Been toying with the idea of a full helmet. Slipped in the mud at the weekend there & rattled my head off a tree... Not advisable. Does nothing whatsoever for your aim lol.

Id go with better footwear as opposed to a cumbersome full head shield thingy. Staying on your feet with a pair of footy boots is much more advisable :)

You ok though?

I think the full head shields are designed more to decrease the pain of a paintball hitting, probably not designed as something to save your bonce from trees. Id eliminate this entirely with a pair of footy boots (or rugby boots if you want ankle support)

Personally, I dont see a need for them, a decent thermal goggle system will be your most important bit of kit.
