Hey guys, sorry about this being on this thread but i need my question answered fast. Today i got a Giro Flint SC in XXL, took me forever to find it but the trouble is it fits really small. Its ok when im wearing it, just really snug, is it sappose to be that way? Did anyone else have problems like this? help me out please?

take off the chin protector so you dont look like a fool - and it seems to be a smaller fitting helmet. im size medium, but on a flint im size large.

Should be pretty snug, but if it hurts or is really tight then it is too small.

i have a giro helmet and i just took all the straps out and i wear hat underneath because hats are more comortable and take up less space than the pads do

Where did you find it ? I've been looking all over for one and can't find it.

Yeah, the flint SC is snug getting on if you have the chin guard on it. With the chin guard off, it's just as easy as any other helmet.

Once it's on, it should fit snugly but not give you a headache.

I ski Alta with the chin guard on, Park City terrain park with the chin guard off.

Also, SportsDen.com has a ton of em in stock. Bad Lt's too.
