REVIEW: War Sport Industries - War Bungee

If you have holes in your head, you should somehow use them. War Sport Industries surprised us with a small upgrade kit for the two Ops-Core helmets that have holes on top, the Base Jump and the Carbon. We took a look at the War Bungee from War Sport Industries for you - on the left side of the image you can see it on a Carbon-Clon in action. The cord is looped through the holes, forming a net structure on the top of the helmet.

This not only looks cool, but can also be useful for attaching things to the helmet (in addition to the Velcro): on the left we have a Manta Strobe fixed and on the right an MS2000. Both are things you don't want to lose. Velcro is good, the War Bungee adds an extra level of security.

No, nothing presses on the head inside the helmet. You can see the cord looped through. Most of the structure is on the outside and there are no issues on the inside, the pads of the Ops-Core also create distance from the helmet roof. If you want to know how the thing is put on: here is the installation instructions.

The complete kit you get from War Sport Industries consists of approximately 1.80 meters of Shock Cord, four sewn MOLLE loops, an ITW Web Dominator, and a buckle.

CONCLUSION: The War Bungee is a great gimmick that makes the FAST look better and also provides additional security to the helmet, ensuring things stay where they should.

You can get the War Bungee from War Sport Industries directly from the manufacturer for $18.5 (colors OD, Coyote, Multicam). If you want more than just the bungee, go for the War Bungee PRO Bundle Solution, which includes the actual Ops-Core helmet and a lot of accessories, all for $395.
