Macon Hard Hat Helmet

First things first: The Macon Hard Hat isn't a fully certified snow or skate helmet. Its AVS shell and moisture-wicking Brock foam are designed to absorb multiple lower-intensity impacts, not full-out ski crashes or skate wipeouts, so if you're pushing the limits, it's probably not the brain bucket for you. If, however, you're clicking into skis or strapping into your board for the first time, the Macon's a great option. It'll cushion your dome over and over during low-speed, low-intensity falls, and the passive ventilation will keep your egg from scrambling and the removable liner lets you switch to summer activities in a hot second.
