Snowboard helmets are safety and protective headgear designed to withstand the extreme conditions in snowboarding. They are similar to ski helmets but often with more aggressive and edgy look. They are lightweight helmets made with stiff and closed cell foam on the inside to prevent water from getting in and to absorb sweat. They have hard outer shells that protect the head from all sorts of impacts while snowboarding such as falling on hard-packed snow and ice, and colliding with trees, rocks, and other snowboarders or skiers. They are lined with soft padding for shock absorption and a snug fit.
Fit: Choose a snowboard helmet with no gaps. The padding should be flush against your forehead and cheeks, but the skin on your forehead should move when you roll the helmet off your head. The back of the helmet should not touch the nape of your neck for flexibility. Ventilation: Choose a snowboard helmet with vents that open and close to keep your head from sweating. Added features: Look for a snowboard helmet with stereo capabilities if you want portable entertainment while snowboarding.
