Reviews - Giro Sport Design Encore 2 Helmet

5 Stars Activemom2 - 2011-03-11

Practical Investment
This helmet has now been used by my teen daughter several times and fits well. It stays in place well once adjusted correctly and holds the goggles with a snap clip which I think is a good idea for when the kids let their goggles dangle while carrying their helmets. My son has a different design/brand helmet and his goggles are always falling off. After trying this helmet on I decided to purchase an additional one for myself as we are trying to set a good example on safety for our children. I was surprised how comfortable the helmet was to wear while skiing. I really didn't even notice that I had it on and it didn't interfere with my vision as I was worried that it might.

Good helmet, well-priced, and so cute!
I bought this helmet after reading reviews and specs of similar Giro models, as well as a Burton RED helmet that I wore as a rental and liked. Deciding factors for me were: 1. A snowboard instructor recommended it, 2. It has more air vents than other helmets, 3. The design (orange tulips) was so cute, and 4. It was on sale. I wore it on the slope for the first time this past weekend, and was very happy with it. The different thicknesses of foam pads allowed me to create a comfortable fit, it worked well with my goggles, and the chin strap was comfortable. I was worried that it would feel heavy and cumbersome after a full day of riding (it's about 6-8 ounces heavier than most helmets) but it didn't. And I love the cute and distinctive design! I gave it 4 stars for durability and comfort b/c I haven't owned it long enough to judge the first, and my ear got a little chafed near the end from something - but I'm sure I could adjust something and fix that.
