Bluetooth Helmets? - Snowboarding Forum

So I'm looking to pick up a new helmet for this season. Nothing really wrong with my old one but I wanted to pick up a helmet with bluetooth technology so I can get my calls if needed and also stream some music. Not sure if any of these have the music streaming ability yet so I figured I'd ask on here to see if anyone has one of these and how well it works. I know Giro and Smith both make BT equiped helmets any others out there?

The BT on my Giro G9 took a shit in half a season. Great helmet, but shitty BT connectivity. It'd stick with your current helmet and pick up a Motorola S9 headset.

good to know... I was looking at the S9 as a replacement for my Ultimate Ears headphones in general but I'd have to see how they fit with my helmet.
