Ignore the rip cut!

 

[Jamin_Mayer]

That looks like the schnitzel!

 

[Jamin_Mayer]

But, seriously. It looks promising.

I like how streamline the earmuffs and screen are! Im looking forward for this to come out.

0:51 terrible cut

They probably had the hired actor do it? IDK my guess...he looks like an actor. If not well then I wonder why he cut it like that?

 

[Daniel]

He ripped it.. nothing wrong with that.. you can often get the piece to fly back with a rip. It came off smooth.. give him some credit.. He probably planned for it..

Yeah from the still pics i wondered how the earmuffs worked, couldn't really see how they could be popped out when seeming to mount under the helmet, but the swing back idea looks good. The screen seems to give real good coverage without being to gumby.

any one know what that little tab at the back of the helmet that he puts down is for. My German is a bit rusty

The kids got a kick out of that one, and just quietly, i did too!

 

[Paul Biester]

Das ist gut

 

[trevmcrev]

Just got off the phone with Pfanner & they confirmed they will be doing them in other colors too!

Red/HiViz Yellow is regulation for forestry work over there i'm told, and also Red/Yellow is their corporate branding so they generally use that combo for promotions.

We will have them on display at the ITCC in Sydney this year.

 

[TreeFellar]

When will they be available in the US, or are they.

 

[trevmcrev]

They are due to be released worldwide early march.

We are now taking pre-orders.

Maybe Luke at Treestuff will have them in the US???

 

[Steve Baker]

Can anyone say "TRON"...Seriously though I would rock that whole setup as my halloween costume...

 

[Frax]

Snazzy and well tthought out.

But it does look a bit....how can I say this....Euro.

 

[SumoClimber]

interesting looking helmet, might have to pick one up. Anyone know what they're going to cost?

that little tab looks interesting, my best guess is that it's a tightening system. Might have some engineered flex/give so you get that perfect snug fit every time. Kinda hope so,

 

[RyanCafferky]

With our luck it won't be ANSI approved and we'll get a crappier Americanized version like with their saw pants...

I'm not really not a pessimist, just a realist.

Johannes had a prototype at Expo.

Nice Lid!

Pricetag please?

in US/CAN and AUS $$$$ and British £££s

 

[bonner1040]

It is like 180 Euro or something. Whatever it is I did the conversion when I was preordered for the American sale... It was 220$
