Snell helmet ratings allowed for 2017
Snell helmet ratings allowed for 2017
Ok... I looked back a bunch of pages before I started this.
What's both the SCCA and etr policy for what's going to be allowed for this year?
I have a snell sa2005 helmet. Is that still useable for both local and national events our is it time to get a new one?
Better to ask now than 2-weeks before dixie

Re: Snell helmet ratings allowed for 2017
Your helmet should be good until 2020 season.
I think it's the current standard (2015) and the two previous (2010, 2005)

I read if the 2005 helmet in question is in good condition it's use is extended until January 1, 2017

Re: Snell helmet ratings allowed for 2017
That's what I thought. Back when the 2015 helmet came out late, they talked about extending it one more year. I thought that it was no good after last year.
It gets confusing sometimes. Probably ferrying a new closed face anyway since I think I'll be doing more track stuff in the future.

Re: Snell helmet ratings allowed for 2017
Who knows of a place online or local with reasonable cost for helmets?
Re: Snell helmet ratings allowed for 2017
I got mine at Cycle Supply off Cedar Bluff. Not the cheapest around but I got to try different ones.
