in the background from?
Have you upgraded helmets? If so would you sell this maritime?
Still running the maritime.

The smaller tie down cord, what is it? Thanks!
String from an S&S Vlite, but 550 cord gut works the same.
Hey man what batt are you in?
How about a green/ light instead of red on the small flex light Its pretty low key
Blue is all the rage now, so if I had to do it again I’d probably look for a blue option (easier to spot/work with blood)
What's your thought on the Ecoti or PAS-29?
I'm personally a fan. I haven't used the newer E COTI but ran the PAS 29 while I was in. Some guys didn't like them based on the weight being added to the nods (it is noticeable,) so a lot of guys just ran thermals on the rifle.

What size is your OpsCore MT in relation to head size?
I’d go by the measurements gentex puts out. For reference I’m like a 7 3/8 hat size (with a good amount of hair) and I’m at the edge of a large with the lux liner
@@REDSTRIKE175 dude lol I’m dead ass 22in at the top of the Med reaching Large. But Idk if the large is going to be too big
I like the build, however I wouldn't spend money for NVGs, I am more of a day-combat dude
It’s definitely a niche thing. Not really a necessity for most imo, but still nice to have around.
Ah yes day combat dude, cause like half the hours of the day aren't in low light.. movement at night is the way to go. You don't get to pick and choose engagement times. There's a reason most raids in theaters happen at night.. the enemy doesn't have nvgs, or a limited amount.
Ah the age old dilemma , you don’t want to drop the coin on nods, and since you’re a day combat dude you’re most likely not going to need them anyway.
I dont really think you can choose when you fight
No ears?
Wear em with a headband
