I'd rather have air cooled jock straps if it's all the same to you, sir.

I see your point here, but realistically why would any player refuse an air cooled helmet if offered?

Old man yells at cloud. Who said they need it? Did you complain about A/C in cars when it first came around?

Maybe you're doing just fine on 150k a year- who needs more?

We are very soft. Started going downhill when they put facemasks on helmets.

I remember 2 a days in Houston with old school coaches and few water breaks. Mornings were the worst though, nothing evaporated as it was basically at dewpoint and felt hot as hell. Would have killed for an AC helmet

I was more impressed they all fit in the same size helmet.

I know Right?/

Like seatbelts in cars, extra cushion and support in your shoes, polarized sunglasses, dri-fit shirts, a pop-up medical tent on the sidelines all because design and engineering advancements suck.

I am curious what it does with the warranty from the manufacturer of the helmets?

Cooling your helmet/head doesn't do that much.

Cooling your neck does. If you can keep the blood flowing into your brain from becoming temp elevated through keeping your neck arteries cool where they are exposed close to the skin versus on the head, where they are insulated, you can prevent elevated body temp better. Granted, your head has a lot of surface area, but it also has limited surface circulation.

Remember when LSU had a leaking library roof and rolled out those sleeping egg pods for the football players? I remember.

The Bear took them boys to Junction and had them put sticker burrs in their jock straps. Look what that did for them. The corndogs are going the wrong way. Jimbo needs to put hornets in their pants and fire ants in their shoes. That is the way, not pillow fighting.

The company that makes them is called Tigeraire and they are from Louisiana:
Quote:

"In 2020 Tigeraire was founded with a simple mission: Make protective equipment more comfortable. We develop airflow products that help athletes, industrial workers, and military personnel stay cool, enabling them to increase their performance and productivity, while feeling much more comfortable."
Wouldn't be surprised if significant tax abatements and state R&D dollars were funneled into this very important business.

I'm guessing it's a brand new, patent pending, technology. They usually roll these things out slowly, see if there are any major issues, before going wide scale.

Most likely the company founders were LSU grads or have ties to that area.

If only kids these days required O2 to go to school like back in the day, now EVERYTHING is air conditioned.

I wonder if LSU can get a vape pipe in the helmet for Harris? Think of the NIL money he could make off that.

Anyone who has worn a football helmet in a football practice or game would gladly accept an air-conditioned version.

Now, this new fangled unlimited water is for sissies though.

My first thought was "won't the extension cords trip them up?"

Agree. The ball chillers on my truck seats were a real game-changer.
