Definitely one of the helmets of all time. This gives a very "designed in the 1970s" vibe. Lots of organic curves and untextured fiberglass/plastic. Not enough fins or ribs to be from the 80s, but too much white for the 60s.
At the time I'm reading this the title notes that this design is from 1985. Here's an article I came across with more info.
Honestly that's older than I was expecting. But the 80s does make sense, a lot closer to the 70s than the 2010s year I was expecting.
