I was given a Kali Phenom by a family friend that is a rep for Kali. (Hey, who turns down a free helmet of this quality). I was skeptical of a new brand, but the helmet fits quite well, vents nicely in hot weather, and the padding is great and very well-placed. I'm bald, and the pads are placed strategically so that my sweat does not run into my eyes as it has always done with other helmets.
