Giro Omen Helmet

5 Star Rating

One of the best

By Ranked #1011 - Helmets February 4, 2009

This helmet is a little pricey, but it is well made and comfortable. I've used mine over a month now with nothing but smiles. It's not as steezy as some helmets out there, but it makes it up in comfort and class. The venting is convenient and easy to use (though I still occasionally forget which slide position is open vs closed :) and most importantly this does a great job of helping you regulate your temperature while protecting the noggin'. It's a well constructed helmet, I'd know, I've managed to hit it against a tree, the icy wall of a half-pipe, and on a 30 mph tumble learning to snowboard. Basically doesn't have a scratch.
The precise fit system gives me a headache if it's tight, but I just keep it loose and it feels perfect. Pair this with the Motorola Bluetooth headphones and shredding has never been better!
