I just got a Bern Watts Eps. It's comfy, low profile and light. I'd definitely recommend it, but make sure you check the size chart before ordering, they run a bit small compared to other helmets but spot on with the size chart. Here's a super cheap price for one if you thing it's right for you: http://www.backcountry.com/bern-watts-eps-visor-helmet-w-knit-liner-discontinued-brn0112



I've heard great things about POCs too if you're not on much of a budget.

My friend had a poc receptor bug and fell directly on his forehead off of a sketchy wooden rail onto ice from a few feet in the air. he got up and we all kept skiing. cant really speak for most other helmets, but the poc definitely has great protection. and looks pretty sick imo.
