Does the foam/cushion in the helmet soften up any after use? Right now it's as hard as dense styrofoam.

DD had 1 and they did soften up a little bit but not enough. That's why she's in a Schutt Air Maxx Elite now. It just wasn't comfortable for her.

Thanks for the feedback. My DD ended up using it and she figures she'll get used to it or the cushion will soften over time.

If the foam softens up too much the helmet will become loose and will rattle around on your DD's head while she is trying to use it. You may be better off getting a larger helmet and using a "fit kit" to make it fit the way she wants it. You can also replace the "fit kit" when it wears out without having the replace the helmet.
