Giro Recruit Youth Snowboard/Ski Helmet Review

Good coverage, light, long chinstrap

★★★★☆

4.0

"Size XS fits our 3 year old and size S fits our 8 year old (both have bigger than average heads for their age). But the chin strap is surprisingly hard to shorten enough.

The goggle strap indent/retaining strap works well.

Looks good, adds some warmth, okay without a hat down to 20F, maybe …" Read Full Review »

Great bang-for-the-buck helmet

★★★★☆

4.0

"I've been using Giro (bike & ski) helmets for years. The Recruit helmet has the quality I've come to expect from Giro. It's very well-designed & very comfortable. My kids love the great fit & style. It's not too bulky & works very well with Smith goggles. For the price, you won't find a better helme …" Read Full Review »

Giro Recruit Youth Snowboard/Ski Helmet Review

Great first helmet.

★★★★☆

4.0

"Our 6 year old started skiing last year and we got tired of renting a helmet for [$] a pop. This helmet fits him really well and he likes it, which means we can enjoy skiing without worrying. It looks very well constructed with the padding and the padded chin strap. The buckle is skin-clip proof …" Read Full Review »

Nice helmet, sizing needs to be exact

★★★★☆

4.0

"I purchased this for my 8 1/2 year old son in the size L. He is at the beginning of that sizing range, but this was just too big, especially the chin strap. Also, without the dial adjustment in the back (found on most new helmets now)we just couldn't get the fit right. If you're squarely in a siz …" Read Full Review »

Worthwhile Investment

★★★★★

5.0

"These helmets are a great value - cheaper than a 3-day rental. They are comfortable, warm, and worked well with goggles. However, they were difficult to adjust. This didn't seem to be a problem since it fit well for my kids without any adjusting. "
