Anyone used the protos helmets before? if so what are your opinions?

Pfanner Protos integral is one of the better arborist helmets available.

In my opinion the best helmet I've ever worn, in the tree or falling. Smooth exterior, nothing to hook on brush, ear muffs tuck inside when not in use, don't hook on branches.  Far superior suspension / harness.  I wear the chin strap even while falling, figure the helmet only does me good if it's on my head when something hits me, likely after I've quickly taken / tried to take evasive action, and I don't notice the chin strap.  Screen fits tight to brim of helmet, and when you flip it up, it tracks very close to the helmet, so again doesn't stick out and catch on stuff.  Very happy with it, would buy another.
