Michigan Helmets

[Vapor 0]

I was wondering what the Wolverines use on there helemets, for the yellow. Is it a sticker?

Im pretty sure it is is painted on.

I thought it was just yellow electrition tape.

no, they get them professionally done. The roller hockey team has tape. It looks really stupid if you ask me.

Is that new? I remember my friend who went to Michigan tell me a few years ago that it was just yellow electrical tape.

I remember a kid on CB saying that he went to a game this season and it was electrical tape. Also, I heard a story about a bantam coach that called the Michigan coach and asked what they used to pain they're helmets, and he said they just used electrical tape (maybe just kidding around, who knows)...

Yeah it was me who went to the game NPUCK. They do use yellow electrical tape on the helmets, but tit really looks like paint. There's no creases or anything....looks like it'd take a while to do.

They're probably decals.

Nope, the helmets are solid navy, at least before the tape/paint job.

Not sure for the Ice team, but the roller hockey side is Electrical tape for sure, looks bad up close.

Yeah I also remember someone other than #77 saying that they used electrical tape. Wouldn't surprise me, everything else would be pretty expensive. I just thougt of this, wouldn't the tape void the warrenty of the helmet though?

No, but paint makes it illegal to use

There are a limited number of places that are certified to paint helmets.

they are decals, i went to the locker room once, and the helmets had decels on them.

Heres a site with a bunch of pics, I still can't really tell if they're decals or tape though. Couldn't they just bring the helmets to the same people that paint goalie masks? I noticed there were Bauer Helmets as well as CCM helmets, so if they were decals, they must have different shaped decals for the different shapes of the helmets.

Now that I look at those helmets it cant be tape. Eveything is too exact.

It's decals! They ahve different kits for different shaped helmets. When Josh Balckburn was a goalie at Michigan, he had decals on hif goalie helmet too. Montoya's are painted on.
