            Comments about PRO-TEC Ace Water Helmet:

            I used this helmet for two summers paddling white water in my Duckie on the Colorado River when I lived in Moab. I only dumped my boat once in violent water, and was real glad to have my helmet. I usually wore a baseball cap under the helmet to help keep the sun out of my eyes. It is light weight and comfortable, and still gives me a feeling of protection. Would not go into white water without a helmet.

            Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

              Comments about PRO-TEC Ace Water Helmet:

              I work as a river guide and have wore this helmet for two seasons now. Its comfortable, dries quickly, has excellent ventilation, and is relatively inexpensive. I can't say anything for it's effectiveness or durability, because I have not yet hit my head on a rock. But I do see alot of other river guides wearing this exact same helmet.
