Comfort, Safety and Practicality!
By Michael
from Wichita, KS
on January 16, 2017
I've played at *Nearly* every level that this sport has to offer, (Youth-HS-College, Ju-Co, D-2 and Semi professional) and have played TE - FB - DE - ILB and OLB. I'm currently still playing at the semi professional level, I'm 31 years old and I've never felt more secure with any single piece of headgear that I've owned. Yes it costs a bit more than the generic or older helmets, but when it comes to safety you really do get what you pay for. Adjustable liners are great for the "In-between" sizes of some players Twist and break away mask is added security just in-case something happens where they need the helmet off quickly. It feel's like second skin almost while its wrapped around your head, impressive "Shock absorption" I weigh 270 lbs, am 6'3 and run a 4.6 40yrd dash so I can bring a hit, but I don't feel like the helmet compromises in any way. Extended jaw area keeps the helmet snug to your head as well. I really can't say enough about this helmet, this and the new shoulder-pads i purchased from Sportsunlimitedinc (both suggested by Iknowfootball (youtube) have not disappointed I look forward to getting several more years of use out of them. 5 stars all around*****

Worth every penny
By Ross
from Fair Oaks, CA
on November 11, 2015
Verified Buyer
Purchased helmet for my son for HS Frosh team. Compared to Riddell helmet school provided, this is light years ahead in safety and comfort. Fits like a glove because of the 5 air zones - it provides a great custom fit even at the jaw. Fairly light weight and withstands great contact. Son plays FB/TE and MLB, and he has not had a single issue with helmet.
Pros
  • protection, comfort and fit.
Cons
  • New chin strap systems takes some getting use to, but once you have it down, it is much better than the old style snaps

This helmet causes headaches
By FAIRGUY75
from Los angeles, CA 90240
on September 8, 2015
I purchased a helmet for my son who had been bugging me for a long time that he wanted the speed flex. I purchased the helmet and that is when the nightmare started. Be cautious when purchasing anything from Riddell and they will not exchange anything. My son has had had constant headaches ever since he started using this helmet. My son is going on his 7th year of playing football and has never had issues with Schutt or Xenith. I contacted Riddell and talked to Anabelle who has obviously been there a lot longer than she should because she was no help at all. She sent me 1" jaw pads which were supposed to be slimmer than the ones that came in the helmet but they were the same. I am out of almost $500 because Riddell refuses to return my helmet for a refund due to him using it twice which is how he found out he was getting headaches. We are now using a Xenith with no problems. Stay away from Riddell and especially the speed flex. Bad defective helmet.
Pros
  • looks cool
Cons
  • Causes headaches

speed flex not as great as you think
By Shaun W.
from Laramie Wyoming
on July 19, 2015
I've tried lots of helmets, and while the speed flex is probably the most comfortable helmet on the market. I don't like it while wearing pads. It has a large offset design and will interfere with your head mobility, especially when you need to turn your head quickly. If you have a long neck, I guess that will offset the mobility problem. I just couldn't wear it and had to switch to a Xenith epic. I would also recommend the Rawlings Tachyon helmet. Small offset design helmets are much more fluid for skill position players.
Pros
  • Extremely comfortable
  • great looking design
Cons
  • Bulky and immobile.

This helmet is just sick! It looks like nothing we have ever seen before in our 9 years of football experience with our son, who is now in high school. We bought this for him because of the safety aspect, so the look of it was a bonus.
Cons
  • It seems to run a little big. We bought a large based on the size chart, however, we are going to have to return and exchange for a medium because it is just too big.

Slick look and very comfortable. Only bad thing is the bulky look and how big it appears on your head.
