Giro Nine MIPS Snow Helmet Review

The Giro Nine MIPS snow helmet is a solid all-round helmet with top-of-the-line safety features, but it isn’t a premium model. It’s available for between $90 and $120. If you’re in the market for a new snow helmet, you may want to consider another brand. Regardless of which one you choose, be sure to compare the features of each model.

The Giro Nine has been a favorite among skiers for years, and now it’s available with a new Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS). The Giro Nine is a lightweight and aerodynamic helmet that features a low-profile design with a streamlined silhouette. It also offers custom tuning for the In Form Fit System and Thermostat Control venting.

One of the great features of the Giro Nine is the fact that it works well with many types of ski goggles. The helmet’s ridge around the sides and back make it ideal for a wide variety of goggles. However, this model is best used with large-framed goggles, since smaller-framed ones may cause a gap between the goggles and the forehead.

In addition to its lightweight design, the Nine helmet is also extremely easy to use, meaning it won’t be uncomfortable even after a long day of skiing. It also fits well and looks good. The cent control is conveniently located for easy access, meaning that you won’t have to take the helmet off to use it.

The ventilation on the Giro Nine is adequate, but it’s a bit lacking. Because the cheek pads aren’t removable, the ventilation isn’t as effective. There are only a few vents under the front brim and one on the backside that allow heat and moisture to escape the helmet.
