Fabulous Helmet!
I looked at a lot of helmets and this one came out on top. The plush interior was super comfortable and warm. I love having the ability to "dial" in the fit. I sometimes wear my hair in a ponytail and sometimes not and I can change the fit of the helmet by adjusting the mechanical fit and comfort system. I looked at a lot of other women's and men's helmets and this one had the most features for the price. Its a well made and comfortable helmet. I highly recommend it.

Great, lightweight helmet
This helmet was very comfortable and kept my head warm even in Vermont. The interior was plush and I liked the ability to dial the fit. The helmet has a nice sleek look to it as well. The only downside to this helmet was that the goggles slide in the holder rather than clip on. The goggles stayed on fine while I was skiing but if I took the helmet off and carried it, sometimes the goggles would slide off. Otherwise I thought it had a lot of nice features for the price point.

Great Helmet; One design flaw
This is a great helmet, except for that the thing in the back for holding in goggles has the opening facing up, so my goggles are always sliding out. Other than that, it is a safe, well made helmet.

A soft measuring tape is an excellent tool to determine the correct circumference of the user's head in centimeters and get a rough idea of what helmet size will fit them best. If you do not have a soft tape, use string. Do not use a metal tape as it will not give an accurate measurement.

1.) Have the user stand facing you while looking straight ahead. (Tip: when fitting small children it is helpful to kneel in front of them so you are at eye level.)

2.) Using both hands, hold the measuring tape at each end with the marks facing away from you.

3.) Place the fit tape behind the user's head just above the ears.

4.) Wrap the side in your right hand around to the front of their forehead so the end of the tape is centered between (and just above) the eyebrows.

5.) Wrap the side in your left hand around (just above the ears and brow) to overlap the end of the tape with a snug fit. Read the measurement at the end of the tape to determine circumference measurement.

6.) Remove measuring tape and record the measurement. This number can be used to narrow the helmet size selection using the helmet-sizing chart above.
