The best skate helmet? The Destro Helmet

As of 2011 the S-One Lifer Helmet has replaced the S-One Destro Helmet. more info here.

The Destro Helmet is one of the most protective helmets in the S-One collection. It is one of the best fitting skate helmets available. The Destro fits low on your head and it is Cpsc certified.

Max DuFour has been wearing the Destro for the last year. He likes to wear helmets that have the hard foam and are CPSC certified because he has gotten knocked out in "soft foam" helmets. And since he started wearing "Hard Foam" helmets he has taken a few good slams and hasn't been knocked out.

"If you are skating vert or big stuff, I highly recommend wearing a hard foam helmet like the Team Helmet or the Destro Helmet."

Steve Steadham has been wearing "soft foam" helmets since the 70's and just starting wearing a hard foam helmet last week. He stopped by to pick up a new helmet and tried
the Destro Helmet on and was surprised a "hard foam" helmet fit him right.

"I have always worn the soft foam helmet because they fit lower on my head... The Destro  is

the first "hard foam" helmet that fits low on my head... I had no idea that "hard foam" helmets were much more protective than "soft foam" helmets.

Pro-Tec Pool Party 2010 Recap by: Lester Kasai

Dang... the Masters... let me go down the list... Cab busted out so many tricks and was as smooth as butter... Chris Miller fast as heck launching huge frontside airs into the round pool covering well over twelve feet across... Lance doing some of the sickest lines I've ever seen in that pool hitting ever spot... Nicky Guerrero busting out tricks I didn't see him do in practice... Duane Peters hanging up on fakie ollies and stomping sick frontside rocks... Eric Nash killing it with sick lines and huge airs... Tony Mag spinning front fives in the square... Hosoi trying backside fives in the square just like the old days... Grosso doing 28 block boardslides and all these dudes are in there 40's... it's simply incredible.

The Pros are at a whole new level in the new bowl... Bucky completely blew my mind with his gay twist over the middle hip and his frontside alley oops around the corner... Rune was blasting so high and spinning some of the most stylish fives I've ever seen... Omar was all over that bowl... blasting airs and doing the most complex combinations of switch and lip tricks... Pedro Barros is so insane with his numerous variations of fives, huge airs and one of the sickest styles I've seen... Nolan Munroe? Damn... humongous slow motion fives and crazy ear breaking madonna's around the corner were simply unbelievable... Josh Rodriquez... that kid is coming up so fast... he just leaned fives right before the contest and he had some of the best lines in there... like the triple hip air line (air on the round shallow hip, then air the middle hip and then air the shallow square hip)... Alex Perelson doing backside 50/50's to revert around the corner and frontside tailgrab reverts were mind boggling... Josh Borden style for miles, fives and a huge bag of lip tricks... Bob Burnquist with his switch everything, I never know which way he's riding and his creativity is unmatchable... Lincoln Ueda definitely goes the highest in that bowl... he's over the fence and his body jars are the biggest I've ever seen... that boy's got some power.

My personal highlight of the ProTec Pool Party was watching Jeff Grosso stick out his bare belly and rub it while getting ready to tail drop on the combi's middle hip... then he tried to spin a five in the round.  Showmanship at it's finest.

I have to say how amazing the Vans combi is now... that new surface is perfect and in my opinion the best pool I've ever skated... it's a great time to be a bowl skater... Thanks Steve Van Doren for the new bowl and another intense bowl contest.

Steve Steadham / Destro Helmet

Steve Steadham stopped by the S-One warehouse to pick up a new helmet for the Protec Pool Party tomorrow. He tried on the new Lifer Helmet and couldn't believe how great it fit him. (Steve has been wearing soft foam, non-certified helmets since the 70's and always thought the hard foam, CPSC certified helmets fit too high on your head) 


 "The Lifer Helmet is the first hard foam helmet that fits low. I like it." - Steve Steadham


Steve will be wearing the Lifer Helmet at the Pro-Tec Pool Party tomorrow.
