Understanding the Helmet System in Ride Storm
In Ride Storm, helmets are more than just cosmetic accessories; they are essential tools for progression. Unlike many other Roblox games where you can browse a catalog and purchase specific gear, Ride Storm utilizes a "crate-and-roll" system. This means you cannot simply walk up to a shopkeeper and buy the "best" helmet. Instead, you must rely on luck to pull high-tier items from supply crates.
Because the system is based on random rolls, the "best" helmet is defined by its specific bonus—specifically, the cash multiplier. The more effective your helmet’s multiplier, the faster you will earn the cash required to open even more crates. This creates a loop: you earn cash, open a crate, hope for a high-multiplier helmet, and either equip it to increase your earnings or sell it to recoup funds for your next attempt.
How to Get Helmets: Step-by-Step
If you are looking to start your collection, you need to head to the Crate Shop. The process is straightforward, but it requires careful management of your cash reserves.
Access the Menu: Once you are in the game, look at the UI icons on the left side of your screen.
Open the Crate Shop: Click on the crate icon to open the shop interface.
Perform Your Roll: Click the button to open a supply crate. If it is your first time, this opening will be free.
Check Your Result: After the animation, you will receive a random helmet. Check its stats immediately to see if it is an upgrade over your current gear.
Optimizing Your Helmet Strategy
Since you cannot target a specific helmet, your strategy should focus on efficiency. You are essentially gambling with your in-game currency, so you need to make sure every roll counts. The key to success is prioritizing the cash multiplier.
When you open a crate, you will either receive a common item or a rare one. Rare helmets generally offer higher multipliers, which significantly boost your farming speed.
Cartoon Helmet
This is a common tier helmet. It provides an x1.15 cash multiplier. While useful for beginners, it should be replaced as soon as you roll something with a higher bonus.
Burst Helmet
This is a rarer find. It provides an x1.25 cash multiplier. If you pull this, equip it immediately to maximize your income per minute.
The "Sell vs. Equip" Dilemma
One of the most common mistakes new players make is hoarding every helmet they pull. If you have a helmet with a lower multiplier than your current gear, it is usually better to sell it.
Tip
Sell for Sustainability: If you are running low on cash, do not hesitate to sell your lower-tier helmets. The cash you gain from selling can often be reinvested into another crate opening, giving you another shot at a high-tier multiplier. Always keep your best multiplier equipped, and sell the rest.
Boosting Your Cash for More Crates
Since each crate opening after the first one costs 25,000 cash, you will quickly find yourself needing more funds. While grinding is the primary way to earn money, using redeemable codes is an excellent way to speed up the process.
Based on community reports and recent updates, here are some codes you can redeem to help fund your crate openings:
PATCH: 1.5k cash
30MVISITS: 5k cash

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I buy specific helmets directly in the shop?
No. Ride Storm does not have a traditional shop where you can select a specific helmet to buy. All helmets must be obtained through the random supply crate system.
Is the first crate opening really free?
Yes. When you first unlock the crate feature, the game grants you one free crate opening. After that, every subsequent attempt costs 25,000 cash.
Should I keep every helmet I get?
You should generally only keep the helmet with the highest cash multiplier. If you have multiple helmets, selling the ones with lower multipliers is a great way to generate extra cash to fund more crate openings.
Are the crate drops guaranteed to be good?
No, crate drops are entirely random. There is no guarantee you will get a rare helmet on any given roll, so manage your cash carefully and avoid spending all your savings at once if you are on a losing streak.
