Tonfly TFX Info & Ordering
The much-awaited impact-rated Tonfly TFX full face skydiving helmet is now available for ordering!
Not only is the helmet unique in its modular design and rated head protection, it's also the most custom-fit helmet available coming in 36 different size configurations.
To place an order for a TFX, you can visit our ChutingStar Skydiving Gear SuperStore in Marietta GA to be properly sized for the helmet with the Tonfly TFX Fitting Kit, or you can follow the measuring guide in our online listing at this link. Either process can be used to determine the shell size, central lining size and secondary lining size.
Tonfly prefers skydivers to use the in-person fitting as the reliable operation of the modular visor system is dependent on a proper fit. Because the helmet is so different from what is currently available in the industry, they also want to make sure jumpers get a hands-on feel of the helmet, the fit and the operation before placing the order. But if you can't get to our shop, there is a way to take the measurements at home.
Here is the info on taking your own measurements:

Here is the info on taking your own measurements:
- Head Circumference: Measure the circumference of the head at the forehead height, being careful that the tape is horizontal and has the right tension (not too loose, not too tight)
- Face Circumference: Extend the tape measure around the face, being careful to pass it on top of the chin, above the ears up to the top back of the head.
- Face Width: Measure the face width by positioning 2 rulers (or similar objects), at the base of the ears and make sure they are held vertically and parallel between them. Extend the tape horizontally and measure the distance between the 2 points.
- Send us a photo of the Face Width measurement being taken.
- Helmet impact-rated rating (EN966)
- Personal eye protection rating on visor (EN166)
- Complies with Skydiving Helmet Standard XP S 72-600
- One hand visor and chin modular opening system
- Antiallergic, removable, washable liner
- 36 different sizing options
- Helmet plus visor ventilation systems
- Mix and match colors for shell, chin and side plates
