German or kaiser style helmets....

It is becoming mandatory to wear a wakeboarding helmet when hitting kickers and sliders etc.... All the helmets out there seem to have the same style as you're used to seeing on begginers at the ski hill lol, except for the ones from capix, which look kinda descent. It is just a helmet, but these styles do not suit my tastes. I have been looking for a kaiser or german style helmet for wakeboarding and have come up with nothing. All I have been able to find is the novelty motorcylce helmets, but who knows how they will hold up to being drenched with water and how suitable they would be. I added some pictures of the style I am refering too......has anyone looked for a helmet such as these or has everyone just settled for the pro-tec fishbowls?

I have a CAPIX,


My friend has one too,

he was riding with his on and he came down after hitting a rail and tried to do some flip, well it didnt turn out to good because the bill came down and broke his nose when he hit the water.

It was snug too.


So I sed a hacksaw and trimmed my bill off of mine!
