Control the amount of air travelling through your ultra-venting Giro Ember Helmet by using the included Weatherstrip vent plugs. The In Form fit system uses outrigger arms and an easy-adjust dial to fine tune the fit on a wide range of head shapes and goggle sizes. Giro made the Ember compatible with all TuneUps systems (not included) so you can jam to your favorite tunes as you tear up the mountain.

Bottom Line: Nothing’s worse than a sweaty coconut.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

Shes SOOOO Happy

OK, I know I wrote a while ago about the Reya helmet and how great it was and how much my wife liked it. However, no matter how good you might think you look, the truth was the helmet never fit right. Along comes the beautiful Giro Ember... with the plushest liner, the most adjustable fit, the right color of Titanium with special graphics. My wife is sooo happy with her new helmet. Comfy and warm plus designer looks, what more could you ask for? Cheers.

Can somebody explain to me how to get headphones into the ear

Can somebody explain to me how to get headphones into the ear flaps of this helmet? It says compatible with Tune ups, but it doesn't appear that the ear flaps open up. I don't want to rip it. I already accidentally ripped the black mesh thingy where it looks like the headphone goes behind.

Hey Julie, you actually replace the ear flaps with new ones that have speakers in them; when it says "compatible with tune-ups" that means the helmet will accept the "tune-ups" ear flaps with speakers... search for "tune-ups" in the google machine...

fits great. very warm with a beanie, could wear in any weather. on warm days, just pull out the vents and no liner head stays cool. can't find a better helmet for the money. highly recommend.

Does this helmet come with the "ponytail holder" like many of the Boer brand helmets?

Though you can wear a low ponytail comfortably, these do not have a "ponytail holder".

Great fit, also soft and feminine!

Great helmet with not only the feminine designs, but also the earpads and chin strap are soft and fuzzy! 'In Form' fit system easier to use than Smith brand (Smith Intrigue- Women's is probably a comparable helmet otherwise...) Can't wait to use it on the slopes!

Haven't used my new helmet yet...still waiting for the snow but the fit is superior. The adjustment wheel at the back neck area allows for a comfortable but snug fit and it feels extremely warm.
