If you’ve ever looked into buying a new snowmobile helmet, you know the options can seem overwhelming. Full or open face? With electric heat shield or without? Whether you’re a seasoned rider or just new to the sport of snowmobiling, you want to choose the helmet that will best meet your needs while you’re out enjoying the trails.
Lightweight – Snowmobile helmets with a full carbon fiber shell are lightweight to provide all-day comfort for longer rides, yet remain durable for the ultimate in safety. A washable liner with air channels helps keep you cool as well.
Anti-Fogging – Full-face modular helmets either include, or have the option of adding, an electric face shield. Since it’s heated, this type of face shield offers the added benefit of anti-fogging properties and better visibility on the trails.
Ease of Use – Most premium snowmobile helmets feature a quick-release chin bar for added convenience when you’re out on the trails. Single-button, one-handed operation means easy release of the chin bar and electric face shield.
The importance of safety when choosing a helmet can’t be emphasized enough. While U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) standards refer specifically to motorcycle helmets, they also apply to snowmobile head gear. Be sure the helmet you choose meets or exceeds DOT criterion, as do helmets available from Up North Sports.
