most of the time you will not need one. what i have is a turtle fur thing, with the little baldcalva thing that goes over the top of your head. it keeps your face warm. if you buy a big helmet, you can wear hats under it, but it wont fit without one.
opps, that was free advertising.

Something THIN!

You don't want a helmet that is loose at all. It will allowthe helmet to slip out of position and also allow space for the helmet to accelerate in an impact. The helmet should be comfortably snug.

what kind of lid do you have? I have never gotten cold in my Giro 9. I get too warm and have to open the vents

burton makes a neckwarmer/headwarmer under the RED name called the 'ninjaclava' and a headwarmer called the 'skullcap'...they fit really well and feel comfy and warm.

I have both...liek them both...dont need the skullcap very often...but wear the ninjaclava every day its snowing...at wolf creek last year 3 degrees and 45mph winds I was warm.

i wear the giro 9. usually i just wear nothing under it, but if it's really cold i'll pull out all the pads on the inside and wear my handmade crocheted beanie inside the helmet. the beanie is really thick and comfy, and when you pull out all the pads on the inside of the helmet, it fits perfectly on my head and remains comfortably snug, without being too small.



my level of radness... it just can't... be quantified.
