Re: Passive vs. Active Helmets..need ideas

February 18, 2004

I know we have been contacting by email but we also went through this

same feeling you have here. I had read a lot of feedback that 6

months might be too late to start a passive helmet from this web

board. WE went with the helmet and started it and said we would give

it the three months. if as the three months were coming near we

weren't happy we would contact the doc clinic in ohio. Granted that

starts your son at like a year in another band or helmet but I have

read on here of people getting correction then. Like you we were

afriad to try the passive,but have had nothing but good results. I

have a friends whose child has worn two danmar helmets and she's 13

month old and just finished with a fine looking round head. HEr

daughter wore it for 6 months but she also had tort and her's was

more severe. Just a thought!!
