The original helmet idea come out 2017 at the Gym Sportello in Oulu Finland, when former Finnish Red Beret Markku Tauriainen started to talk to workout friend Pertti Kettunen about the new rolling helmet idea. It was so grazy – out of the box idea – that we decided to have a test it on the shooting rod at Hiukkavaara, Oulu, Finland. Heureka Pertti´s first prototype – “the bearing boiler” started to roll after the bullet hit. The test shooting was organized by gunsmith Joel Aholainen, who is also a member of the Invetor Club A.Vipunen. After success on the shooting rod the idea started to take steps for a patent.
