"Nice" - Review of Smith Holt Helmet

Nice helmet all around. I was a bit skeptical buying this helmet. Skied with a Giro 9 for years. Always happy with Giro but after recently purchasing the new Smith Prodigy goggle and doing a little research on my own it seemed that this helmet would fit better with my goggles. The helmet is not bulky, its comfortable, in many respects very similar to the Giro but fits better with my goggles and the look is pretty cool. My only concern and I'd be curious to see if anyone else has a problem with it is the goggle latch in the back. It doesn't snap shut around the Prodigy's strap like the Giro 9 did. The goggle doesn't appear to slide off from behind easily (like the Giro Omen-nightmare) but if I encounter this problem while making turns I will send it back. Not going to risk losing money on pair of goggles because of poor design by the helmet manufacturer. I don't understand why Smith or any helmet manufacturer would make a helmet that doesn't offer a secure goggle latch. Other than that it's a good helmet.
