About this deal

The Riddell SpeedFlex Facemask is the perfect addition to your football helmet. Designed to offer maximum protection and performance, this facemask is made from high-quality stainless steel that is both durable and lightweight. With a unique design that allows for improved visibility and breathability, the SpeedFlex Facemask is ideal for players of all levels. Schutt has worked to cut weight as much as possible while still being as protective as possible. In recent years they’ve introduced the Helmet Stabilization System (HSS), lighter models, and they continue to use their TPU design.

Every year following testing, the NFL publishes a list of prohibited helmets. These models are excluded from that day forwards and forbidden for use on-field in the NFL. Also, helmets over ten years old are automatically relegated from the list. Final Thoughts– When you think of helmets in 2020, your first thought is likely the SpeedFlex. Do some shopping to make sure it’s the right one for your position and body type, but I’d be rather comfortable using it in-game. Thirty-one helmets achieved the best performance rating in lab testing and have approved status in 2020.

Strategic combination of padding materials inside of the helmet absorb impact energy and retain their position and purpose over extended durations of play In 1922 John T Riddell invented the world’s first removable cleats. The company found initial success in manufacturing innovative performance shoes, and in 1939 they invented the “plastic shell” – the world’s first plastic football helmet. It later became the famous Riddell RT2 model. Before the outbreak of WW2, General Patton requested the newly-famous Riddell to get in touch with him at the war department. The army needed to find a support mechanism for their new M1 combat helmet. Riddell rose to the task, and the football manufacturer’s design passed with flying colors. Following the war and buoyed by the success of the 60’s Riddell has gone from strength to strength and is probably the most recognized brand in the sport today. Schutt – A brief history The Riddell SpeedFlex football helmet was one of the most anticipated football helmets of all time. The design and technology are going to change the way everyone looks at football helmets. A flexible panel has been added to the front of the helmet to reduce the impact to the head of the player. It also features the option of a Cam-Loc chinstrap. The Riddell SpeedFlex football helmet is a step towards the future of football helmet technology. Specifications

From weight to design to features, the article above details it all. Just remember, F7 vs SpeedFlex isn’t about which is better, but which is better for you. What is the most worn helmet in the NFL? Do NOT use an inflation needle other than those specially designed for Riddell helmets. These needles are the correct length, and should not puncture the liners if properly usedFans and players rush out to buy the latest models every year, but who are the most famous helmet brands, and which of their models are approved by the NFL? Here is the answer. Riddell is widely known for its line of football helmets. In 2002, Riddell released a new helmet design called the Revolution or "Revo" for short [9] The newer design was released in response to a study on concussions. The design became popular in the NFL and NCAA, being used by notables such as Peyton Manning, Dwight Freeney, Casey Hampton, and Brady Quinn, as well as having been used by Eli Manning during the 2005 season. Pros– The SpeedFlex Diamond offers Riddell’s latest technology that used to be exclusive to the pros. Carbon’s Diamond technology has tested incredibly well during its very short lifetime; all the perks of the original SpeedFlex with even further improved technology! There are four prominent helmet manufacturers in the NFL. They are Riddell, Schutt, VICIS, and Xenith. These four brands dominate the NFL approved helmet list. There are currently 31 recommended models on the list, 13 of them are Schutt, 11 Riddell, 6 Xenith, and 1 VICIS model. Riddell models occupy the top three spots and the Riddell SpeedFlex Precision Diamond (R41106) proved the safest in testing. There’s our top 5, but we’re not done yet! It was hard to narrow the list down to just 5 helmets, so I’ve got two Honorable Mentions I’m going to briefly highlight.

Cons– Every Xenith helmet has been criticized rather heavily for its looks; quite frankly the general consensus is that they’re hideous. Customization options are rather limited; you have a rather small selection of facemasks and chinstraps to choose from. Lawyer Thomas Girardi represents dozens of the players in two of the complaints. He says the goal is to enact "necessary changes" to protect future generations of players, as well as "set[ting] up a medical process so [the plaintiffs] can have medical attention for this injury as long as they need it", in addition to financial compensation. The players appeared to have allies in Washington. A Senate subcommittee held hearings on misleading safety claims made by sports equipment companies. One thing is certain: it's going to be a long slog for both sides, without a clear endgame. For example, the players are seeking judgments "in the millions of dollars," though no specific numbers have been listed in the court documents. The consensus from lawyers on both sides is that the lawsuits could take years to be sorted out. Nobody associated with the players, the league, or Riddell was even "willing to guess how long it could be" during discussions with the AP. The VICIS ZERO1, worn by Pat Mahomes and Russell Wilson, topped every study it was entered into and was heavily funded by the NFL and players that invested in the company, but nonetheless the company experienced some financial issues and declared bankruptcy in 2019. Reformed under new ownership, and developing a new helmet, VICIS should be worth keeping an eye on. The ZERO1 itself bolstered an astronomical price tag, and coupled with an uncertainty of its obtainability (currently unavailable on the web) and future, it missed our top 5. If you can get your hands on one, you’d be very happy wearing it. After much anticipation, the Riddell SpeedFlex Adult Helmet has arrived and is poised to change the way we look at football helmets. Built with the latest technological features to lower force from impacts at high and low velocities, the Riddell SpeedFlex is like no other helmet on the market.Flexibility engineered into the helmet’s shell, face mask and face mask attachment system with hinge clips reduces impact force transfer to the athlete Many top players and professionals swear by F7 helmets for their games. Are SpeedFlex helmets safer?

Riddell teamed up with 3D printing company Carbon to produce 3D printed padding for their custom helmets in tandem with Riddell’s Precision-Fit technology. In 2020 they released a retail version of it, but this one is available to the public without the eye-popping price tag and the need to be scanned for your own model. Final Thoughts– The Vengeance Z10 LTD is a very impressive, comfortable, lightweight helmet that I would look into using if you’re at a skills position or favor a lighter piece of equipment. Cam-Loc retention system is an easier way to adjust your chinstrap on the fly. Upgrade to Cam-Loc Hard Cup Chin Strap They offer robust protection but, based on certain tests, the F7 has a slight edge in safety. What is the difference between a SpeedFlex and a F7? The NFL alleged that players knew the risks when they made football their career and that there was "no misconduct or liability" on the league's part. [22] Players intended to show there was "a history of literature showing that multiple blows to the head can cause long-term damage" that got buried by the NFL and that the league also "fraudulently concealed the long-term effects of concussions," including the increased risk of dementia.About Us- Worldwide Locations-Rosemont, IL". Easton-Bell Sports. Archived from the original on 2014-06-20. From the very beginning of its existence, Xenith has been making some of the more unique and scientifically driven helmets on the market. Their newest helmet, the Shadow XR continues that trend.
