Are the carbon-lite helmets worth the big MONEY!!!

well the lighter the helmet the better cause of less stress on your neck from floppin around.
but then again. how much weight is it compared to other helmets at half the price....
 
You dont always have to go with carbon.. my new fly helment is part carbon and part kevlar.. and is lighter than most all carbon helments.. and it was only $300
 
you guys got a name or a link for these carbon kevlar helmets

I am in the process of trying to research the helmet thing cause I think the snomo helmet is way to heavy for my kind of ridin

I was lookin at sno board and down hill ski helmets as well as rock climbing helmets mabey even like a kayak hemet

I live in a small center and I dont have access to all these helmets so I cant try them on and sort of test/mod them to see if they will work for me

Something like the first guy to pioneer the sledding boot now there are lots of different kinds to choose from

just a natural evolution
 
I would not recomend using anything but a DOT approved helmet. This is your brain you are trying to protect. Injure it and you are done!

Ski helmets will not do the job.

The only advantage to Carbon helmets is the are lighter... If you got the cash hey why not.

I have been using my motocross helmets for Skiing, Downhill mountain biking and Snowmobiling for a couple of years since I destroyed an approved full face bicycle helmet while downhilling. Doctors could not believe I survived. my neck never gets tired, My head definatley is hot in the summer but perfect in the winter.
 
I think what you really want to look for is "SNELL Approved". Isn't this the highest rating for a helmet?
