Giro Bad Lieutenant Snow Helmet

This helmet is great for those of us who grew up skiing and snowboarding before the era of helmets, we make our kids wear them, so it's time for the adults to wear one too--this one is great looking, and proved to be worth our money even on it's maiden voyage down the mountain... on the last ride of the day, my husband took a digger, and landed hard on the back of his head. He was glad he was wearing it, and loves it!

I was snowboarding in Whistler-Blackcomb and realized that I really needed to protect my head on such steep and rocky slopes back in 2004. I bought this helmet there and have used it for every season since. It is very comfortable and warm and has protected my head in several bad crashes. I couldn't be happier with this helmet and I'm hoping it will last me for many more seaons to come.

I have the version wrapped in white leather. I love the helmet! It looks sweet. It's very comfortable. The Tune-Ups (Giro/Skullcandy) work amazing. Make sure that you get the Tune-Ups that have buttons and not just tabs. I had to send the first ones back, but they are worth it. So convenient and very loud. The only thing that I would mention is that it holds heat pretty well. On warm days you'll probably want to take it off when you stop.

Well, I hop eNEVER to test this product to its max capability. It looks nice and sturdy, though. I will wear it with confidence.

I purchased this helmet for my 13-year-old son. The quality is excellent and he thinks it's a cool helmet for the slopes and snow adventures.
