Types of snowboard helmets: which one to choose for yourself?
A well-fitted helmet is a basic element of a snowboarder's equipment. At Sportano, you will find helmets that combine safety and wearing comfort. Regardless of your experience level, our helmets will protect you from the consequences of falls. Find out what characterizes the equipment available at Sportano and what you should pay attention to when choosing it.
Adjustment system and fastening
To fulfill its task and ensure safety, the helmet must be properly selected. It should not be too loose or too tight. Snowboard helmets available in our offer have a special size adjustment system, thanks to which they have a universal size. You do not have to worry about measuring the circumference and looking for a matching size. The fastenings of our snowboard helmets are also adjustable to ensure a secure fit every time you ride.
Shell
Various technologies are used in the production of snowboard helmets. The most commonly used is the In-Mold method. In this process, the helmet shell made of polycarbonate is combined with polystyrene EPS foam, creating a hard inner shell.
Snowboard helmets intended for freeride, whether amateur or competitive, are made using Hardshell or ABS Super Strong technology. Helmets produced in this way have a shell reinforced with carbon weaves, their derivatives, or ABS plastic. Unlike the In-Mold technique, EPS foam is combined with the rest of the helmet at a separate production stage. For additional reinforcement and protection, a frame made of carbon fibers, Kevlar, or ABS material is embedded in the foam. Snowboard helmets made in this way weigh more but guarantee the highest level of protection. Advanced models from POC often utilize these robust construction methods to deliver superior safety on the slopes.
In our offer, you will also find helmets in which Double Micro Shell Superlight technology was used during production. These are helmets intended only for recreational riding because their lower weight involves lower protection. At Sportano, you will also find hybrid helmets combining several technologies in one model. Don't forget to pair your helmet with high-quality snowboard goggles for full protection.
Additional features
In addition to fit and reinforcement, the helmet should also have a certificate. The EN 1077:2007 marking informs that the helmet is safe for riding. The note CLASS B or CLASS A gives additional information about the protection level: the first marking says that the helmet protects the top and back of the head, and the second that it additionally covers the ears and sides of the skull. Each of the helmets available at Sportano has a special certificate visible on the internal label. Dakine offers accessories that complement your safety gear perfectly.
In a snowboard helmet, ventilation is also very important. The active version has built-in holes that can be closed on colder days. Models with passive ventilation constantly supply air – without the possibility of closing the holes. The last features you should pay attention to when buying a snowboard helmet are earmuffs and lining. Most helmet models available in our offer have the option of removing the liner to be able to wash it. Some helmets also have detachable earmuffs, which is very useful on warmer days. Ensure your comfort by choosing appropriate snowboard clothing to go with your gear.
