uh... if you want a helmet for skating, get the skate cap
if you want one for skiing, wait until next season and get a snow cap
if you want a crossover helmet, then buy a crossover.

haha Judging by the capix helmets I have seen they provide hardly more protection that an egg carton on your head. Maybe good for water but not snow. If you want a good crossover just grab a Bern helmet.

just buy a skate helmet, when you want to ski.. throw a hat under the helmet and rock that to the hill.
