Currently rocking a Costco helmet, doesn't look the best but it's got good protection. I'm looking for a helmet used by mainly park skiers, still generally works as a helmet, and isn't to expensive.

smith holt's are cheap and loads of people use them

Personally, I love my giro combyn but that's a bit more expensive.

I agree. The smith holt would be a good way to go. That being said I also absolutely love my combyn helmet. its my favorite one I've ever owned.

I currently own the Smith Maze and it is such a great helmet. Its so light you can barely even tell you are wearing a helmet. its a little pricey but it is definitely worth the money. I highly recommend it.

Im on my second Bern Baker EPS and havent looked back. My first one saw a big tumble while longboarding and I personally deemed it not snow worthy just to be cautious (have already had concussions from sports). It could probably work fine and a loan it to friends when they dont have a helmet but I got a second one and it holds up perfectly after two seasons on it. It also comes with two liners (summer and winter) and they can both be removed for all your beanie wearing needs.

i recently got a giro ledge mips and have been really impressed with what i got for my money, its not the cheapest but its not poc level of pricing. it is still a single serious impact helmet but its light, comfy, fits goggles under it well and with the mips system, helps reduce any concussions.

I use a basic pro-Tec helmet. If you like the looks they're good helmets

Smith gage or holt. Best cheap helmets IMO. I ride a sanbox classic but they are pricey. Same with POC
