Default Cool or useless?

Unless you have the instruction manual taped to your chest, I don't see any non-track EMT's using this thing.

Interesting. If i am not mistaken paramedics/emt's are trained to properly remove a helmet anyway.

Yeah, I'm not sure if there is any real benefit to this.

Hmmmmmm, not in my experience.

This might be something I'd want to have at the track available for EMS to use if need be... thanks!

mitaken. most are not.

Public Service Announcement - if you have old hemets that you're no longer using - even crashed helmets, donate them to the fire dept. or hospital for helmet removal training!!!!

Some EMT's/Paramedics are trained, most are not.

looks like an interesting system.

BTW lauralynne, great idea about donating, wish i had thought of that, as over the years i have tossed a number of helmets.

Is it a one use system?

Cause that would be sweet to raise and lower, while cruising in my flip flops on my stretched, chromed Air Jordan GSXR.
