very light, smallest-profile helmet i could find, way better looking than the BIG "snowboard" ones i've tried. air vents with option to "plug them up" when it gets chilly, the goggle strap clip on the back is crucial (theres a button on the top that clicks in place, the bottom is perm. attached), looks like it was made to fit with my Smith X/O goggles (no gaps). Spy Targa II's are a little big for this helmet, though so beware if you have those. bottom line: got to protect the noggin.yeah, i also thought marker only made bindings... but this looks solidly built.
