definitely my favorite helmet   01-21-08
Ingrid Backstrom (6): rating
This helmet is so great, good for people who haven't yet worn a helmet and want to start, or anyone looking for an effortless helmet. I barely even notice I have a helmet on anymore! It fits perfect, is light, and has wire mesh vents so you stay cool on shorter hikes, but still don't collect melting snow in your hair on storm days.

Perfect for Someone Who Doesn't Want to Wear a Helmet   03-07-08
rscott5 (1): rating
For the 8 years I've been snowboarding I kept putting off buying a helmet for two reasons: it would ruin my style, and I didn't want to spend the money on it. Well finally I was talked into buying one for a snowboarding trip to Canada, so I did some research and settled on the Encore2 and I couldn't be any happier. I'm still getting used to having a strap under my chin but other than that the helmet is wicked comfortable and warmer than wearing a hat. Also, the helmet has so many vents that my head can stay comfortably warm and I don't have to worry about sweating or anything. On top of all that, I think its a pretty sweet looking helmet. I'd recommend it for anyone looking for a first helmet or for someone looking for a new helmet that will be functional and stylish without spending a lot. The one con I have about the helmet is that I got it in black and it seems to scratch and pick up paint from other things really easily so after a month of regular use its got a bunch of multi-colored marks on it. But then again, who cares, its a helmet!

GREAT FIRST HELMET   02-29-08
hugewon (2): rating
What a great choice. It vents well on warm days, but a thin liner hat on cold days will give you all the warmth you need. The removable ear pieces also add warmth and comfort. I thought it would be odd wearing a helmet, but I barely knew it was there. A great helmet for the price.

Really Great!   10-05-08
Skantze (13): rating
This is the greatest helmet I've ever worn. I measured my head before I ordered and It fits perfectly! It is really comfortable and I love the look of the Matte Chalk, which is the one I have. It is so pure and simpel design, really good shape and It fits perfectly with all 4 goggles I own! Its unbelivable :D Really a great helmet by Giro! ;-)

Well, the other reviews pretty much sum it up. A great helmet that is stylish, durable, light weight, comfortable, warm yet plenty of vents to keep you cool, not to mention a great price. I am very happy with this purchase.

my 1st helm   03-31-08
jeffbru2148830 (1): rating
Finally broke down & bought helmet. Great venting. Good comfort. Light. Takes a beating from tree limbs splendidly, much better than rest of gear. Sound of ice covered branches busting off hard plastic is a bit deafening. BRIGHT ORANGE COLOR IS UNCOMMON AND WILL DEFINITELY GET YOU NOTICED BY SKI PATROL WHEN POACHING UNOPENED/OUT OF BOUNDS TERRAIN.
