Re: Need your input Ladies (You design your own helmet)
I think we will probably have a small hint of pink somewhere on the helmet. It may be subtle, but it will be there somewhere.

Re: Need your input Ladies (You design your own helmet)
DucRacer748:
If you fit Shoei or Arai helmets well, then these will fit you. But before we decide on a 'female' design I need to canvas a large portion of the female demographic. So based on your inputs, I'm leaning towards purple and green as possible primary colors, and although these might be prevalent on the helmet, I'm still inclined to see a hint of pink somewhere on the helmet. Even if it is very subtle.
But I do kinda like the possiblity of seeing two 'female' style helmets. One with an underwater theme to it and one with a flying/sky theme to it.
So......I am going to throw some ideas or suggestions out here...they may be a hit or maybe not.
I am thinking like possibly pink laundry baskets and some green mini-vans with subtle pink accents?
Or maybe for the underwater scheme some washing machines and dishwashing gloves
And the "flying/sky" theme could illustrate a clothesline with laundry blowing in the wind
But seriously, I very interested in seeing the new products that Duc's company will be coming out with. I want to see more because I am very interested and would love to support one of our fellow CBRWorld members.

Re: Need your input Ladies (You design your own helmet)
Well, we're still a few months from getting the scheme to the painters, as the painter currently is working on our Stealth Air Force helmet.
But I've have given the idea's to the CEO decisions won't be made for a while, so the more inputs we get the better.
Somehow though, I don't think any of Tracker's idea's will make it into production. Not many 1950's housewives riding sportbike's these days, that would want that kind of a helmet. Just a guess on my part though.

here is a a maybe cool give awayish gadget with your helmet:
A D-ring that is large enough to clip the helmet to the bike.Maybe locks too. combo style or key? 
ALSO:
Sorry ladies, was looking for helmet info for my lady.I want to see more (women)of you out there riding! 
Been to your website for the helmets. I like you flip up. also do you plan on making an Army version of your "ghost rider" helmet.
I mean, we do have more aircraft then the airforce more boats then the navy and WAYYYY more infantry then Marines!
GOD BLESS US ALL TOO!
(no offense to my brothers and sisters in their respective services! just a "playful" ribbing!)

Re: Need your input Ladies (You design your own helmet)
my girlfriends helmet is custom air brushed, it's a metallic pink with flakes. It almost gives it a purple look, what do you think about it?

Yes, Akuma Helmets will be creating both a Devil Dawg Marine Helmet and an Apache Army Helmet.
And more boats than the Navy? More aircraft than the Air Force? What have you been smoking?

Thanks for the helmet for the Army! Sounds cool... bet it will look cool too!Will be using the new ACU pattern?
Does you modualr helmet come with all the nift features as the "specality" type? the lens.. the LED's? I have an HJC large (C14 i think). since there are no dealers near me. How close is your helmets to fiting my large skull?
BTW:
Yes, we have more boats then the navy,,,, if it floats then we have more,,, destroyers,aircraft carriers,they are differant navy has more of those.
Yes, to aircraft..... if it flies then we have more... Now, F-14-F-16,F-22's and C130/C141/C-5's... then no.again if it FLIES OR FLOATS we have more... strange as it may sound we just do.
to answer your question of smoking??? TIRES! LOL

Re: Need your input Ladies (You design your own helmet)
The design for the Army helmet isn't done yet. If a camo pattern is used, then it will mimic the digital pattern.
As for the modular helmet (flip-up is what you mean?), I'm not sure. I don't have any interaction with that helmet. You can always e-mail or call our shop regarding that particular helmet. And in terms of size, our helmets fit like a Shoei helmet. My medium shoei, fit exactly like our medium helmets.
Now, for the "boats", unless the Army has more than 100,000 boats hidden somewhere, you don't. The Navy has downsized to 300 ships this is true (boats are not the same thing as ships), but you have to remember that we also have thousands and thousands of small boats, rescue boats, riverine boats, seal boats, amphibious craft, etc... Not to mention, that every Marine boat is still considered a Navy asset. But good try. 
And as for the Air Force vs the Army, here are the official numbers of aircraft for all services. Even, if I let the Army have every single helo and A-10, you still lose out to the Air Force 1815 to 2372. (I also did not include T-38 trainers for the Air Force.) So, I'm not sure where you are getting your figures?
The following is the listed number of Aircraft for the US Military as of 2003:
