A few things I've found with the Wickflows. First, DO NOT WASH/DRY them. This instantly ruins the silicone channel. I simply wring them out at the end of a ride and then spray them with a combo of water/essential oil to let them air dry. No funk, no problems. Second, wear them low on your forehead so they literally are no more than a few mm or less from your eyebrows. Third, your helmet needs to fit snug up against it as it does not work as well if your lid is loose. The less internal padding the better. My Oakley DRT5 is especially good for this as it has hardly any pads. Fourth, you'll still need to lean your head back, push on the front of your helmet to allow larger amounts of sweat to drain. Lastly, no I do not work for nor am I sponsored by Wickflow. However, when I come across something exceptional I share. I bought a friend one and he was blown away with it. I am all in on being a sweat hog headband tester. The saying "Hotter than Georgia asphalt" has been around for a long time for a reason.
