yo so im thinking bout getting a baker but im just wondering about the fit.
does it sit like high on anybodys head or anything?
i tried on one bern helmet i think it was the macon and it didnt fit right at all like if i turned my head upside down it would fall off so i just dont want it to be like that.
my choice is either between this and a hifi so if anyone has any input on anything itd be appreciated
thanks yo

I would go for a HIFI. Most brands tend to make all their helmets fit the same and since the other Bern didn't fit you... Also, you can probably try on the HIFI and test the fit/comfort.

I have a Hifi and its great. Lightest helmet I've ever used. Super durable(lasted me 2 seasons)

Get the Hifi

if your looking at a bern you may as well get this, it looks just as cool if not cooler and its way more comfortable. Headphone compatable too

Get the RED HiFi...I considered the Baker cause it looks sweet, but when you get down to it, the reason for getting a helmet is for protechtion in crashes...and the Baked won't to nearly as good as the HiFi.

That is not true at all. The baker is designed to protect from the most common head injury in skiing by far, cuncussions. It is designed to help with that, and is 100x better at it then any other helmet on the market, including the hifi.

Not convinced...the Baker fits like a crappy bike helmet, and by that I mean more on top of your head, instead of around it. The HiFi actually feels like it wraps your head completely, and it was actually designed for snowsports, the Baker was a skateboard/bike helmet and they made a beanie to fit into it. But it could just be that way for me, I dunno how the fit is on everyone else.

Where does every one get this rating idea that Bern helments suck for protections, or is everyone just saying because someone else said it.
