This is the apex of mountain helmets. Fit is superb and the Spherical system allows for micro adjustments front and back to get the perfect fit. Absolutely zero goggle gap! Ear pads are comfy and removable. The FidLock clasp is super easy to use. Liner is very nice, keeps my head warm and the adjustable fit helps dial in the feel for different conditions and gear. Vents work well and help heat escape up top when open. 110% satisfied, another great helmet from Giro!!!

The helmet works perfectly for my growing girl. The removable liner was perfect when she outgrew the original size and with it removed, it fits just as well. The ventilation works perfectly keeping my daughter at the right temperature this way she isn ’ t too cold at the top and doesn ’ t overheat at the bottom. A true plus is that she also likes the look of it. A superb helmet for any kid!

This Smith Method Pro MIPS helmet is amazing! The reason that I bought this helmet is because of all the great reviews and studies I read on impact protection. I am one that prefers function over form. However, this helmet accomplished both. The fit is perfect and the helmet really looks great in the military green color that I bought it in. It is light on the head and comfortable to wear, with no pressure points when worn all day. It works well with my goggles and keeps my ears warm. I don ’ t know what else I can ask from a ski helmet!

Nicole H.
Just received the helmet; seems to be of good quality and a good replacement for my Smith Maze that has taken quite a beating with no concussion/brain injuries. Love the mips. The tailored temporal part dips in a bit and puts a bit of pressure, so maybe not the best fit if you have a big head.

I x27; ve had two of these helmets. The first one got a large crack in the back after hitting my head on the snow, but I didn x27; t get a concussion. I x27; ve slammed my head pretty hard a few times in the second one, as well, but every time I x27; ve been completely fine. I just got a big dent after a hard hit, so I will be replacing it again.

Zongo
[ Much to my relief, this helmet is pretty warm. It seems that any time I 've gone skiing this year the temps have been in the negatives( Fahrenheit) and evidently there's not a whole lot the helmet is protecting, since I forgot to wear my hat underneath it for a while, but it was a good hour before I was wondering why my ears were starting to get cold. My mountain bike helmet has MIPS, and I 've found out first- hand how well that works, so I have real confidence in the helmet to keep me safe for when I get false confidence in my lacking ability on the slopes. Does n't look half- bad, either.

Aleea
I have been skiing many times is multiple resorts. I am an intermediate skier. I prefer the fun greens/ blues. I can ski black diamonds, but honestly I prefer the ease of skiing rather than the competitiveness. I was skiing an easy run. The run was narrower surrounded with beautiful trees and cabins. I noticed a skied off area where there was a ton of noticeable ice. I attempted to move to the right to avoid most of the icy snow. I did hit a patch, which increased my speed. It was Ll fine but right after the ice patch was a mogul, followed by another larger mogul. After having the speed from the ice hitting that first unexpected mogul sent me in a non- controlled tumble. After hitting the second mogul, I was airborne. My head broke my fall. I remember my head hitting and bouncing back. My husband was right behind me, so I loved right away. I was okay and able to ski home. I made skied away without a concussion, or even worse. I did get whiplash, but no lasting effects. I am a walking advertisement for this life saving helmet. I literally own my life to Smith ski helmets. I am BEYOND grateful for your technology, and safety features. I can not thank you enough. If you ’ re reading this thinking of purchasing a helmet. Do not think twice. It may safe your life too.

Will
Lets start with the quality of the materials. I assumed that before I picked up the helmet it would 've weighed heavier but to my surprise it is pretty lightweight!( In comparison to other companies I have used). The ventilation system worked perfectly. I am a hot bodied individual and during those hard charging days it can be difficult staying cool and keeping your goggles from fogging up. The contour of the helmet matched perfectly with the contour of my Oakley Fall Line XL goggles. Unfortunately I have yet to try it with my other products to provide other users a better review. Only thing I noticed was how much further the goggles stuck out a little because of the helmets short brim. Other than that the smith Maze with MIPS is definitely worth the investment to add to your line- up of safety gear and for the protection of your noggin.
5
superextremesnowboarder
[ I bought this a short bit ago and have n't had a chance to get on snow with yet, but did try it on. As I found out, the addition of the MIPS to the existing Maze design means that the helmet fits small. I wear a Large in the Smith Holt that I 've had for years, but the Large Maze MIPS is just tight enough to be uncomfortable. I 'll exchange it though, as the fit system was great, vents looked good and the look was perfect. More feedback... the ear covers dampened a lot of sound, more than my Holt ever did.

Emilio S.
Unlike other brands, what I love about Smith is the consistency between sizes. If you wear a medium in their bike helmet, you will be medium in their snowboard helmet. If you do not know what size you wear, their size chart is true to the helmet size. As for the Maze, it is truly warm. I do not like helmets with vents on the top, as they can let in snow. This one does not.

I 've just purchased a Vantage helmet for my son after owning one myself for the past year- if these helmets are n't the best on the market then I do n't know what is. Super comfortable fit with good adjustment, light weight, great ventilation and looks great. I 've used mine exclusively off piste in Niseko which can get very cold and windy. The adjustable ventilation is a big plus- the Vantage helmet kept my head and ears warm and toasty on the lifts and nice and cool on the runs down. Some have complained that the adjustable boa catches on the collar of your jacket inadvertently adjusting the fit. While you can occasionally feel it catching, I have not experienced the adjustment changing nor really noticed it. A little expensive but well worth it.

[ This was a gift for my dad, and he likes it. It has a great, seamless fit with his Giro goggles, and the ventilation is good. He did notice that it pushed down on his goggles slightly on his nose.

Stinger
[ Bought this as I wanted a little beefier dome protection after taking big hit mid- season with my last helmet and needed new one. Chose matte petrol and was happy to see what this color really looks like, a matted darker blue with a very faint iridescence that is really cool, but not flashy. Haven ’ t seen anyone around with this color helmet, as doesn ’ t have two tone color scheme many of the other quantum ’s around. Helmet fits great, 58cm head, and large size has enough room for balaclava I use when colder. Very comfy without looking like bobblehead. ODT Chips audio fits great for sound on mountain and venting is solid. I use Smith I/OX goggs and perfect integration as one might expect... no gaps, no fog, no issues. Great helmet option for increased dome protection!

Sexy North Face Ski Jacke
[ Okay, I 'm in the `` This helmet fits great! '' camp. I 've read several reviews about bad fitment but I did not find that to be the case. The helmet has an expandable rib on either side of the helmet. When placing it on my head I squeezed the bottom ends/sides toward the base of my skull while tightening the adjustment dial on the back. At first it was a little too tight but in about five minutes or so it felt great and I never needed to adjust it again. I just skied five days straight in Aspen and the two days it snowed were pretty darn cold. The helmet kept my head both warm and dry and I never felt the need to take it off until lunch or the end of the day. I use Dragon goggles and there were no incompatibility issues at all.

I love this helmet! I am a Ski Instructor in Aspen, Colorado and wear this helmet daily during the winter.

mp123
[ There's no such thing as a safe, light, and inexpensive helmet... you ca n't have all three. So, this helmet might not be the most inexpensive but it is a name brand from a trusted retailer( I will not take my chance on other sites where they may try to pass a counterfeit), it is light and comfortable, warm, and looks good. The vents direct air to the inside of my goggles to help with preventing fog. My hand hit the dial on back which loosened the helmet only once by accident. The ratcheting system worked for me with no issues after that at all,... despite what other reviewers said. I 'd recommend it.

Yeayea
[ I ’ ve used this helmet on warm Southern California slopes and in horrid conditions in British ’s Colombia. It is extremely comfortable and the fit is exceptionally customizable, the magnetic chin strap is awesome and makes everything easy. It would entirely depend on your personal fit and how much headcover you wear under it but the helmet is not particularly warm even with the vents closed. Wearing a balaclava or skull cap barely changes the fit and you can easily fit a helmet accepting hood over it for those extra cruddy days. A nice addition is the adjustable visor which means this helmet will roll with just about every kind of goggle out there. It also has perfect spacing to give just enough venting so there ’s no fogging on those warmer days. Regarding fit I usually run on the extreme edge of medium, this helmet is perfectly true to fit and was just a hair small on me which is what I anticipated. The liner is easily removable to make room for a hat or thicker liner. All in all Oakley did a solid job on this, luckily I haven ’ t given it ’s impact resistance a solid test yet.

[ Lightweight, comfortable, and I like the mips feature. I followed sizing advice to size up because they fit a bit small, and it worked for me. The adjustment at the back helps get a good fit.

I ’ m writing this review as a retire this helmet after two 50+ day seasons and some gnarly smashes. Top notch in every aspect…fit, feel, warm when the vents are closed and cool when they ’ re open and the ear pieces removed. Works well with airpods and the goggle strap is very easy to use with gloves or mitts on. The helmet still works fine, its just seen too many impacts and im replacing it with another

bad: i 've worn a size L my entire life in smith. for some reason this helmet runs super small and gives me a massive headache. so SIZE UP. it's also a good bit heavier feeling than my previous variance. the great: the helmet is super tech heavy. the venting is great, and the thing just* feels* so much more solid and secure than any helmet i 've ever worn. i hope to never test it out in an accident, but if i do, i feel good about how it will treat me.

Great style and fit. Adjustment is a little more complicated then other helmets. Vents don ’ t open and close. Huge fan of smith though as a life long customer. Have great support!

A great fit for my seven year old while being adjustable to grow with him. The helmet keeps his head warm on cold days in the Canadian Rockies. The style is great- looks like an adult helmet.

Fits Perfectly and So Light do n't even know its on my head( of course the Mini Clava I bought to fit under it appears to help). This is from someone who NEVER wore one in more years of skiing than I would share, and was never going to wear one.

as expected. Love how warm it keeps me. Also feel like it's kind of noise cancelling

[ As a mom who would prefer to wrap my children in bubble wrap head to toe for any sporting event, this is a top notch helmet. Fortunately I can ’ t really tell you how well it works, but it is built solid. Smith has a great reputation, it is warm, and adjustable. My 9 year old wore it sledding last weekend and didn ’ t complain once. That ’s kind of rare;) I have Smith MIPS helmets for everyone in my family. They are a 2020 must for down hill skiing and long hill sledding.

We do a lot of sledding and snow tubing as a family. Problem is the slope gets icy and fast real quick. I usually make the kids wear their skate helmets. Recently My husband started wear his hockey helmet i was just wearing my wool cap and my parka hood drawn tight. I began to get worried i was going to get a concussion after watching my husband wipe out and seeing his helmeted head make contact with the frozen snow. I found the smith counter and it is awesome. protects the ears and head and keeps me warm. I have wiped out once and it kept me safe

[ Picked this up after I finally realized my old Oakley mod 3 had a few too many bumps and bruises, and I 'm very happy I did. I have oddly sensitive ears and get pain from standard ear pads on most helmets, but the mod5 has ear cups with a hollow space inside that fit perfectly. Helmet has lots of ventilation and does not feel heavy when wearing. Kept me warm on a cold day recently, and with all these vents I 'm sure it 'll be cool in the spring.. I would buy again.

[ I got this helmet because it was one of the cheapest options available that still had MIPS technology in it. This helmet is super awesome and does not feel like a cheap helmet at all. Compared to other helmets that are$ 150+ its hard to tell the difference except for minor upgrades such as a magnetic strap instead of standard buckle or slightly less fitting customization options. I would definitely recommend this helmet to someone who is looking for a cheaper, super high quality piece of safety gear for skiing, snowboarding, and even biking. It's also cool that the ear muffs come out of the helmet.

I ’ ve only been skiing for a year now, so I still have some falls every now and then. This December I went skiing in the Swiss alps and had a pretty nasty fall. I hit my head really bad and my first thought was, “ wow, I ’ m so thankful I had a helmet on! ” Because it could have been much worse. Not only that but it ’s very light weight, comfortable, and I have a white one so stylish. Super happy with this helmet!

Great features for the price. Arrived as promised.
When looking for a snowboard helmet with MIPS technology, consider features such as a lightweight design for comfort during long sessions on the slopes and adjustable ventilation to regulate temperature. A snug fit is essential for safety, so look for models with customizable sizing options. Additionally, consider the helmet's construction materials, as they can impact durability and protection. Finally, check for compatibility with goggles to ensure a seamless fit and enhanced visibility while riding.
MIPS technology enhances safety in snowboard helmets by reducing rotational forces that can occur during impacts. This system features a low-friction layer that allows the helmet to move slightly upon impact, which helps to redirect energy away from the head. By minimizing the risk of brain injuries associated with rotational forces, MIPS-equipped helmets provide an additional level of protection for snowboarders. Many riders choose these helmets for the added peace of mind they offer while enjoying their sport.
Wearing a snowboard helmet while riding provides essential protection for your head in the event of a fall or collision. It can help absorb impact forces and reduce the risk of head injuries. Additionally, many helmets are designed with features that enhance comfort and fit, allowing for better focus and performance on the slopes. Some helmets also include ventilation systems to help regulate temperature, making your ride more enjoyable.
To choose the right size for a snowboard helmet, start by measuring the circumference of your head just above your eyebrows using a flexible measuring tape. Once you have your measurement, refer to the sizing chart provided by the helmet manufacturer, as sizes can vary between brands. It's important to try on the helmet to ensure a snug fit without being too tight, and make sure it sits level on your head. Additionally, check for any adjustable features that can help customize the fit for comfort and security.
Snowboard helmets with MIPS typically feature a combination of materials designed for protection and comfort. The outer shell is often made from durable polycarbonate or ABS plastic, which provides impact resistance. Inside, a foam liner, usually made from expanded polystyrene (EPS), absorbs shock during impacts. Additionally, MIPS technology involves a low-friction layer that allows the helmet to rotate slightly upon impact, enhancing safety.
Yes, certain styles of snowboard helmets are designed to perform better in specific riding conditions. For instance, helmets with enhanced ventilation are ideal for warmer weather or intense riding, while those with more insulation are suited for colder conditions. Additionally, some helmets feature a low-profile design for park riding, while others may offer a more robust construction for backcountry or aggressive riding. Choosing the right style can enhance comfort and performance based on your riding environment.
Snowboard helmets with MIPS technology are designed to enhance comfort by incorporating a low-friction layer that allows the helmet to rotate slightly upon impact. This feature can help reduce the forces transmitted to the head, which may lead to a more comfortable fit during use. Additionally, many MIPS helmets come with adjustable ventilation systems and padding options that can further improve overall comfort. As a result, users often find that these helmets provide a snug yet comfortable fit, making them suitable for extended wear on the slopes.
When selecting a snowboard helmet, it's important to consider the fit and comfort to ensure an enjoyable experience on the slopes. Look for a helmet that fits snugly without being overly tight, as this will provide the necessary protection while allowing for comfort during extended wear. Adjustable features, such as straps and padding, can help customize the fit to your head shape. Additionally, consider ventilation options to help regulate temperature and moisture, enhancing overall comfort while snowboarding.
Yes, a snowboard helmet equipped with MIPS technology can generally be used for other winter sports, such as skiing or snowboarding. MIPS, or Multi-directional Impact Protection System, is designed to enhance safety by reducing rotational forces during impacts. While these helmets are specifically designed for winter sports, it's important to ensure that the fit and features meet the requirements of the specific activity you plan to engage in. Always check for any specific guidelines or recommendations for the sport you are participating in.
Snowboard helmets with MIPS often feature various ventilation options to enhance comfort and temperature regulation. Some models include adjustable vents that allow users to control airflow based on weather conditions or personal preference. Others may have fixed ventilation systems designed to provide consistent airflow while minimizing snow and moisture entry. The choice of ventilation can impact overall comfort during long days on the slopes, making it an important consideration when selecting a helmet.
