Hey All,

With Christmas coming up to us with some serious speed, I have been thinking about presents.... :roll:

I am treating myself to a Salomon Helmet in Lime Green for around £70 ( This is to me, from Santa ) but the problem comes when I am buying for my brother!

Anyone got any favourite Helmets? - Not that kind!! I know what your thinking!!!

He wants to borrow my pair of new snowblades but I am not too keen on him taking them and have decided to buy him a pair for Christmas. Personally I have the Salomon Crossmax 120 blades but was wondering if anyone has tried any others that are any good? If not I may have to get him the same ones as mine with the ski release binding as I don't think he would appreciate broken akles etc from the non-release ones.

Any help would be greatly received!!!

Cheers
See you on the piste!!!

Helmets are to the head what ski boots are to feet and need to be fitted. What works for one head shape doesn't work for the next. Also important that his goggles fit. You don't want gaps that freeze the forehead or make you mist up.

Suggest a trip to a shop on boxing day or 1st day of the sales, and give him a coupon or IOU on the day itself.
