Team Wendy Releases Two New Products

Wednesday, June 26th, 2013

Team Wendy has released the new REVOLVE™ liner and H-Style retention system. While the Exfil TLP was the big news during our SOFIC coverage of Team Wendy, they did initially display both of these new products there.

REVOLVE™ Liner

TW Revolve

The REVOLVE™ Helmet Liner is a 3-piece impact mitigating system designed to be a replacement liner for most ballistic shells. It utilizes an array of engineered polymer structures developed during the HEaDS UP program for Natick, along with a set of moisture wicking comfort pads to provide maximum protection, comfort, and stability. The small thermoplastic urethane (TPU) discs you see work like the crumple zones in your car’s bumper to help mitigate the energy of impact.

H-Style Retention System

TW H_Back

The newly redesigned H-back chinstrap weighs below 100g (3.5oz) including ballistic mounting hardware utilizing Team Wendy’s cam-lock sliders which allow for one handed adjustment and no-slip, positive-locking engagement. The asymmetric design keeps the buckle tucked smoothly along the jaw line while maintaining a snug, even feel around the chin-cup thanks to an Ultrasuede chin-cup and nape pad lining. Offered in Sizes Medium/Large and Extra Large in Black, Foliage Green and Coyote Brown.

Agilite Mohawk Helmet Cover Pics from High Risk Training

Tuesday, June 18th, 2013

The recently released Agilite Mohawk Ops-Core FAST helmet cover is gaining in popularity. In fact, Agilite just gave us an exclusive that they have already teamed up with US Military helmet giant Armorsource LLC to design the MICH version of the Mohawk which will be available soon from Armorsource. We are big fans of what we are seeing with Armorsource.

These new pictures from High Risk Training in Ohio provide the first good look at the Ops-Core version of the Mohawk.

Despite only having been launched a month or so ago, the reaction to the Mohawk has been outstanding and according to Agilite orders are flooding in for them. Users really like the functionality and design of the Mohawk, particularly when paired with bump helmets where its strategically-placed mesh sections allow for the free flow of air as well as its built in accessory retention system.

“We like the Mohawk Helmet Cover because of its versatility and ease of conversion,” said HRT President Jeem Newland. “We operate in different environments so being able to adapt to that is key. We are able to go from a black helmet to a Multicam cover in less than a minute allowing us to use 1 standard helmet and accessories”

In fact, Agilite Mohawks are now SOE for all instructors and staff at HRT, all of whom have been handpicked for their background and experience in military, law enforcement, and technology fields to provide our students with the best possible learning environment.

These aren’t the new EXFIL LTP for Lightweight Tactical Polymer. Notice they don’t have the stylized VAS Shroud found on the EXFIL LTP. Exfil LTP you ask?
