Use as an everyday helmet??

Absolutely. It has the added bonus of giving added coverage from rain if that is a concern where you live. I was very happy when I first got this helmet and I have only come to like it more with time.

I haven't worn my other Giro helmet since I got this one for $119. I wore it today in 32 degrees with a thin skull cap. Was awesome. I think it is a great lightweight helmet. The looks are not for everyone. The shield is not for everyone, and I wear my sunglasses sometimes instead of the shield. I tend to wear the shield when it is getting dark soon because it's easy to snap back on upside down and have it out of the way.

Yes I use this for all my rides, minus mountain biking. Light weight, great with the shield, feels better than previous helmets!

Use as a everyday helmet with sunglasses and no shield and with shield on races or just when I want to show off � seriously...you can use it as an everyday helmet. ..Best helmet I ever had !!

I would say no. It's very large, and not really designed for staying in place while doing lots of physical activity. It's comparable in size and function to a welding helmet.

Yes i'm 27 and I wear it all the time. I modified it to be a NFL inspired helmet that i wear to games and various events. There's foam head support along with support along the eyes on the inside.

It's a hunk of iron. You could use to fashion helmets for a trip to Hades. (;>) yes, I think it would be fine for that.

Much more likely you will get headaches if you don't! I find the helmet is comfortable, with great noise and face protection - I can wear it for hours without any problem.

....maybe? The foam inside this helmet is soft and spongy so it might absorb water. If it were me I'd try the ProTec helmet that has a hardened foam interior instead.

probably not... as I understand it, the helmet is to be quite form fitting to be effective & purposeful. That is how mine is I mean. The head phones do sit of my skull about a 1/2" - 1" but stay in place because of how the ear pieces are designed. I guess someone with a larger head might feel these are tight??? I just think they'd be uncomfortable under a helmet. Also, I would not want to loose that much hearing from using the headphones while riding. These are pretty powerful. Strong & sound great. But I would use some judgement on making sure I can still hear in most circumstances. I guess I'd say one would have to try them on....

Just go buy some strong velcro. I got some at Home Depot. The helmet clips don't work well and are prone to break. I've been using the velcro for 2 years now and it's still working great.

It could definitely be used for skiing both with the head strap/helmet mount or the chesty mount as done by most of the team athletes. If you go any lower where it will be constantly exposed to the snow like on a ski or the side of a boot, you would want to keep it dry so the waterproof housing would be a better choice. Depends ultimately on whether or not it will be getting wet.

i would say absolutely not. this is a kids helmet. i bought for my wife and returned it because way to small. it would be nice if it said "kids" in the actual product name. i bought because seemed like a great deal. I would recommend a Giro ski helmet which is what both my wife and I ended up getting from amazon at a reasonable price.

It's an adult helmet. I would think that it would be too big. Although it is adjustible.

Yes, you could wear these under a helmet. Decent sound, easy to set up, easy to operate once you get the buttons down.

Don't get the helmet. It is just too damn big. I still use it. I feel safe with it. I am too cheap to splurge on a new one yet but it is dorky bigggggg. i am not sure about the size and I am too lazy right now to check for you. Good luck. If you do get it, it is a decent helmet.

Haven't tried it, but it's not likely. It covers your whole forehead, and wraps around clear back to your ears. It would conflict with the helmet across the whole front half of your head.

Yes. The advantage is if you fall and knock your head, you can still use the helmet for protection. A lot of helmets are rated for "single blow".

It might be a bit heavy, not terribly, but maybe not comfortable for longer periods of time. If I were to do this, I'd be inclined to pierce holes in the end and attach a ribbon to securely tie it to my head. It also may be a bit larger/bulkier than you'd like. I don't think it would work well for a more traditional, accurate look, but maybe a more casual/comical look.

I think you might be better off with an actual snowboarding helmet. This helmet has some padding, but not a lot. It also doesn't come down as low in the back and sides as a normal snowboarding helmet.
