I did And I have to Admit I worked very well , and was not uncomfortable at all got a little sweaty while staging for rider switch but as soon as some airflow got through dried up ,Normally I hack up crap for a few days after a race not this time sometimes I would forget it was on and take off my helmet and it would fall and then the attached lanyard would catch it and seems to be a fair price, the only thing that I could see improvements on is to add a way to install a drinker tube, see Tim@wolfsnout.com

Yeah... I noticed Joe Ramos using one.

I too was wondering how to implement the drinking tube of our Camelbak's...[?]

I've been using a wolfsnout for about 6 months now for all types of riding. Works great in the dust and even better at the dunes, no more sand in my mouth. I'll admit, when I first got mine I didn't like it, but after forcing myself to get used to it, now I won't ride without it.
The snout itself can be hit or miss depending on your helmet. On some helmets that I have, the front mouth portion of the helmet is too large for the snout to fit snuggly inside without falling out. On my Arai, the snout fits like a glove and doesn't move when out riding. The little lanyard that comes with the snout got in my way so I just cut it off. With practice I have learned how to put the camelpack tube into my mouth to get a drink while the snout is still in place.

This product sounds good and I'm going to give it a try at the Cinders race, as that one will be a dust bowl for sure if they don't get any rain. Hoping it fits my Bell.

I forced myself to learn to ride with my camelback hose in my mouth at all times, that way I don't have to fumble around for it. I'm hoping I can still do that while using the Snout, but if not then I may try cutting a hole in it, or see if not eating all that dust really helps to reduce the amount of water you want to chug.
