smith maze-11.5 ounces lightest helmet on the market, pretty comfy

smith holt- medium weight, pretty comfortable, fits a little bigger than measures id say

poc receptor bug-super comfortable, heavier than both smiths mentioned above, but its also super durable, and pricer than the two smiths.

Don't get the k2 rant, it sits high and when you go fast enough or jump/land hard enough it will slide to the back of your head or it will slide completely off and choke you by it's strap.

If you're buying at a shop, take your googles with you and try them on with the new helmet. No one wants a huge gaper gap.

im pretty sure goggles are supposed to block the sun from your eyes and face and to prevent mad wind burns but nevertheless i disagree on your thought for goggles on the outside of helmets because in the long run i dont think it matters

but what do i know?
