I’ve notice that Chad and his kids are using Bell helmets as of this year. Does anyone know the reason for the switch after a decade plus with Fox? Just interested.

Would those be all individual deals? Ex. Helmet, gear, boots, googles.

With his YT channel growing I'm sure he has become somewhat more desirable to brands. Probably got a deal, good for him! I wouldn't be surprised to see him get a new gear deal for him and the kids.

I thought Ive heard Chad mention that the days of getting handfuls of free fox gear have been gone for awhile. Im sure Helmets are even tougher to come by.

Safer and more comfortable? Kid's safety?

The video the day he was teaching his oldest a lesson, they were all in V3’s. That video was only 2-3 weeks ago.

Probably not a popular opinion, but if Reedy had of been allowed to ride that bike for the whole 02 SX season, he would have beat RC for the 03 title.

A bit strange though, as I recall a post by Chad a couple of years ago, kind after 22 Motorsports folding, saying something like he was proud to announce that he was a FOX lifetime ambassador or such. But, I might be wrong.

Now he's wearing an Alpinestar helmet while his kids are wearing Bell. Can't boil down to money, right?

If you watch the video where they get the new Astars stuff, they get helmets and try them on. I assume they just didn’t fit well or they didn’t find them comfortable.
