FYI, I hear that putting stickers on your helmet voids the warranty. That said, it won't stop me from putting stickers on my new helmet!

One of my favorites though is my friend's sticker on the back of his helmet: KILL YOUR TV

No doubt!

I'm hard-headed, so I don't use a helmet.

In reply to:
I heard somewhere that the chemicals on the stickers will do HARM to the helmet ?? Any truth or experience that confirm this ?

yes. if you read the instructions that should've come with your helmet, they probably say not to put stickers on your helmet for that exact reason. I've got an Ecrin Roc and an Ecrin Best, they both said pretty vehmently not to put stickers on them, but that it was OK to drill holes in the helmet, as long as you didn't drill too many. (i'm a caver as well as a climber, so i tend to mount things on my helmets at an alarming rate, but no stickers)

I am going to have every person that I climb with sign my helmet. With a little luck it will go from white, to black with white dots.

I started out by just putting my initials on it so it wouldn't get mixed up with other people's but then when I wasn't able to climb for a while due to a wrist injury, I took a pack of colored sharpies to it and now it kind of looks like a easter egg with all of the squiggly colored lines on it. I get lots of comments about it! Its fun!

Resurrecting an old post...I just added a few stickers to my helmet...

Pink Floyd

Free Mustache Rides

And one from Sonic (fast food restaurant), that says "Warning: Due to product length, protective equipment may be required for first time and novice eaters." There is a picture of a person cramming a cheese coney into their eye. If you think about this in a sexual way it is HILARIOUS.

A big fat old-style firedancer (not the new silvery shiny crap). If you don't know what that is, you were not meant to know

Climb.ZA (check out www.climb.co.za - for some good info on the South African climbing scene)

Both looking a little deshevelled right now, after my helmet took a 450ft fall (fortunately without me attatched) from halway up a route. Felt like a right tit after watching it retrace our steps, disappearing from view in a matter of seconds :? Quite spectacular to watch though! :shock:

Lesson learned: Shave before donning a helmet! Your chin won't itch, and you won't be tempted to undo the strap for a scratch! .... and if you do really need to undo the chinstrap for a bit - DON'T LOOK UP! :roll: hahaha

A few days later, I took the hour and a half walk to the base of the route, and there my helmet was, no more than a few feet away from the cairn marking the start of the route! What good luck!!! A few scratches and patchy remnants of stickers, and a missing headlamp clip, but no noticeable cracks or any other damage though.

Time to start collecting some new stickers!

Y'all have nothing on this. My helmet has been cutom painted by the queen on climbing helmet designs. Take a look at her website and be dazzled by her skill.

Icthus or Icthys (I don't know how to spell it). It's done in kind of a cool stylized design. That would be the Christian fish for those of you playing at home.

I used to have 5.10, access fund, petzl, katadyn, charlet, la sport, on there.

they all came off except for a black Charlet decal that's hard to see on the carbon fiber (i have the HB Dyneema).

I got tired of giving companys free advertising. I teach, people see what I have on my helmet, i was tired of being a billboard.

I'm pretty happy with all of my Charlet gear, and it's not very noticable so I left that one on.

Now, unless I have a working relationship with that company, they're not going on my helmet. My car is another story...

To each their own,
Jim
