Why We Like The Vision Helmet

The Vision Helmet is Black Diamond's most durable foam helmet for climbing. It has an updated design to the innovative hybrid construction that climbers have been enjoying for seasons. The polycarbonate shell covers a larger portion of the crown, and there's a layer of EPS foam underneath for added crown protection. EPP foam covers the rest of the helmet for multi-impact protection. The suspension system adjusts for a secure fit, and removable padding customizes the helmet's fit for even greater comfort.

Its a Helmet

IN all I like the helmet. I Bought it for multi-pitch climbing, so far it has sat on my head just fine. its light weight and quite comfortable. its mostly foam with very little plastic covering. so one rock hit and its done. so durability maybe an issue, compared to something like a half dome helmet with a more substantial plastic shell, but that is to be seen when/if I get hit with a rock...

Lightweight and comfortable

Super happy with this climbing helmet. It's lightweight, comfortable, and secure. I hardly even notice it's on when climbing!

Most comfortable helmet ever

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

I have a pretty small head and no helmet I've tried before fit well. Maybe my head shape is weird, but no matter how much I tightened or adjusted other helmets, they always slipped down my forehead and the webbing around the ears wouldn't be low enough and therefore constantly rubbed and irritated my ears — I've lost earrings from this. This is the only helmet I've tried that actually fits around my ears without rubbing and doesn't wobble on my head. BD, please don't change the design!

Good Helmet

After a couple of days in the vision helmet, I give it the thumbs up. Fit might be a little on the small side, but it works.

Solid Dome

Holds up well for foam and it is incredibly light. A large stalactite fell onto my head and it took that ding like a kevlar helmet. Just dinked off of it. Solidified my support for Black Diamond gear.

Helmet with a vision for getting wild and staying safe

My BD vision helmet has proved to be versatile, comfortable and protective. I have used my Vision Helmet on professional trips I lead as well as for my personal use. Climbing of all types the helmet is so comfortable I forget I am wearing it. The fit adjustment system is simple ad stays in place for as long as you are out. I recently used the helmet on a backcountry snowboard trip. The helmet is super light weight and did not compromise my riding or climbing. This is one of the best helmets I have owned (30 years of helmet purchases).

Best Helmet Ever

Lightweight, durable, and easy to adjust. Headlamp clips work great, excellent ventilation. Used primarily for alpine climbing and rescue in the PNW.

Top Notch Helmet

This helmet is equally as outstanding as it is affordable. If you're looking to spend time in a mountain environment then this is a must invest.

Awesome helmet!

Great balance of light weight but durable. As a mountain guide my helmets are always getting bashed around. The solid plastic up top makes this last much longer than the full Styrofoam type helmets

Light and comfortable

I use it for ice climbing and ski mountaineering. Seems pretty solid.
