Petzl Elios Climbing Helmet

Item #PTZ0331 | 104 in Stock
3 Star Rating

Poor fit, uncomfortable

By Ranked #164 - Climbing Helmets December 2, 2009

I really don't like the feel of this helmet. It feels obtrusive rather than natural - the head cradle parts occasionally dig into my scalp, and it feels like it is sitting way too far back on my head. I went back to my BD Half Dome almost immediately.
