I'd be happy to see a photo of someone wearing a half and full face visor Gath helmet..... See how they fit.
I can't try one one, nearest seller is 2hr flight and half day drive from me...

I have used the gedi half visor. Great idea but didn't work all that well. Really distorts vision. I ended up going back to sunglasses.

Heres my latest total sunblock creation with big polarised sunnies for max eye protection and vision.
No having to soak your face in chemicals each kite session :cool2: Protection in summer and winter..
