I can understand why hurling helmets have become so popular, the cage is easier to see through and they're dead light but for me the helmet itself seems a bit flimsy. If in a crash i went headfirst into a frame or cage/wall then I think the hockey helmets offer much better protection.
ideally for me would be a hurling grill on a hockey helmet, but I have never seen the grills for sale on there own.
