Pros & Cons
Pros
The helmet is awesome it fits snug and looks great. Fit great and kept my noggin safe and warm. I also have the smith squad xl and they fit nice as well.
I'm a pretty experienced snowboarder and it has already saved me from a massive concussion. Can use it for skiing and snowboarding and biking. There are a few caveats- the goggle holder screw needs threadlocker on the bolt as i found thay it was falli... Read More
The ear muffs are nice to have at speed since they muffle wind noise. The adjustment dial is easy to use with gloves, ear pads are soft and cushy and they fit my disassembled head phone discs easily.
The key thing about this helmet is the adjustable ratcheting band. On heavy snow days the brim keeps the snow from saturating and fogging up my goggles. The dial-a-fit feature ensures a good fit with or without a beanie.
Still i think this is a great entry level option if you don't want to spend a ton of money. Highly recommended. Highly recommend this helmet.

Highlights
Quality
Well made, adjustable- really helps to get good fit.
Great helmet for boarding, i smacked my head a couple times and this helmet saved me from a possible concussion every time.
Used it for about 15 days last season and then when i pulled it out this season for the first day, the goggle strap was missing!
Buckle on the back broke up after using it a couple times
Price
I snowboard 40 days a year and it is comfortable, with great features, but also an excellent price point.
I will say great for the price i paid before providing criticism.
Felt that the price was a little steep at the time, so i ordered this helmet.
I bought a smith camber helmet $130 at a local shop.
Packaging/appearance
Came with emergency information sticker, which i loved.
The one i received is matte tank with black.
Competitiveness
It has a lot of features at this price point from a brand i trust with my safety from cycling.
This helmet did not fit as snug or comfy as the smith.
However, the physical dimensions of the helmet are larger than other brands of similar size.

Might not be as safe as the 34mips34 advertised helmets but should keep your head from splitting open or bruising your brain too badly
