sizing is off
Just purchased this helmet so obviously haven't skied yet. The helmet looks nice and appears well made. the problem is sizing. I measured at the very low end of Large, almost medium. I purchased size large and the helmet is too small. Very strange since I've been skiing in a size large Vantage that is a little too large.

Not as advertised
XL was perfect fit but says I’m a large. Two major issues with this product. Advertised removable ear pad but untrue unless you cut the strap guides off. If you do that you would still have to remove the entire liner to wear without the pads as they are one piece. Returning….

No, I do not recommend this product
Checked out helmets at main REI store. Accel goggle strap on back snapped after trying with second set of goggles. Seemed to be cheap rubber. Probably worse in cold weather. Went with the Smith vantage mips, more $ but much better system.

Smith Accel Mips Helmit
Thank you for giving me credit for a new Helmit. This is a great looking helmit. My other helmit had silicone marks from my Goggles that had a silicone defects. You also sent me new Goggles. I appreciate your sending me both new Goggles and helmit. You really stand behind all your products.
