If it fits properly it won't pull up. With the first one I bought I thought it was going to pull my head off but turns out I got a helmet that was too large, once I got a smaller one problem was gone.

Hey Womper,
What's with your constantly changing avatar?
Do you have a script that cycles the photos or you're doing it manually?

Oh you rebel you. I bet you've torn your mattress tags off too. lol.
I have a flat black skid lid that I've added a few more stickers to. I wanted the Fulmer with American flag on the side, but I didn't like the price, so I bought the Skid Lid and made it to fit my desires.

A buddy of mine has a skid lid. His 8 year old daughter decided it was not pretty enough. She added some stickers to it while he was at work and his wife was not watching closely enough. They were butterflies, pink bunnies, Cinderellas, and the such. It was pretty funny.
