i got two of these bad boys. they're virtually indestructible. i also have two of the black diamond half domes...and the difference is there is a lot more flex to the bd's and the petzl feels a lot firmer. and the ecrin roc fits a lot more comfortable on the noggin' and the chin strap clip is closer on one side vs. the in the middle under your chin like the bd half dome. only beef with the ecrin roc is that it sits fairly high on the forehead and you can't adjust how deep you can set it. it can double as a seat on the rocks. had a much much older ecrin roc and loved it so much i picked up a second. i got the white and the red. love em. this helmet will last you all your climbing years.

also, the white helmet can get lost a lot easier in the snow if you set it down to rest...just a heads up..
