Replying to Searching For a New Helmet
Whatup guys, looking for a new helmet. My current one is an old Giro that I got probably 9 or more years ago. I had a severe brain injury just over a year ago from a workplace accident; I'm fully recovered but moving forward I need to avoid head injuries again, and if I'm in a "high risk" sport like skiing than a solid brand new helmet is probably a great idea.
My preferences for a new helmet are:
-MIPS or some kind of rotational impact protection
-Adjustable fit
-Removable/no ear pads
-Can be worn over a balaclava and goggle strap
-Clean minimal styling
-Somewhat lightweight
I'd like to shop locally and try some on but unfortunately both of my what were local ski/board shops have stopped dealing snow gear in the past few seasons. That's basically left me with the sole option of Sport Chek, and they have very limited and cheap options. So I'm stuck with the internet, but I'll make it happen. If anything is horrendously off on fit/safety I'll make sure I end up with a good option in the end. Any input here is appreciated, thaaaaaaanks!
