Petzl Elios Climbing Helmet

Item #PTZ0203 | 130 in Stock
5 Star Rating

don't even know it's there

By Ranked #38 - Harnesses and Climbing Helmets September 3, 2009

i've had my Elios for about a year, and i find it extremely comfortable and lightweight. the highest compliment I can pay to this helmet, is that the moment I put it on, i forget it's on my head. i've worn it for over 10 hours at a time, with no comfort issues at all. the ratchet adjustment makes for quick and easy fine tuning to your head, or head plus hat.
the tabs are easy to use when mounting a headlamp -you don't even need to take the helmet off your head. i bought the blue color so it wouldn't get too hot in the summer. so far, venting has been sufficient.
