    6D Helmets - Best Off-Road Helmet Available. Period!

    www.6DHelmets.com

    This company has only been around for about 1 1/2 years, so many may not be aware of them. This helmet is an investment. It's $740 for the adult, $590 for youth. But it's the best thing you can do for yourself if you ride off-road. They're HQ is in CA. Company was started by former professional motocross racers.

    For anyone that cross trains by riding motocross, woods racing, trail riding, flat tracking, supermoto, or mountain biking, you owe it to yourself to get the best protection money can buy.

    This helmet literally has a suspension system in it. Suspension for your head! It also has amazing ventilation.

    I came across 6D Helmets from the recommendation of a fellow CMRA associate about 8 months ago.

    I was careful to trumpet the innovation of this helmet because I first wanted to try it for myself, do research on it, and I wanted to ask a number of riders what they thought.

    At this point I am 100% confident this is the best helmet ever manufactured.

    If you do any off-road riding, buy this helmet!!!!

    I recently accepted the position as the TX rep for 6D, so I can help answer questions. They can be purchased at numerous TX dealers. Below is more info on the helmet and where it can be purchased.

    Some of the awards the 6D Helmet has won:

    - "The most innovative helmet ever made" (Motocross Action)
    - "Product of the Year" (Dirt Rider)
    - "Product of the Year" (Transworld Motocross)
    - "Product of the Year" (Dirt Bike)
    - "Five Star Rated" (Motocross Action)
    - "One of the coolest advancements in helmets" (VurbMoto)
    - "Revolutionary" (Racer X)
    - "A fresh idea on reducing injuries" (Cycle News)

    Here's a link to the complete 6D dealer list locater on the website. Just type your zip code and it'll bring up the dealers in your area.

    You may recall the horrific crash Zach Bell had at the 2013 Dallas Supercross. He landed on his head from 3 stories high. He had a 6D helmet on. He got up and walked away. He raced the rest of the day after that crash. Here's the video:

    Buy it. Best protection investment you'll make.

    6D only makes an off-road helmet and a mountain bike helmet.

    A few riders have asked me questions about the technology of the 6D helmet.


    Here are two short videos that should address most questions. Thanks!

    6D Helmets will have a representative at Action Motorsports in Decatur, TX Sat., Jan 31st, 9am-6pm for their open house.

    Action has a great assortment of 6D helmets in stock, including the newest 2015 models!

    6D T-shirts and hats to anyone that purchases a 6D helmet at this event. There will also be a 6D EPS helmet liner cut-out that shows the innovative helmet suspension system technology available at the event to see up close.

    Stay tuned for additional 6D in-store appearances at TX dealers in the coming months.

    A 6D street helmet is expected to be released later this year.
