Giro G10 Helmet - 30654

Great Helmet
February 13, 2012

Bought these helmets for my husband and son. They have been used on several ski trips since and have performed flawlessly! Comfortable, warm, lightweight and easily adjustable, and still look new. I prefer wearing a helmet over a hat and this one fits nicely but does not make them too hot on spring skiing days. My son has grown a lot in 2 years but the helmet still fits him for this years trip. The best part is the goggle clip, which keeps the goggles in place. But the helmet also accomodates sunglasses nicely.

Easy adjustments to achieve a perfect fit. Lower profile and light weight make the G10 a helmet you'll look forward to wearing day after day. No more excuses for skiing unprotected. I ordered this helmet over the phone. The customer service people couldn't have been more helpful! Great helmet, great shopping experience.

Excellent

GREAT HELMET!!

I extensively researched helmets and tried on a good number of them, including the G9, Fuse, Omen, Smith and Protec models. This model had by far the best fit (low profile) and easiest adjustment system. I bought one with the Motorola wireless system and it works AWESOME!! I was simply hoping for respectable music quality, but got much more. No issues with BT connectivity and the ability to switch to phone from music via the earpieces while on the slopes or the chair was fantastic. Microphone worked fine for outgoing calls as well! I would HIGHLY recommend this helmet.

I already had this helmet, but it was a larger size and wearing out. I used your sizing chart and it fits perfectly. Great price.

Gets The Job Done.

I have Scott goggles, and it fits around the helmet perfectly. That was one of my concerns when getting a helmet. Other than that, this helmet is nothing fancy except the vents to keep your dome cool. I'm 5'5 135 lbs. The XS was a good fit.

Great Helmet and great price!

Got this helmet for my wife, and she loves it. We got it when it was the Deal of the day. Got the stereo ear pad's that REI was clearing out for $7, and we're talking a awesome combo for less that $50. Fit and finish are great. It's got the lever on top to adjust the airflow. As others have stated before, it is the 06 model and the only difference is the adjustable headband (not included on this one.) In any case, the helmet fits her fine. It's for the strap in the back to hold her goggles in place... The only problem is there is a small gap in between her helmet and goggles. It's probably more of a result of the goggles she was using. The Oakley Stockholm's have a tiny gap in the center vs the Spy Comet's which had a larger gap.

Great service

Our son has this helmet and raves about how comfortable, warm, light, and easy it is to wear. Seems natural for us to have one with all the tree skiing we do. Thanks for the quick delivery and great price.

Great lightweight helmet
March 10, 2008

This is my first helmet purchase and I have to admit, I was nervous about how it would fit and feel. I looked at the size chart for the G10, measured my noggin and ordered! It is lightweight, comfortable and fits great! It feels no different than wearing a hat. I'd highly recommend it!

After 30+ years of skiing I realized that I have been flirting with disaster not wearing a brain bucket. I looked at and tried out a bunch and found that the G10 was lightweight, comfortable, cool on the warm days and warm on the not so warm days and provided me with the protection needed.

Great helmet - Event better price
February 26, 2008

the G10 helmet is so light, you tend to forget you even have it on. the vent system works very well and prevents your head from overheating ... the removable ear-liners are a nice plus.

Nice
February 20, 2008

I ordered a size small which fits my 54.6cm head perfectly. I can't even tell that I have a helmet on. Very well built helmet. The newer model does have an adjustable headband, which some may like. Great price on an older model though. Just as warm as any hat in my experience.

I just bought this helmet and used it for the first time 2 weeks ago. By far, the most comfortable helmet of all the one's I tried (and I tried on a bunch). Perfect fit, good looks. Haven't tried, or needed to, yet - but the fact that the earpads are removable is a nice extra benefit.

G10 Helmet, great for skiin or snowboarding

The G10 helmet is great. It provides great protection as well as warmth. It is a great fit.

Very comfortable. I love the vents which allow the wearer to open for air or close when cold. I just wish I had splurged for the bluetooth model so I could use my Ipod and cell phone with it!

Great

Perfect size, comfortable and durable. Very happy

Superb helmet, warm but still comfortable, easily adjustable and looks great!

I LOVE this helmet!
February 08, 2008

I ski professionally as a mountain guide, and LOVE this helmet. Giro has made great improvements in fit with the new adjusting system. I love the quick vent openings, so I don't get overheated. Great visibility, and good fit with goggles which stay secure. I like the fact that this helmet fits a bit lower profile than the Fuse, which I had previously. I don't feel like I look so much like a "bobble head." I went with the more feminine look of the women's model, with just a little pink, and a nice pinkish, pearly sheen. I liked the flat white, too, which may be more versatile. But, I have to admit, it's nice to look like a girl when you're skiing with all the guys.

I wasn't too sure about buying a helmet online before I tried it on. This helmet conformed very well and kept me very warm. It was really a great buy.

comfortable but cooler then expected
January 29, 2008

I had been using a solid helmet for 8 years and in the warm weather it was simply too hot. The G10 is comfortable for my bald skull but at 12 degree F or cooler it is too cool even with the vents closed. A balaclava with a thin skull cap on it is my solution.

Lightweight and warm
January 20, 2008

I just used this helmet in below zero temperatures and the helmet performed great. I like the quick ability to open the vents. In buying the helmet I was misled that it was a new model with the adjustable headband, which I would have prefered. Be careful of the sizing as it has changed with the newer models.

Love this helmet!

A friend loaned me this helmet last season, since I'd never worn a helmet and wasn't sure what kind to get. It fit perfectly and I loved how warm I stayed, while having great ventilation at the same time! So this season I ordered one for myself from Altrec and I ride so much better now, with the security of knowing I'm safe from whacking my head, thanks to this helmet! I also love that I can add the earpieces into the helmet, which is great for my mobile phone which also doubles as an mp3 player. So I can listen to music and take important calls, while on the slopes!

GREAT
January 07, 2008

Bought one for myself and one for my wife. We both give them a 10.

Comfortable, warm, excellent fit
January 06, 2008

Up 'till this point, I hadn't bought in to the helmet craze that has been sweeping the slopes. I was too manly for a helmet. However, after seeing a friend take a horific fall in a Breckenridge glade, I decided it was time to get one. I tried on several brands and models and decided on the G10. I found it to be an excellent blend of price, features and comfort. After skiing for 2 days in Beaver Creek, I am a huge fan of the G10. The fit was excellent. So good that I forget I was wearing a helmet. It feels just like a hat and just as warm. We skied in heavy snow and the ability to change venting with the flick of a button was nice. Heavy wind and snow, close the vents. No snow, skiing hard, sweating, open the vents. Bottom line, I am now a fan of skiing helmets and won't hit the slopes again without my G10.

Good design and functionality
January 06, 2008

G10 has a good design and functionality. I think it is also very useful for children / junior because it's weight is very light. Delievering is so fast^^

Perfect Fit

I love the G10 Helmet. It is the perfect, light, comfertable helmet. The venthilation system works super.

AWESOME HELMET
February 17, 2007

I couldn't be more pleased with my G10. Its comfy, light and looks great. It kept my head warm and dry even though it was snowing all day. If you are considering a helmet look no further. Altrec's service is 2nd to none. FAST SHIPPING!

Fits perfectly, comfortable, light weight and looks great. Great service from Altrec as well - delivered in 2 days!

So Comfortable
December 16, 2006

I tried on several helmets and this one was by far the most comfortable. I personally don't care about the extra features but the helmet is feature rich with it's easy switch ventilation and it's audio compatability. I bought the Giro helmet in Matte Pewter color. I think the color is a very neutral color - feminine enough for a girl and masculine enough for a guy. My only complaint is that the strap doesn't tighten quite as much as I would like, but I can tighten it a little further by extending the material that the strap is attached to a little past the clip. Normally, it takes me forever to decide on the perfect product, but this purchase was a no-brainer!

MUST HAVE FOR THIS SEASON
December 05, 2006

I bought this helmet last year. I never thought I would wear a helmet. This helmet is light I didn't even feel I was wearing one. The ventilation system is great as well.

Well made; Great look; and Great Adustable Ventilation System
March 08, 2006

I've tried it on and it fits well. It's well made and looks great! I love the ventilation system. I would have liked the chin strap to adjust a little tighter. My head must be between large and x-large in this particular helmet. With no snow in Dallas and little in Angel Fire, NM right now, I may have to test it next winter.

G10 pretty good deal
March 05, 2006

helmet makes a huge difference in the cold and windy vermont mountains. unfortunately it does not fit me perfectly - not sure if that is a size or style issue. but it worrks. i have not had to open the vents yet - but its nice to have to quick option. i have heard of folks loosing the removable vent coverings and having a hard time replacing them.

Great Helmet
February 21, 2006

I looked into many helmets and after trying them on, and checking reviews, this was by far the best. I've used it twice once in 10 degree weather while dumping snow, and the other in 40 degree warm sunny weather, and the temp was PERFECT in both scenarios. Definitely worth the extra $ from the nine.

Great!
February 11, 2006

Considering I was a first time snowboarder, this helmet came in very handy. My head met with the snow several times and I'm sure that the helmet kept me from the clinic! Would highly recommend.

Constructed very well. Fits my big noggin. Full size. Slightly different fit from Giro Nine.

The camo helmet looks and feels great, and goes with my snowboarding gear. I went with the audio earpad upgrade from REI.

Great Helmet can it be made of Kevlar for urban assault wear? "Matte Black Kevlar" Military helmets are too cumbersome and Police Swat team helmets are too. This helmet can be adapted for many uses in this field .........Thanks
