Smith Maze Helmet

Smith just took away your best excuse for not wearing a brain bucket by creating the world’s lightest certified snow helmet. The Smith Maze Helmet only weighs 11.5 ounces! On top of being light as hell, the Maze uses AIREVAC 2 Ventilation to keep your head cool and force goggle fogging the way of the dinosaurs. Remove the AIRFLOW vent plugs for some extra breeze on sunny days and rest assured your goggles will stay secured in the removable goggle lock when you cartwheel out of that corked 540 FAIL.

Bottom Line: The lightest certified snow head protection in the world.

this is my favorite smith helmet yet. honestly. INCREDIBLY light-weight-- it's like you're not even wearing a helmet-- however still warm-- and safe. I'd recommend it for anyone-- it's the lightest certified helmet on the market. . . plus-- I honestly can say that I 'tested it's durability' a few times last season-- check check and check. stoked. will def ride this helmet again next season.

It's pretty svelte looking, not bulky at all...probably the least bulk helmet I've tried on.

Rachael,

How's the helmet fit. Is it pretty low-profile? Every helmet I try on makes me feel like Eric Estrada in CHIPS

the size chart only goes to small, but the Maze helmet is available

the size chart only goes to small, but the Maze helmet is available in xs. His head size it 52.5 CM, so is that a Small or XS?

I am pretty sure you could get away with either, since there is some overlapping in sizes. The small Maze goes down to 51cm though, so that will fit him for sure.

New Favorite

As a Smith Athlete, I've tried most of their helmets over the last few years, and this one is definitely my favorite.
Its the lightest helmet I've ever worn - I love being protected but not feeling like I'm inside an armored vehicle.

Also, since I'm weight conscious when choosing what I bring on hikes and ski tours, I am really stoked to have this helmet available. Hardly even notice its attached to my pack.

Does this helmet have built in audio? Because some of the earflaps

Does this helmet have built in audio? Because some of the earflaps have a hole pattern and some are just puffy-padded... what's the deal yo?

The helmet on this page does not have built in audio, BUT, you can upgrade the helmet with this audio kit: http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Smith-Skullcandy-Single-Shot-Snap-Fit-Audio-Kit/SMI0592M.html

unbelievably light

By: Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete
6 days ago

this will be my first year wearing a helmet skiing since I was a youngster. I can't get over how light it is. I don't feel as though i'm wearing a helmet. For those of you who have avoided wearing helmets because of their bulky, heavy, restricting features, this is the one for you. my mom is stoked

Anyone know how this helmet fits, shape/size wise compared to other Smith helmets like Holt or Variant?

In terms of fitting your head the same sizing applies. I just got the Maze for the upcoming season and wear the same size I did for my Variant last season. The helmet itself is way sweeter, though, incredibly light and not bulky at all (and a great price).

Smith MAZE is the ONE!

By: Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete
November 7, 2009

The new Smith Maze is the most badass helmet around. Besides being the lightest in the industry, its super comfortable and of course...great looking!I wear this helmet for skiing and b.a.s.e jumping. It gives me all the protection I could possibly need (and I need alot of protection..:)
I rock it with the Smith I/O and Phenom goggle, but the entire smith goggle lineup fits great.

Low Profile

By:
October 28, 2009

Just purchased the Smith Maze after some difficulty with my K2 Crossfire fitting with my Oakley A Frames. Just taking it out of the box and onto the head is great low profile fit. It really sits nice on my head. I tried it on with my Oakley AFrames...and they fit perfectly. One complaint would be that the goggle strap lock on the back is a bit cheesy and I can see that breaking off sometime this winter.......other than that, this new Smith helmet is worth the purchase....
