Default Extra small heelmets

It is difficult to find a suitable helmet for an 8 yr old with a small head. I tell him small head, bog brain but that does not solve the problem of finding a suitable helmit. The small sizes I have found stilseem too big.

Wow must have a super small head. I have had my girl on machines since before she turned 3. She has been through 3 helmets now she is growing so fast. Try different manufacturers look up their sizing specs and measure his head accordingly

Yes. He takes after his mom. I measured 18" or 46cm, so he is small. I think it is classified as extra small or extra extra small but as yet I have been unable to find anything. Right now he uses. A bike helmet but it would be better with the real thing.

Most of the online retailers have those sizes. So your local dealer should be able to get for u. My dealer ordered in a couple of helmets until I found one that fit. They just put the others on the shelf. They were gone a week later. Bike helmets don't offer the protection of a machine landing on top of them. Have you try ed posting in your local Facebook groups

Got a junior sized skull myself. Ran into this problem with football helmets when I was a kid. Wound up folding newspaper up and putting that between the padding and the helmet. May be worth a try and he'll have room to grow into it.
