Product Description


When you need a helmet to get the job done, it's easy to turn to Giro. These helmets are constructed with comfort and durability in mind. The Nine:9 helmet for adults is light and very cool with lots of comfort! Great riders like Gretchen Bleiler, and Sarah Burke have all chosen to rock this certified helmet. The sizing on this helmet is great because it is built with a special Super Fit system. Super Fit is a unique blend of science and art, allowing a helmet to fit up to 98% of the human population while also being scaled by size to match the proportions of the human body. So, in sum, the Nine:9 helmet will fit you almost perfectly! The construction of this Giro helmet includes and in-mold shell and EPS liner for comfort, safety and warmth. In-mold construction fuses a tough polycarbonate outer shell with the helmet's impact-absorbing foam liner for extra durability without adding on any weight. With the usage of the EPS liner, you will get the most consistent performance across a wide range of conditions. With the Nine:9 helmet, you also get optional audio configurations. Jam out to your favorite tunes with the help of the TuneUps Wireless, TuneUps II or TuneUps configurations.

Comments about Giro Nine:9 Helmet:

I like the the look and the weight of the helmet but the there is two little bumps on the top side of the helmet where some padding is velcroed that makes it feel little uncomfortable. It puts somewhat of a pressure point on top of my head.

Helmet was a bit tight and not much to adjust there. Also, it has pink lining ( men's!), so my husband was not very happy about that. Should have returned.

      Comments about Giro Nine:9 Helmet:

      The helmet looks and works great. I ordered it online and used the company's suggested sizing chart. My head sized about 1/2" under the maximum for the size range, so I ordered the appropriate size. The helmet fits me, but only just barely as it is snug at the top of my forehead. This helmet design is a few years old and does not have an adjustable head thing like the newer models. Just be careful what size you order! Otherwise, I love the helmet! The snugness did not seem to bother me on the slopes!

      Mediocre design

      Pros

      Best Uses

      • Snowboarding

      Comments about Giro Nine:9 Helmet:

      Design is mediocre. Main problem is size, better order at least 1 size up from what you expect. Ear flap is a bit small which expose the ear lobes to the cold. Overall, cannot really recommend this helmet.

      Service and delivery comments:

      Took about 2 weeks to get to me, but shipping is free.
