best helmet for a skinny head - Snowboarding Forum

mesomike · 12-15-2010, 10:13 PM

I am looking into getting a helmet. I have more of a skinny shaped head and am having trouble finding one that looks/fits decent. Any thoughts. I have anon googles so I would like them to fit with it.

I'm not exactly sure what helmet to suggest to you, but you could put some extra padding in the helmet to make it fit.

well anon is burton's goggle company right? So if you want something that's supposed to fit with it, you should go with burton's helemet company: RED

Try the RED helmets out at your local shop.

you might want to start with the RED Theory : Theory Helmet | Burton Snowboards

the theory and I think a few others have some "airband" thing that pumps air into the padding to customize the fit...Sounds like its what you're looking for and since its RED it should fit your anon's

I used to have the old HIFI II audio but I'm over them. They're not that bad but the audio ear pieces are too bulky/get uncomfortable after awhile, and its not good for skinny heads..its a pretty round helmet.

I just bought a Bern Watts, hoping that works better

I am seriously thinking about the watts or the baker. Let me know how it works.
