    now I deal with these guys a fair bit, and sometimes they are pretty good deals, but c'mon, any proofreader worth a damn should have noticed this...

    That is ridiculous....I should e-mail this pic to their headquarters, and say I will not buy from them again if they promote no gear wearing activities as such. Is that in A-town Reg?

    Nah, our store is way smaller. I'm gonna bet it's either LA or down near you...

    I sent an email with lots of nasty words and signed it with stuka's name. lol j/k. But i did send an email stating that I would no longer buy products from them due to this advertisement (not the stunting part, the lack of gear part). And I did mention that the ad even mentioned discounting helmets that were on clearance.

    Did anyone pick up one of their invisiHelmets? :wink:

    I searched their website and oneIndustry's but did not see any. I figured they'd be in the box that looked empty, but maybe they were on the clearance stand. They appear to be very lightweight.

    No, the invisihelmet was too expensive, even with the discount.

    I agree with you Reg, not the smartes advertising move.
