Ratchet is too low
As another reviewer pointed out, the ratcheting synch on the back of this helmet is too low and will dig into your neck if tightened at all. The shell already extends below where these mechanisms usually grab onto your occipital lobe to prevent forward rotation....this being lower still ends up doing the opposite; pushing the front of the helmet forward and downward over your forehead because there isn't really room for it. It's....sorta workable if left fully loose, mostly fine until you look up or tilt your head back. I am considering cutting it out if I keep this thing, but obviously that's an "at your own risk" move.The rest is decent - liner is comfortable enough, vents work and seem to be easily operable with a nice over-center 'clack' and I like the overall shape...there is little enough brim to allow resting goggles just off your face (my last helmet had a brim that pretty effectively prevented this....more annoying than you might think).Grey color is just about dead on 50% grey ...a little lighter than it appears in the photo here and not as taupe.Considering this is less than half the price of the last helmet I got, it's probably fine....just make sure you wear it around a bit and look up when you try it on.

Looks really COOL!
I got the matt silver/grey for my big-head 20yo son. He's 6'6" 280lbs and he has a hard time finding a helmet large enough of any kind. This helmet fits him great. He loves to snowboard. I love that his brain will be protected!

Great value
The fit is pretty good, even for a bald guy like myself. I like the vents as it helps to keep from overheating.

Good quality for the money, good fit
Nice helmet at an incredible value. Sizing seemed correct. Earmuffs don't have a slot to put headphones or other sound device. The slider that closes the vent has a lot of friction. Other than that, great helmet and amazing price.

Not goggle compatible
Helmet looks ok and fits not bad. Is adjustable. However I tried 6 different brands of goggles and they all do not sit well, constantly pushing on my nose. Bolle/Iris/Oakley/anon/smith/Scott. My whole bag full and all the same.

Goggle Clip Fell Off During First Use
The helmet looks and fits great. However, during the first use the bottom part of the goggle clip fell off when my daughter was skiing. Without the clip, the goggles do not remain in place. The helmet would be great if I could find a replacement clip.
