I'd be making sure the visor is easily replaceable and the costs involved for different tints.

I see the point re: MUSIC.

I dont believe for min i am irresponsible in having tunes on, i certainly don't have them on all the time.
My helmet kit comes with a mute switch which i clip on my jacket and its almost worn out. When i find my self in a position where i find the music is either distracting and limiting my ability i turn it off. As with TH most of the time it is only banging when on uncrowded pistes or on lifts (when I'm alone). The rest of the time its on very low.

I personally find i treat it bit like i do when driving. On the motorway, clear and at speed my tunes are blasting. Battling traffic on crowded roads that require concentration it basically goes off.


With regard to pole dragging. Yup, i do that, always have. I know i do it but never really thought about why. Guess it makes sense.

I guess the helmet is something you will just get used to over time. I don't find it effects my senses so much at all, but then i do have audio in mine so tend to have tunes on anyway unless i am with others.
Maybe you could try taking out the ear pads if its not too cold.

I have seen the go pro apps, I'm not sure i would get on too well with it when skiing other than assuring yourself it was actually recording. Unless you get decent, special gloves, you can use ur phone without taking your gloves off which is a a pain. I tend to just set mine off and leave if, i worry about it in the edit.

Last week i hardly used my GoPro, maybe its lost its mojo with me, or maybe i just couldn't be arsed as i had other stuff to do......will try again to get inspired in march.

Someone must have pulled some strings!
Or fiddled the entries...
