Black Diamond Tracer Helmet

Item #BLD0792 | 134 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Light is Right

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #242 - Harnesses and Climbing Helmets March 18, 2009

I don't need any other helmet- this is light and fits my head. The hole at the back fits a pony tail great so I don't have to deal with my hair flying in my face when I climb. I don't think this is intentional, but it is a nice feature. The straps take a bit of working to get this helmet to fit your head perfectly, but so far, it is the only helmet that does not immediately go cock-eyed on me.
It make me bring a helmet when I normally would not.

Write your comment here... Couldn't agree more! I switched to the Tracer and found that it works well for both fit and function. So far, its gone to the top of Rainier with me and down a couple rivers when I couldn't find my kayak helmet. Love it.
