Why We Like The Glide MIPS Helmet

Really nice helmet
Helmet was a Christmas present for my grandson. He had a big smile on his face on Christmas morning when he opened it and tried it on. Fit was perfect and he loves the color, green slime. Gave 4 stars because he hasn’t worn it on the slopes yet but I’m sure it’ll get that 5th star next week when he wears it snowboarding.

Daughter says it’s comfortable, and
Daughter says it’s comfortable, and it seems to fit her head very well, which is the most important thing with helmets. We appreciate the additional protection afforded by MIPS. Very satisfied with both this Glide Jr. and her hard-sided Counter Jr. race helmet by Smith.

Kids say it’s super cozy
Just bought this helmet and all my boys tried it on and said this is the most comfortable helmet they’ve tried. Easy to adjust and the material inside is extra cozy. I bought a couple different helmets for them to try and all 3 chose this one after trying them all on.

Great Gift
This was a gift, my nephews loved their helmets and the fit was great. Getting them each their own favorite color was the best part (after brain protection of course).

Lots of technology built into this helmet making it a great value for protecting your little ones. It has a comfortable liner and a secure fit.

I wish this style/version came
I wish this style/version came in matte white and had adjustable vents. If so, I would definitely provide 5 star review. Love the comfort.
