I am going to buy a new helmet and i have never really worn a beanie or my goggles underneath my helmet. Should i get a size up or stay the same size..... Help is appreciated!!!

Just bring a hat and gogs to your local shop and try some different ones on. Every helmet in every different size fits differently, so it's good to try before you buy.

I'd Reccomend a hat tht fits your head properly. Slouchy beanies are a bitch and can be very uncomfortable underneath a helmet.

if you were to get a receptor bug i would get the adjustable version 10x better and you can wear it with or without a beanie and it fits like a charm

This. I'd get a beanie that fits really tight to your head but still keeps you warm
