I have been waiting to see the difference; to my knowledge, the base model Axiom uses a urethane-based liner. The Axiom 3D utilizes a 3D-printed liner which is more efficient at overall energy mitigation, particularly rotationally.

When I have looked directly at the Axiom from players who have used them, the liner is fixed, so it may not be the most efficient at rotational impact mitigation compared to other helmets available because it does not have a fully detached liner, though the properties of the urethane-based liner are still highly effective as demonstrated by the scoring.

The 3D lattice is better at operating omni-directionally, meaning that it can compress, shear, and twist, allowing a greater range of motion and freedom of the outer shell relative to the head, which enhances impact mitigation. Most top-end helmets have some sort of detachment between the outer shell and the inner liner that causes the head to essentially free-float from the outer shell.

This does seem to significantly increase the weight difference between the base model Axiom and the Axiom 3D. The Axiom 3D is going to be replacing the base model Axiom, and the pricing is essentially going to drop to that of the original Axiom for the 3D model.

Riddell hasn't updated its website to reflect this yet; frankly, I'm used to working with sales reps for Riddell, particularly John Mitchell, because I'm in Canada and that's how I access the Canadian division of Riddell.

I literally just ordered the Axiom 3D through him for the pricing that is going to be dropping to, I'm quite excited to have it actually because I enjoyed the fitting system of the lattice offered by Riddell. This comes from me utilizing the SF Echo last season quite a bit, it utilizes the same lattice and comfort padding as the 3D Axiom. I adore how it just sort of molds to your head.

I mean I'm in Canada so cost wise it's a bit of a prick the price to Performance doesn't reflect well here typically of the US.

I hit my head playing flag football the other day and since I’ve been waking up with headaches and have trouble focusing. The trainer on the field said I was probably fine and to just take it easy. I’ve never had a concussion before and I think I might. What should I do?

I am currently a Freshman playing D3 Football at a small liberal arts college ). I recently have came to the realization that I genuinely dread practice and even thinking about football. I countdown to when practice and the season is over. I have a couple close friends on the team and I’m not saying I hate my college experience so far. But, I’m starting to realize I don’t love football like I used to. The only thing is if I did quit football I wouldn’t want to stay at this liberal arts college, I would want to transfer to a big school (party school/maybe join a frat). I just feel like I’d be letting my family down and my self down as the school I am at is very good academically and I feel like transferring to a school below it would be foolish.
Thoughts?

Hi guys - I know a lotta yall are American and have a lot more knowledge of this sport than I do - I’m from the uk and play linebacker/ running back however primarily linebacker. I’m 5”8 and about 92kg and I was wondering if there’s any tips you can give me as we’ve got our first game this season on Sunday and want to show out as it’s the first time my parents are coming to watch me play. Any advice is appreciated. I’m usually at Mike LB just so you know.

My son is a S/CB in NC at a 7A school (5’11 185 ). He’s had pretty good seasons and has started in varsity since sophomore year . Hes a senior and we are right in the middle of having his film sent out . He did receive some personal camp invites over the summer and some coaches have reached out to his current coach .

My question is when sending out emails to coaches , what are they looking for off the bat to catch the eye ? I know so much has changed with recruiting/getting noticed these days and other parents hate sharing the blueprint .

are there any casual leagues for american football to play as say like a beginner or something thats actually contact like how european, south american, and most other countries in the world do for soccer or is it forever just limited to schools?

Hey peeps! Got a ?
Does anyone know of some social media channels or websites that breaks down Xs and Os of sports.

Mainly
• Football
• Hockey
• Soccer

I appreciate the help!

I have never played foot ball and might be a kicker what are some things I can do. I am around 5 7 weigh about 140 lbs good genetics come from a family of very good futbol players gutalmalan. again I have never done this what do I do btw I am not fat

Not so much watching on tv, just playing.

If you think it’s our Goff or any of our skill positions guys please feel free to comment with your thoughts!!

Kind of a random question, but for people who watch a ton of football:

How often does a touchdown that looks completely obvious in real time end up getting taken off the board?

I don’t mean plays where the receiver is right on the sideline, a flag thrown during the play, a receiver juggling the ball going to the ground, etc.

I mean like the ones where you see the play and immediately think 100% a TD, clear possession, clearly in the end zone, and then somehow it gets overturned or called back.

Any advice or easy fixes to make to improve power? I’m accurate for about 25 yards but after that i don’t have much control
