Prior to the end of the season, I want to take the plunge and join the ranks of helmet wearers. I know that it really is stupid to not wear one. This said, I know nothing about them. Obviously I'd never purchase a helmet without trying one on first.
I'm just curious about people's opinions on helmets.
What brand(s) are the most reputable?
A big concern of mine is that the helmet affects my hearing as little as possible. I had a pretty severe accident while young, ever since this incident, being able to hear skiers around me is very important. Are some better designed for this than others?
What is a 'good' price for a helmet from said brand?
Do you know of any online sites that offer great prices to order from once I find one that fits properly?
