Whats up NS

Need some advice on a brain bucket for my head to keep it safe this winter.. AUDIO is a necessity, I'm tired of dealing with earbuds.

I just bought these SMX Stitch goggles, and want something that would look good with them.

I've been thinking about the K2 Rant Pro, in Grey.

word that helmet looks nice.. thanks for the tip. Anybody know anything about Bern helmets? they say that the hard hat does not meet the safety standards for action sports? Does this mean I'll split my head open if I take a hard digger on the ice?

I recommend going into your local shop and trying some helmets out before buying it online. You wont regret getting that helmet that fits perfect.

Also,

should i go with the Hard Hat or the EPS version of this helmet? I'm sorta confused what the difference is. They say that the Hard Hat is not good for hard impacts but will last longer through multiple hits, while the EPS can sustain higher impacts but doesn't have the durability that the Hard Hat has.


Thoughts?

I have the baker hard hat. Its pretty solid. I'd say go for the hard hat unless you plan on hucking cliffs or very fast tree runs and can afford a new helmet everytime you have a solid crash. It's still a helmet and doesn't have anything less than others I've seen.
