Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

I've got a Skull Comp with chinguard. It's lightweight for a full FIS spec helmet and the chinguard is very sturdy. I've used three or four different helmets and this one fits me the best, although that will vary from person to person. It does block out a bit of sound, but in bad weather I think it will do a great job at keeping you warm.

rob@rar, You forgot to mention the Barbie Make-up bag that the Helmet comes in.
Quality, protection & lightness are unsupassed.
Unlike most helmets, which rely on a Polystyrene liner for protection, POC use a carbon fibre shell like a motorsports helmet, so give much better protection with less bulk.

Oh yes, it also comes with a very fetching travel case which could happily double for a large make-up case. Scott really likes his, apparently...

Do you know if all helmets meet the FIS rules for racing?

This is the one I'm thinking of getting:

Not yet decided if i'm going to race, but want one i could use just in case. The one you have Rob is £250, i don't really want to spend that much!

beanie1, mine fits very well and is comfortable, but does make it a bit hard to hear with the solid bits over your ears....

A good place to see if helmets confrom is check out the bartletts catelogue. The main rule seems to be no vents or holes of anykind.

Whatever helmet you decide on I will donate my POC travel case to you if you want Laughing

beanie1, You need the Skull Comp for Racing, it's the only one of their range FIS approved. The POC Armour is pretty special too, much better than the Motorbike derived Dainese stuff, the POC Armour is designed for skiing. The Gloves are great too.

 So if you're just off somewhere snowy come back and post a snow report of your own and we'll all love you very much

This seasons POC doesn't come with the Barbie Make-Up bag, looks like skimottaret, & rob@rar, are the lucky ones.

The thought did cross my mind, but only for the briefest of moments Wink The white one did look nice though, but took the safe option of black eventually.

beanie1 glad you got one sorted out.
