Cookie G35 Skydiving Helmet Review | Features, Fit & Camera Setup Guide

The Cookie G35 skydiving helmet is one of the most popular full-face helmets for modern skydiving, trusted by tunnel flyers, tandem instructors and sports jumpers worldwide. At Skydive Supply Co, an online UK skydiving gear store with displays located near Manchester at Black Knights Parachute Centre, we supply a range of full face helmets and open face helmets such as the Cookie G35 Skydiving Helmet, the Cookie G4 Helmet and the Open Face Cookie Fuel Helmet. 

Designed by Cookie Composites, the Cookie G35 combines comfort, visibility, aerodynamic performance and a versatile interchangeable utility plate system, allowing skydivers to easily adapt their helmet setup for different disciplines. Whether you are upgrading from an open-face helmet or choosing your first full-face skydiving helmet, this guide covers everything you need to know about the Cookie G35, including features, fit, camera compatibility and why it has become a favourite choice among skydivers.

Customisation

The Cookie G35 Skydiving Helmet, has been designed with versatility in mind, giving skydivers more options when it comes to customising their setup.

Side Plates 

The G35 Side Plates come in a range of stunning colours, our personal favourite being the green and blue! People often get side plates to match their suit or rig colours. 

Visors

Arguably the coolest G35 add on, the G35 Visors come in a selection of colours Orange, Blue and tinted. Feeling extra, opt for the Photochromatic visor which alters its tint based on the light conditions of the day! 

 

Top Plates

The G35 Top Plate is available in different colour options, allowing skydivers to personalise the appearance of their helmet while keeping a clean, professional look.

 

Is the G35 good for Camera Flying?

With Cookie’s G35 Utility Plate System, camera flyers can quickly change their camera setup between jumps, making it a practical option for recreational camera work, coaching and general sports skydiving. For multi-rated instructors, the Cookie G35 offers a practical advantage when switching between different types of jumps. Being able to quickly remove a camera setup for tandem jumps and then add it back on for coaching or other camera work can help streamline a busy day of jumping, reducing setup time and keeping equipment changes simple between loads.

For professional camera flyers who require maximum stability for regular filming, tandem camera work or advanced camera setups, we recommend considering a more dedicated camera helmet configuration such as the Cookie Fuel.  The Cookie fuel has adds ons that are dedicated to professional camera flying such as their Chin Cup for maximum stability and cutaway options, their Dual Top Plates and Flat Locks for Stills Camera Mounting. The stability and the camera mounting options required for professional camera flying, make the Cookie Fuel the best option.
