I’ve been wondering about this for so long. As soon as I get my f7 I’m definitely gonna do this.

Nice, thanks for watching!

@tylerhammack4886 Год назад

You could also use a lighter loctite on the visor clip screw. Purple loctite would stop the screw from backing out

@Zayne_24 Год назад

If I put lighter loctite on it won’t it be hard to get the camlock off if for some reason your league doesn’t allow this?

@blipowicz Год назад

i’ve done this on my f7 but i used actual screws an a lock washer and it hasn’t loosened in like 6 months

@greengridiron Год назад

Interesting DIY. Glad that worked for you!

@brandonflorkey Год назад

@@mikeyenriquez1262if you take the screw that comes with the strap to a hardware store you can find the matching screw size and thread size. Then just buy a longer version.

has it fallen out or are there any complaints i wanna do this too

@alexrotaru6616 Год назад

loctite on the thumb screw and take a thin piece of rubber and sandwich it between the two, might limit the movement or just add more friction.

@braydenmudd8319 Год назад

i just used a washer on the thumb screw and the pivoting isn’t that big of a deal once you get use to it

@kincademagar2661 Год назад

i have been interested in building a cam lock type system that is compatible will all helmets. if this is something that green grid iron would be interested in building aswell please reach out! great work love the videos

@greengridiron Год назад

Let’s see what you got!

@joeyrichey5069 Год назад

0:06 could you use a small lock washer inside? Also, the clear fingernail polish idea sounds like it would work as well. I assume this would work on most older helmets if you were putting one together for display only?

@greengridiron Год назад

The lock washer still wouldn’t hold up during game use. Constant on and off would make the cam-loc housing to move BUT for display use, it’s totally acceptable

@toniegolum 9 месяцев назад

Thanks

@user-gn3wb1ro5i 9 месяцев назад

Cool look

@Alex-gp8qz Год назад

I get what he’s saying about the cam lock system pivoting due to the f7 not having the same design as the speed flex but a normal buckled chin strap will pivot regardless because of the design so I don’t see that entirely being an issue. And as for the screws coming lose I’ve had the normal buckles on any helmet come loose and separate from the t nut on the back

@greengridiron Год назад

Good points! The cam-loc function on the speedflex really just keeps that chinstrap super secure, compared to installing it on a F7 helmet.

@stxgegreen-3731 Год назад

you can use a different screw instead of visor clips

@jfide650 Год назад

A little clear fingernail polish on the threads should sufficiently stop the knob from backing out.

@brysonpabst8852 Год назад

@joshchon1153 Год назад

Hey I’ve been wondering, can I replace the quick release twist clips on top of the F7 to just a quarter turn clips instead? I like the looks of the quarter turns and it helps fit visors better I feel

Ok Question would a cam-lock chin strap work on a vicis 02???????

@greengridiron 2 месяца назад

Cam-loc chinstraps are made to be compatible with the Riddell SpeedFlex and Axioms only. You can try to make it work like we did on an F7 in this video, but we do not recommend it.

@TannerC12 11 месяцев назад

Me and my friend did this and our cam lock’s didn’t move we used the border screws instead of visor clips

@greengridiron 11 месяцев назад

Hey nice job!

@XIXVOLTAG3 Год назад

Is it possible to do it with a vicis zero2?

@greengridiron Год назад

The cam-locs won't fit on the Vicis Zero2, since it is technically only compatible with the SpeedFlex.

@saxczva9ix Год назад

Does this work for the speed or just the f7

@greengridiron Год назад

The cam-locs will only work well on the SpeedFlex, since they are not meant for Speed helmets.

In theory you could, but it's not a great choice for durability or longevity. I'd recommend any of the other options shown in the video.

@vincentnovak5324 Год назад

I guess a large strap fits a xl helmet thanks

@gtrscort1 Год назад

Would this work on the regular speed helmet?

@greengridiron Год назад

Cam-Locs are built for SpeedFlex helmets, the Speed helmets don't have the housing to fit a cam-loc so it probably won't work

You could try, however the cam-locs only fit well on the speedflex.
