Giro Flint SC Helmet

By Dave Lucas Ranked #198 - Helmets April 7, 2004

This is a sweet helmet. I got the white with gray stripes, it looks awesome! I got the size large and it fits my head like a glove.(21 1/2") so anyone with a bigger head than mine will need to get XL size. The sliding vent on top works without difficulty. The face guard can make it difficult if your trying to put on chapstick or need to wipe your nose. The chin strap receiving end could of been alittle longer but with practice you can fasten it. If you plan on listening to music like I do then you need to get earbuds or something that wraps around the ear and rests inside the ear. I have used both and putting and taking off the helmet will dislodge both styles. I have found the wrap around kind to be better. One more thing, wearing something under the helmet ie; balaclava, etc will make it easier to keep your earbuds in place when putting on the helmet. The visor will tilt upward allowing you to pull off your goggles and rest them on the helmet right under the visor, nice touch. Overall I'm very happy with the helmet and would recommend it to anyone that skis or boards out-of-bounds, big mountain or likes to push the limits at the park or slopes. Hope this helps.
