hey guys, i just got back from the store. they had one in XL with the pads like the first translucent white helmet (the classic bucky skate) and it was nice. my problem is, i don't know what (if any) certifications that helmet has. im pretty sure its not CPSC certified, which is a bummer. i emailed some chick at pro-tec who replied to my last email and i'll see what she says, but if its not certified, i don't know if it would be worth it. at least now i know an XL protec will most likely fit.
