Has anyone outfitted their program with these? I've heard a couple negatives and we have about 20 helmets to buy and only 7k in our account. Looking for your thoughts on this brand? Thanks
Also, do any of you use Big Athletics for your apparel/equipment orders?

90% of our JH and HS athletes are in Xenith helmets. We are in year three of these helmets and there are very few, if any, negatives compared to other helmets. We truly believe that they better protect our athletes. The fit is tighter and the kids seem to like them.

I did not like them but it has been about 3ish years since I've been at a program that used them.
They were a PIA to fix and the kids did not like the fit. Kids and coaches liked the Revo Speeds better.
Maybe they're different now? not sure

I actually like them, and the kids do too. They still prefer the revo over the Xenith obviously but it isn't a bad route for the money.
I don't like how he chin strap threads through. Not a quick fix if one breaks in a game, but that is really the biggest negative I can think of.

What percentage of HS players have their helmets properly inflated any given day?
How many coaches and trainers check the air in their player's helmets everyday?
Who is responsible for making sure helmets are properly inflated?
Xenith reduces liability, saves time, and is a 5 star helmet. We like them.

Actually, I commend them for their handling of this. They owned up to it and are taking care of the situation. I already checked all our serial numbers and we weren't affected. Other school in our district are and Xenith is sending out helmets quickly to take care of it.

Unacceptable I don't care how they handle it we are going to have 2 weeks of practice without helmets we are in big trouble of losing a bunch of kids.

I like the helmet. The customer service is crap. I would say the Speed flex is the best helmet out there, followed closely by the Xenith Epic.
