I've worn both the nine.9 and the fuse, both comfy and light, I would recommend either.

Giro. You really can't go wrong with any of them. Personal favourite, and my next helmet, is the Nine.mx or whatever it's called, but the bad lt. is pretty rad. It's all about fit really. Just find a Giro helmet that fits you properly, then buy it. Simple.

I like my nine.9. the vent plugs and removable earflaps make it good for any weather. I like how the protecs look though

Yeah the bad leuitinant is cool, and a good price, but it doesn't look like yo could wear goggles with it, and I'd say the 9 mx.

I use a K2 Ultramatic, and like it, fits pretty good, pretty warm, but a ton of vents to keep from over heating.

I also want to get another helmet that I can attach a face guard, but I'm not sure which one have removable/replacable face guards.

Giro Flint SC is what I wear. I got it on ebay for $110. Nice and light and warm. The chinguard is especially good for tight trees.

i wear the giro 9 and it's sick. There are ventd you can take out and put back in and you can take the ear things off. You can find it at REI for not that much and it's reall light.

The giro nine.9 mx is so sweet. I have one and I have absolutly no coplaints. Th only thing is if you like to go really fast, you have to make sure the visor doesn't catch the wind and rip your head back. It almost happened once but I adjusted the visor so it points down more and it's all good now.

My 9 just got stolen. I'm trying to decide between a Giro 9.mx and Red Synth, any help guys? Any specific info on Red Synth or Red helmets in general would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Yeah, I got a sheap giro too...
No, actually, my dad wont spend shit on ski stuff so I bought a giro S4 ('for those who crave action over status') but its still pretty cool and looks good with goggles. I fell of a 15 footer and landed on my head and the only thing that hurt was my back because it got all bent up

Im thinking about getting a red protection helmet, specifically the Hifi helmet. Does anyone have any experience with this helmet. I want it cause its cheaper than a giro 9 and it still looks good.
