Know-how

Which helmet standard is intended for what?

EN 1077 applies to alpine ski and snowboard helmets. According to DIN, Class A covers more of the head and has higher penetration-resistance requirements than Class B. The specific class is listed for the model if stated.

For ski touring, the manufacturer's intended use also matters. Mountaineering certification is a separate specification. It does not follow from the name touring helmet or from a ski-touring category.

How do you check the fit?
  • Measure your head circumference and compare it with the model's size chart.
  • Try the helmet and ski goggles on together. Both should sit close without causing pressure points.
  • Adjust the straps and fit system according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Choose children's helmets based on their current head circumference. A helmet that is too large is not room for growth.
Fixed or adjustable ventilation?

Fixed openings stay open. Adjustable openings let you change the airflow. This can be an important selection criterion for sweaty ascents.

A ventilation system does not guarantee fog-free goggles. When trying them on together, also make sure that the helmet and goggles do not block each other's ventilation channels.

When is a visor helmet worthwhile?

An integrated goggle visor combines the helmet and lens. If you wear prescription glasses, check whether the specific model is suitable and try both on together.

A removable sun peak is not a goggle visor. Optional accessories are only included if the contents list them.

What does the weight tell you?

A weight comparison requires the same size and circumference. If the weighed size is missing, the figure is not a fair basis for comparing helmets.

Additional systems such as Mips or AMID are equipment specifications. We do not derive a ranking of protective performance or any promise about accident outcomes from their names.

Frequently asked questions

Can I go ski touring in any ski helmet?

Check whether the manufacturer describes the specific model as suitable for ski touring. For climbing sections, you also need the appropriate approval and standard. A shop category alone does not answer this.

Are all helmets with MIPS built the same way?

No. The shell, fit system and ventilation differ. The additional system is a feature; we make no promises about a specific effect in an accident.

Does every ski goggle fit every helmet?

You need to check the fit together. Wording about integration with a brand does not replace trying on your own goggles.
