Vaco12 -Bean Bag Helmet

"Originally designed for orthopedic rehabilitation, Vaco12 technology uses vacuum cushions filled with millions of small, round beads to provide better fitting, more protective sports gear. The beads simultaneously provide a snugger, more comfortable fit on your head and are said to absorb impact up to four times more efficiently than traditional foam - just what's needed in sports like skiing and snowboarding in which professional and recreational athletes are constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible."

Do you know the shape of skull is quite different depending on the race? My round skull will not fit right on European helmet. Tight on sides, loose on front and back. The same with ten gallon hat. Kinda sucks when you buy high-dollar ones on-line and not having good fit. Also not fitting tight all around means less protection, so this bean bag idea is seem pretty swell to me. But it is not for motorcycle riding; wonder when they make ones for motorcyclists.
