You're not going to get the wind over your head with these fork mounted sports sheilds unless you are really short. The best that can be hoped for is no buffeting and relief from all the wind on your chest.

Angleing the sheild back will cut the turbulance but shoot the wind right in your face. I had a big shot and this alley cat I have now. I am 5'11" and could find no way to get the wind over my head with either shield that didn't give me the sensation of white water rafting on my head. And lowers have no effect (I tried this).

Maybe one of the bar mounted sheilds could be made to work.
