Description
I'm not sure about the rest of the world but Stackhats were the "in" thing for Aussie riders/skaters about 15 years ago. This is a much funkier version of myself about 7 years old with the now kinda retro helmetRelated content

well, it looks insanely hot o_o
I kinda wish there was something like that nowaday instead of those ugly, waist-at-knee-height pants fad.

I can still remember the neck pain caused by wearing these beautiful protective fashion statements as a skinny 8 year old.
You couldn't go past the stock standard orange one. You had to be careful if you dropped it through, you'd smash the concrete. My sister got me an Atari shirt a few years back too.
Aussies unfashionable????...Please. Anyone remember wearing hats with the flap on the back, having a mullet or ratstail and wearing fluro tracksuit pants? That combo speaks for itself.
Nice image by the way.

They actually found out that when wearing a stackhat, if you stacked you were more likely to injure yourself. Apparently a few cases happened where the plastic splintered and alot of kids got ever so slightly mushed up heads as ledgend goes. Cool piece though. Just mind you dont get Stackhelmet on your blood, or blood on your Stackhelmet, which evers more important.

Oh man talk about aussie kids most embarrassing moment number 12. When you turn up to school for bike education and you're the only one wearing a stack hat.
Aussie kids most embarrassing moment number 13. Getting sick off chewing the strap because you thought it tasted like vegimite.
