WTF??? they can't 3D print one???Self identify as female? Title IX: "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance."
Thread is useless without pix
“Self identify as female? Title IX: “
What has that to do with the article?
WTF??? they can't 3D print one???I’m guessing it is not so much the size as the shape. He’s probably brachycephalic with a really fat face. Of course I’m just guessing without making any racial judgements.
I’m dolichocephalic, #8 hat size. They make helmets a lot bigger than I need.
Player in question. Big head? Meh.
Check out the big brain on Brad.
I’m an 8
A common measurement for me
(I wish)
I used to be 7 and 3/4
A solid 8 now
Biggest readily available hat size
I’m six five
I need a big hat to look like normal cow poke or rancher
Sorta Cohen Brothers Cowboy looking
‘Tis a liability problem. NCAA and its schools have big pockets which can’t risk the potential liability from him using his ersatz, non-standard, helmet getting knocked in the head playing a dangerous position in a dangerous sport and then suing because they let him play that way. Making a fits one helmet to same standards as the others and doing enough testing to certify it as equal probably costs a small fortune. Given a profitable payment I’m confident the manufacturers would make one, but the Lacrosse market is probably too small for them to eat the price and write it off to goodwill. So he either needs to find a rich Lacrosse sugar daddy who’ll pay whatever the manufacturers need, run a go fund me site to raise the same or accept this as a good lesson in basic economics and tort law.
At 19 all he can think of is playing Lacrosse? Pro Lacrosse in the US pays $10-25k/year without health insurance. Not a promising life business model. Maybe he could recruit enough fools to play ‘natural’ lacrosse without the protective gear and with a strong enough liability waiver signed by all. It’s at least a possible as a non-Mugglized Quidditch league. Or he could switch to something saner, like Ultimate Frisbee.
He could always find work as a fighter pilot...
As someone with a 7 7/8 Stetson that is a little too tight, and a XXXL HJC motorcycle helmet in the garage I can relate. The world just isn’t comfortable out here towards the edge of the bell curve. Baseball caps? Forget about it. Even with the adjustment bands let all the way out they perch ridiculously on top of my head.
Never mind.
I understand his issue. Same thing happens to me when I go condom shopping...
I also have a big head....can barely fit through doors...lol
Seriously though, perhaps a helmet could be fabricated for him with a high-end 3-D printer?
