Helmet liner upgrades

[Red Dot]

Hello folks, I'm curious to get some information regarding upgrading the shitty pads/liner of my Emerson Ops Core style FAST helmet. I hate using my helmet for extended periods of time as part of the suspension system digs into my head and the pads get super nasty with sweat.

Ideally I'd like a better fit and pads that won't absorb sweat like a mofo. Don't want to spend $100s on it either since this is just going into a replica.

Let me know what you have used or seen, thanks!

do the real fast pads cost much? They're just styrofoam with some weird padding on them that don't absorb water. I wore my ops core in the worst heat and barely noticed it was on in terms of heat and sweat. The suspension system on the real one is super comfortable.

I think by the time you buy and try all the options out there you'll have spent as much as a real fast.

Ops-core was supposed to have released a lux liner upgrade for the carbon and bump helmets in September. I would wait for that.

The real Team Wendy liners are awesome, the EPIC Air is well over $100 CAD most places, but you should be able to hunt around and find the regular EPIC for less than $100.

It's looking like the CAM-FIT system with an EPIC liner kit from Team Wendy is the way to go... now it's trying to find it for cheap lol.

Actually anyone use the H-Nape suspension system from Team Wendy? Would save over a hundred bucks going for the basic suspension system and EPIC liner, and it must be better then the POS Emerson replica crap.

What is not immediately obvious to people is that the TW cam fit + Epic liner set places the chin cup off-centre. This is a serious consideration.
