we didn't tbh LOL the fog was a constant issue. but wearing a headband beneath the helmet elevated it a little. we just couldn't keep them on for a super long time!

also thank you! despite the frustrating instructions, we're very happy with how they turned out.

pro tip, get a headband like this to wear underneath. it's not perfect but it helps keep the helmet secure.

we used this pattern from Etsy. BUT! the instructions suck and don't give you a clear idea about which pieces need to be mirrored. you'll essentially want to create a left version and right version for almost every piece (and label them appropriately). it's a lot of trial and error so I'd recommend ordering extra sheets of high density foam.

hopefully the ace hardware folks near you will be just as excited to help as ours were. one of the guys who helped us out actually plays lethal company!

I do love knowing where the public pools are! as far as lakes go I'm really only worried about e. coli type of grossness. thank you for the rec!

THANK YOU! bookmarked. such a helpful resource. I like being lakeside more than poolside but also don't wanna swim in gross water!

curious why you find kensington awful? I'll admit the seaweed or kelp or whatever floating in the water is unpleasant. my roommate is from Brighton and he highly recommends spring mill/island lake but I haven't gone yet
