Scott Couloir Tour Helmet

While the Couloir is specifically optimized for backcountry touring with its lightweight construction and passive venting, it is fully certified for skiing and snowboarding. It works perfectly at the resort, though you may find it cooler on very frigid lift rides compared to a fully insulated resort-specific helmet.

The helmet is designed with a lower profile and a specific interior shape that accommodates a beanie without creating pressure points. The Halo 270 fit system is adjustable enough to secure the helmet comfortably whether you are wearing a thin liner or a thicker knit hat underneath.

No, the Couloir is not audio-compatible. It is built with a minimalist, lightweight design in mind, prioritizing weight reduction and ventilation over integrated electronics.

The Couloir weighs 349 grams. This makes it exceptionally light, which is a significant advantage during long, high-output climbs where reducing weight on your head helps prevent fatigue.

Passive venting means the helmet has fixed air channels designed to pull heat away from your head while you are moving. It does not have adjustable sliders, so it relies on your movement to circulate air, which is highly effective during active touring but less adjustable on the fly.

Not at all. Scott utilizes recycled materials like EPS and polycarbonate in a way that meets the same rigorous safety standards as their traditional helmets. The construction is engineered to ensure durability and protection without sacrificing structural integrity.
