Always trying to tease as much information that I can out of the helmets I own. So I set out to decipher the name written on the shell by manipulating the saturation and contrast of the photo.
I've never been good with Wheel of Fortune type word games however....

Would love every ones thoughts! Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!
