Giro 2008 Encore 2 Helmet - 2008 BCS

This helmet works well for me on most days. Adequate coverage and you don't feel like a mellon head. Good curves, skate styling looks great on the slopes.

Comes with several size 'liners' that you can change out to perfect the fit, make sure you use them if you need them, and size your head with your ski/snowboard hat on!

My only (minor) complaint is that the chin strap is hard to adjust on-the-fly and the fuzzy thing that keeps it from rubbing your chin tends to slide badly towards the side w/ the buckle. The goggle clip works great, keeps my eyewear right where I need/want it.

Helmet also has lots of flat space for stickers, but vents very well.

I like this helmet because it is pretty warm without getting really hot. It looks good and feels good on my head. Only complaints is that the ear cover start to hurt my ears after a while on the mountain and that with my goggles on the helmet gets pulled upwards a little so that it sits back on my head. other than that its a good helmet.

After 13 years boarding I finally got myself to buy a helmet. I cant afford to crack my head and never work again.

Helmet is simple and safe and doesn't look like a giant melon on your melon. Worth it to save my head.

This is my first helmet and i really like. When i'm skiing i totally forget i'm wearing a helmet it feels just as comfortable as a beanie. It doen't get to hot and the ear pads keep your ears warm and you can still hear. The chin starp can get irritating but its no big deal. Overall its a great helmet and i reconmend it.

I got this helmet last year. And I like to do a lot of park and backcountry. But every time I hit my head whether I hit it Soft or Hard I always get a headache.
