Men dont do colors well. NRS also sells the helmet you like. I like the above water function of a billed ww helmet but I was always concerned that below water the current would rotate the helmet away from your forehead and expose your skull to rocks. Color me a worrier I guess. Most of my class V buddies wear billed helmets and they arent dead. At least not socially.
