Comments about Smith Variant Brim Ski Helmet:
I bought this helmet after giving up on my Giro G9. The G9 felt too loose, and there was a large gap between helmet and goggles. Errors on my part when making my purchase. The Variant solves both those problems. Excellent initial fit is improved with a quick squeeze on the cinch strap in the back, customizing your fit. Whether you are on a straight line down a groomer, or bouncing through powder, this helmet stays in place. The brim deflects wind(as it should), and the removable inner cap can be positioned forward so your goggles overlap creating a perfect seal against the elements. I haven't tested the impact qualities yet, but the solid construction and durable materials inspire confidence. While everyone's dome is different, if this helmet feels good in the shop, you will love it on the mountain.

Comments about Smith Variant Brim Ski Helmet:
This helmet is great. It has proven me well during last years ski season. Extreamly warm and easily vented (much better than a winter hat). Only complaint would be that the visor prevents the ability to keep goggles positioned on the helmet while in the lodge. They stay above the brim of the helmet but occasionally take off and fall off the back off the back (dangle on the goggle retainer behind you).

Comments about Smith Variant Brim Ski Helmet:
I am a firm believer in wearing helmets for anything because they have saved my head on more than one occasion. I looked around for a long time and tried many different models and brands. The Variant Brim is sweet, it fits great, its warm and easy to adjust ventalation. This has to be one of the best purchases I have made in a very long time. I highly, highly recommend this helmet.

Comments about Smith Variant Brim Ski Helmet:
Generally I love this helmet. it fits my head well, is compatible with my goggles (also Smith), and has great venting options. My one complaint is that it is a bit heavy compared to similarly priced helmets. However it fit my head best, and I am not disappointed in the purchase at all.

Comments about Smith Variant Brim Ski Helmet:
this is my first year using helmet,thought would be bulky and uncomfortable,but it is very comfortable, love the ventalation adjustment fiture. i paid $10 extra bought the brim g10 mx kind b/c i thought it would block the sun as visor, but it does not. sun still shines in my eyes on lift chair, it also gets in the way trying to put on goggles. should have bought the regular type g10
