Hello dear listener. Before you go too deep, know that this is a re-broadcast of Luke Mehal's

Dirtbag State of Mine podcast, and is interviewed with yours truly. So if you heard it over there,

or the idea of me talking more about myself than I already do seems grueling to you,

maybe just click over to the next pod and your feed and get back to me with the next

synormal cast drops in a few days. Cheers. You are listening to the Enormo cast.

So what's your tarot excuse for not wearing a helmet? Too heavy? Not anymore. Too hot?

You literally wear a beanie in your sweltering climbing gym, bro.

Too dumb looking? Well, you might have me there, but you know what else is dumb looking?

A cracked skull. So yes, 25 years ago all those excuses might have had legs,

but black diamonds modern helmets shut them all down. The vapor, vector, or vision are all great

lightweight foam helmets that do what modern helmets should do, which is make you forget

their even on your head. And if foam feels too flimsy, check out the more traditional full plastic

and suspension half-dome. No matter which you choose, they all sport sleek headlamp clips,

UIA rated protection, and a price point, one-one thousandth of your average head trauma surgery.

But listen, the oil we at the Enormo cast really just want you to consider getting your freaking

brain wrapped in a helmet. And while we'd love for you to sport black diamond, frankly,

there's a lot of great lightweight helmets out there and it's time to reconsider your prejudices

for the old brain bucket, even when you're quote, just sport climbing.

So support the Enormo cast by checking out black diamonds line of modern helmets at blackdiamandequipment.com

or your local shop. But if you don't find what you like there, look around. And please,

get your brain behind some foam and plastic before it's too late.

I've tried just about everything to get you to drop some serious cash on high-end sportiva climbing shoes.
