If you are looking for a helmet, READ ALL OF THIS. There are currently 6. In order by the best in my opinion, there is the Schutt Air XP, the Ion 4D, DNA, Riddel, Adams and the Revolution. The reason the Air XP is first is because it has great protection and has an awesome facemask and is built like a top-line helmet. Chris Cooley and Justin Tuck wear this helmet. The Ion 4D for the same reasons of the Air XP. It is worn by LaDainian Tomlinson and a lot more that I don't know the names of. The DNA is underrated. It is just short of the protection of the Ion and the Air XP, is built great and has an awesome facemask. I don't know anyone who wears it but don't make that make you resist. The Riddel is not bad. Yeah, it nothing special, but I guess you can say it bends but it doesn't break. I played with it in my season and it got scratched a lot. But, I liked it because my coached liked the sctraches and said it made me look tough. And by the way I used my helmet a lot carrying the ball. It is used by I would say 40% of the NFL. THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS HELMET. The Adams is pretty much the same thing as the Riddel. People disagree with me on the Revolution. They say is prevents concussions 38% or something like that more than the DNA but it doesn't. In fact, the two kids on my team that had the Revo got a concussion in the first 3 games they played. The pads are made of a material that's like a brick when it's cold, and like a marshmellow when it's hot. And they say that it's the softest helmet but guess what, it's too soft. 90% of the time when a helmet comes off, it's a Revo. This would be a last resort helmet in my opinion. It is used by about 25% of the NFL I would say but those players don't know the real facts. Hope that I helped.
