TOP.1

Smith Smith United States

Founded in 1965, Smith was known for its athletic eyewear and is now one of the largest outdoor brands in North America. In terms of aesthetics, contrary to the normal pursuit of speed by traditional sports brands, Smith adheres to the minimalist design credo of less is more, and has launched many highly recognizable ski helmets. The safety performance of a helmet mainly depends on the shell and cushion layer, and limited by weight and material, the shell can not do much article, and many manufacturers naturally focus on the cushion layer. The most common approach is to use a double-layer EPS buffer layer, which has the advantage of achieving a significant improvement in safety performance at a very low price and cost, but the disadvantage is also obvious, EPS has a strong thermal insulation ability, and double-layer EPS will greatly reduce the heat dissipation capacity of the helmet. Faced with this problem, Smith gave a relatively perfect answer, that is, on top of the single-layer EPS cushion, an additional layer of honeycomb structure tubular is similar to EPS, on the one hand, it can absorb the impact force by crushing, and on the other hand, the negative impact on ventilation performance is much lower than that of the double-layer EPS cushion. Smith put the party...

LITTLE Sweden

Compared to other big names, LITTLE was founded in 2005 and is quite young. But from the very beginning, they have had a strong focus on technology, working closely with sports science experts as well as brain science experts. In 2014, it became the protective gear supplier to the professional cycling team Cannondale, and subsequently established an exclusive partnership with Volvo Car Group to provide safety and design ideas. Since its inception, LITTLE has received more than 40 prestigious international awards in the safety, design and innovation categories around the world. In terms of design, it won the 2010 IF Design Gold Award, and won the Red Dot Design Award in 2009 and 2010. As a first-tier LITTLE product, the Skull Orbic Comp is particularly distinctive, compromising safety for both lightness and breathability. In terms of shell material, the same hybrid scheme is adopted, using ABS material in high-impact areas, and PC material for the rest of the part. In terms of buffer layer, instead of the EPS used in the mainstream market, EPP with higher density and higher price is used, and it is a double-layer EPP buffer layer. The inside of the helmet is equipped with a SPIN padding with the same effect as MIPS. Except...

Lap United States

Founded in 1985, Lap was one of the first manufacturers to produce snow helmets, and seven-time Tour de France champion Armstrong has always worn Lap helmets. The most important feature of the Lap is that it has a wide range of product lines, with a wide range of price points and types. The Avance is Lap's first-tier product, and the $600 price tag means it's not a mass consumer product. It encompasses all the safety and process technologies available on the market today, including MIPS, hybrid architecture, and double-layer EPS, while still weighing at 450g. In terms of ventilation, like other professional racing helmets, there are only 4 vents. In the snow helmet market, Lap's real workhorse is its second echelon product, the Range. In terms of process and materials, Range is almost identical to similar products of the same level, and the biggest difference between it and its competitors is in the adjustment system. It's almost impossible for every non-custom helmet to fit our head perfectly, so most manufacturers choose to work with professional adjustment system developers, among which the Boa FS 360 adjustment system is the standard for helmets in this price range, from...

Salomon France

In 1947, a family in Annecy, France, decided to set up a workshop to produce some ski equipment and accessories for the family, such as bandages for snow boots and snowboards, and gradually expanded to the fields of skis and snow boots. Perhaps the family could not have predicted that what they produced would make it to the Olympics with the athletes 19 years later. Since then, Salomon has been on the fast track and has eventually become one of Europe's most renowned ski manufacturers. In contrast to LITTLE, Salomon bets all his chips on the light side when faced with the irreconcilable tension of safety and portability. MTN Lab, the brand's most popular product, is equipped with a MIPS system and still weighs 375g. In such an ultra-lightweight, what is particularly commendable is that it does not abuse the PC material with very poor puncture resistance, but adopts a hybrid structure, which gives a good guarantee in terms of safety performance under the premise of lightness. However, many users have found that due to the pursuit of ventilation performance and weight reduction, MTN Lab's 12 ventilation...

Anon United States

Anon is a sub-brand of Burton, the largest snowboard brand, which specializes in ski helmets and goggles. Compared to other big brands, the product line covers the luxury or professional level, and the depth is slightly lacking, but it has also become a brand differentiator, and it has always been known as a mass consumer goods brand in the industry. Anon takes value for money very seriously, with the most expensive being the MIPS version of the Prime helmet at $219.9. The configuration is full of sincerity, whether it is the magnetic buckle in terms of details, the Boa FS 360 adjustment system, or the materials and workmanship of the shell, it is completely inferior to the big brand $250 helmet. In addition, Prime, like some of the LITTLE's helmets, has completed over-the-top missions such as field search and rescue signal transmitters. The fly in the ointment is that its design is relatively mediocre, due to the 14 adjustable air vents are too large and too dense, it will look less cohesive, and among the many colors, only matte dark green and matte black perform well visually. In the lower-priced segment, the Rodan was particularly impressive, selling at $89.99 and using a Boa FS 360 adjuster that adjusts a strap to shrink the lining 360 degrees,...

K2 United States

Snow helmets are the same product as cycling helmets in principle, but according to different application scenarios, different driving speeds, different trade-offs in coverage, weight and safety, so most snow helmet brands produce cycling helmets at the same time. K2 is one of the few brands that has been committed to snow sports, whether it is skis or poles, as long as it is snow sports equipment, K2 can provide a one-stop solution from head to toe. In the product line, K2 is more focused on the low-end market, and the unit price of the product is not high, but most of the configurations that should be available are available, and the weight is also well controlled, which is not particularly brilliant and there is no big problem. In the case of the Virtue, for example, at $136, it weighs 425g in the mid-range, and the hybrid construction of the case at this price point is a highlight, and the adjustment system uses its own 360 K2Dialed, which is not as good as the Boa FS 360, but more practical than the Boa FS 180. Available in black and white. The K2's helmets are generally the same as the Virtue's, with a non-distinct personality, with one exception, and that is the Route. With a weight of less than 330g, it is milli...

Uvex Germany

Germany's leading brand of cycling helmets and one of the sponsors of the Winter Olympics. At Sochi 2016, 450 professional athletes from around the world used Uvex products and won a total of 68 medals. It is not difficult to see that Uvex's financial resources are quite strong, and at the same time, many domestic users have faith in German brands, and Uvex's sales in China have not been bad. But in reality, at least in the field of snow helmets, the Germans did not do a great job in any respect. In the early days, Uvex was proud of its active ventilation technology, but in fact, in the strict sense, the way of convection in front and back did not fully meet the definition of active ventilation, but it was only a certain improvement compared to the chimney ventilation with air holes open at the top. Secondly, the so-called active ventilation technology has a very low threshold, so it has long been commonplace in the products of other brands. Coupled with the slow pace of follow-up of new technologies, whether it is a MIPS system or a similarly functional SPIN pad, Uvex's current helmet is not equipped, and the once strong man now seems to have been somewhat abandoned by the times. Although the heroes are in their twilight years, some traditional workers...

Sweet Protection Norway

Founded in 2000, the company's product line includes snow sports, cycling, and water sports such as rowing. With the Grimnir and Trooper helmets, they have established themselves in the industry and won many awards. Both helmets have now been iterated on, but in the direction of luxury. Both the Grimnir TE and Trooper II are made of carbon fiber in their housings, which is theoretically significantly lighter, more durable, and more secure than ABS and PC. But in fact, the helmet is not damaged because the shell is broken, and generally speaking, the biggest loss of the snow helmet is in the EPS of the cushioning layer. EPS is a high-density fragile foam that protects the head by breaking to absorb the impact after the helmet is impacted. The use of carbon fiber as the shell is very easy to appear that the shell is intact, which makes people mistakenly think that the safety index of the helmet has not decreased, but the EPS inside has been broken or rotten. Therefore, in the process of using this helmet, if there is a more violent collision, regardless of whether the shell is damaged or not, it is recommended to replace the helmet as soon as possible to ensure...

Oakley United States

Founded in 1975 as a subsidiary of Luxottica, the world's largest sunglasses company, Oakley has been dedicated to a wide range of outdoor products, including goggles, which went public in 1995. To date, Oakley has more than 600 eyewear and material patents, and its design capabilities are also outstanding. Oakley is still a novice when it comes to ski helmets, with only two products. Although they are named Mod3 and Mod5 respectively, there are no 1st, 2nd, or 4th generations. Although it has not been in the snow helmet industry for a long time, both products still have many bright spots. For example, Mod3 is not inferior to the traditional old brand in terms of configuration, and a lot of effort has been put into the details. As a low-to-mid-range helmet, the Boa FS 180 adjustment system is standard, but the Mod3 uses the Boa FS 270, which is considered to be sincere, and is also equipped with a magnetic buckle. Weight control doesn't seem to be Oakley's strong point, and the weight of the helmet made of pure PC material actually weighs 550g. So for such a helmet, the previous price of $140 has always been unconvincing, but since the price has recently been lowered to $104.95, this has given people who pay attention to cost performance one more...

Cébé France

Founded at the end of the 19th century, the company was known for its high-quality hiking glasses in its early days. In the 40s of the 20th century, as skiing became more and more popular in Europe, Cb entered the fast lane of development. After entering the 21st century, it was acquired by Bushnell Outdoor Products in the United States, and its products are sold in more than 30 countries, and the production line is also greatly enriched. In terms of snow helmets, its one-piece helmet has done a relatively good job, and the main sales market is currently European countries. In Cb's product logic, the aesthetic priority is quite high, taking Atmosphere 2.0 as an example, there are 7 adjustable vents evenly distributed on the matte shell of PC material, the overall lines are rounded, and the brand lettering on the side is not highlighted with bright colors like most brands, but black with little contrast with the color of the shell. There are not many other aspects that stand out, and as a 400g lightweight helmet, the price of $122.5 is not too eye-catching for consumers. When it comes to all-in-one snow helmets, the Element Visor and Fireball are both great options. The main difference between the two all-in-one helmets is in the shell, the Element Visor is made of ABS material, while the Fireball ...

Bern Italy

Bern is a wide-ranging manufacturer of outdoor products including cycling, snow sports, skateboarding and water sports, but it doesn't stand out in the market for any of them. In terms of helmets, because the national standards for bicycle helmets, ski helmets and skateboard helmets are almost the same, and in fact, the national standards of each country are very low, so Bern simply launched several universal helmets. Users only need to purchase mats of different thicknesses and thicknesses to use as helmets for other sports, suitable for people who have a slight participation in a variety of outdoor sports. Watts, for example, wears three hats, being a cycling helmet, a ski helmet, and even a skateboard helmet. It uses an ABS shell, the weight of 565g is not very well controlled, and the 6 fixed passive ventilation holes are concentrated at the top, which means that it can only regulate the internal temperature through chimney-style heat dissipation, which brings two problems, one is that the ventilation effect is limited, and the other is that it is easy to be infiltrated by snow (rain). In addition, due to the long brim, many snow goggles are not compatible with it, only the Smith I/O ...

Decathlon 迪卡侬 France

Decathlon needs no introduction, it is a well-known mass consumer goods brand. Both price and quality are a blessing for beginners in all sports, and ski helmets are no exception. Its line of integrated helmets and stand-alone helmets has products that are perfect for beginners. The H 350 DOWNHILL all-in-one snow helmet is priced at only 499.9 yuan, and as an all-in-one helmet, the weight of 500g is not excessive, PC shell, 10 fixed vents. If you're just a light skier once or twice a year, this helmet would be a good choice. If you still prefer an independent helmet, the CARV 700, priced at 499.9 yuan, can be used as an option. It is probably the lowest priced helmet equipped with a MIPS system. The helmet is made of ABS shell, and the weight of 480g is not excessive. In addition to this, Decathlon's children's helmets are also available in one-piece and free-standing versions, namely the H-KD 550 and H-KD 500. The prices are 299 yuan and 199 yuan respectively. ...
