The Importance Of A Snow Helmet

Even with extreme caution and safety measures, snowboarding and skiing still carry a certain amount of risk. In the event of an unfortunate accident, a snow helmet is a crucial piece of safety gear to keep you from suffering head injuries. It's crucial to instil excellent habits in kids, so they can enjoy winter sports for the rest of their lives. Our selection of snowboarding and skiing helmets on sale provide the highest level of safety while yet being cosy and useful to wear.

How much does a Snow Helmet cost?

Snow helmets cost between $110 and $350, with higher end ski helmets and snow helmets ranging up to $800. Adult snow helmets come with a variety of features that are intended to keep your head secure and pleasant in the event of an accident. Premium helmets typically start at $180 and have adjustable vents to let the head cool off and BOA closure systems to let the helmet's size be adjusted by millimetres for the optimal fit. Although certain helmets have special foams and structures made to be lighter and absorb more energy upon impact, all decent snow ski and snowboard helmets are safe. The cost of a good kids snow helmet often ranges from $100 to $150 due to their smaller size. Even though buying a snow helmet is an expense, doing so could protect you from suffering a serious head injury. Aside from quality, the cost of some snow helmet varieties may differ based on their visual appeal and design and advanced technology. It's up to you how much money you spend on the exterior of your helmet to show off your style, but never skimp on the quality of the helmet only to save a few dollars.

What Size Helmet Do I Need?

You shouldn't use someone else's sizing to establish yours because the fit of a ski and snowboard helmet depends on your own head size and shape. Choosing a ski and snowboard helmet size can be as simple as trying on a few different helmets at the ski shop until you find one that fits well. Make sure to get a helmet that is the proper size for your head right now rather than one that gives you room to grow into, as oversized helmets are dangerous. To identify your size and get the right helmet fit when purchasing a helmet from a ski shop online, you'll need a more precise measurement. All our ski and snow helmets online at Auski come with size charts to help you find the exact helmet for you. We also have an easy return and exchange policy at Auski – all online purchased items to be returned for refund or exchange and must be shipped back to Auski within 30 days of the original purchase. It's simple to determine your ski helmet size by wrapping a measuring tape around the widest section of your head, right above the ears and eyebrows, and using that measurement to guide your helmet selection. Any snow helmet brand you choose will include a sizing chart you may use to compare your measurements to.

How Tightly Should a Ski Helmet Fit?

After learning how to size a helmet, you must also learn how to adjust your helmet correctly. Your helmet should be comfortable, but it should fit snugly for safety reasons. There shouldn't be a space between the top of your snow goggles and the helmet when it is properly adjusted to fit your head size. These three essential adjustment characteristics are present in the majority of ski and snowboard helmets.

Sizing: You may change the tightness of your ski helmet to prevent it from rolling off your head using either partial or complete adjustment features. You can reduce part of the additional space between your helmet and head by turning a size dial.
Earpads: Removable earpads might help your ski helmet sit more comfortably on your head by taking up some extra space inside of it. You might be able to adjust the fit of your snow helmet by switching to thicker earpads.
Chinstrap or buckle: Fasten the chinstrap and pull it until it is snug enough to prevent the snow helmet from coming off after impact, but slack enough to allow you to chew food comfortably.

Depending on the head size and shape, a snowboard helmet should snug. To verify the fit of your ski helmet, try doing a shake test by swiftly tilting your head from side to side. It is too loose if the helmet sways back and forth on your head. If your snow helmet still moves when you shake your head after adjusting it, consider a smaller size. Shrinking the helmet's sizing mechanism, adding earpads, and tightening the strap can only go so far.

What Ski Helmet Should I Buy?

The features to look for in a ski helmet depend on both personal preferences and safety. Once you've discovered a helmet with adequate safety characteristics, such as those mentioned above, you have a few aesthetically pleasing helmet features to take into account before making your ultimate helmet choice. Pay attention to these details to customise your helmet.

Choose a helmet in a colour that best represents your distinct personality. There is no reason why you can't shred some powder while maintaining a good appearance and being well-protected.
For music aficionados, some helmets come with built-in sound systems that include power and volume settings, allowing you to jam out while descending the mountain. Other helmets with audio compatibility have compartments within the earpads where you can put your earbuds so you may listen to music.
Compatible camera mounts: Get a snow helmet that you can easily mount a GoPro camera to if you want to record all your thrilling descents of the mountain on video.
Removable liner: If you choose a snow helmet with a removable liner, cleaning your helmet will be simpler. If the liner of your helmet is removable, you can remove it, wash it, and then replace it to restore the feeling of a brand-new helmet.

Brand considerations are also important while selecting a snow helmet. Research the various manufacturers because the greatest winter sport brands have a reputation that speaks for themselves. Here are three of the best manufacturers of ski and snowboard helmets to get you started.

Smith: Smith, a leader in ski goggles, takes pride in producing cutting-edge ski helmets as well using the most recent technology available. Smith snow helmets are renowned for their superior protective features, ground-breaking ventilation technology, and inventive goggle and helmet integration.
