Atomic Backland CTD Helmet
Best lightweight protection for dedicated backcountry ski touring enthusiasts.
This is the ideal choice for skiers who prioritize a barely-there feel without sacrificing essential safety. The low-profile construction keeps things streamlined and lightweight, though you trade off some of the heavy-duty impact protection found in bulkier, more traditional designs.
