VIDEO REVIEW


OVERVIEW

The Monata Roca snowboard helmet comes in a pretty healthy price $39.99 so with this my initial worry was whether the low price meant low quality. I am happy to say that my thoughts on the Monata snowboard helmet were mostly positive. The helmet is lightweight and low profile which makes it comfortable to wear. Adding to the comfort is the fleece lining on the inside of the ski helmet and the removable padded ear warmers. There is a BOA style adjustment on the rear of the helmet and an adjustable chin strap to dial in the fit. The top of the helmet has eight vents to allow air to flow through the helmet.


THE FIT

The Monata snowboard helmet has a good fit mostly due to the adjustability of the helmet. The large size I tested is able to fit heads size 53cm-60cm in diameter. The dial fit system on the rear of the helmet resembles a BOA allowing you to tighten or loosen the helmet.


THE COMFORT

The helmet is comfortable with soft materials being used in areas that can become irritable. The soft ear pads and the padded chin straps are great examples of this.

THE VENTILATION

The Monata snowboard helmet has eight vents on the top of the helmet to allow air to circulate through the helmet.


GOGGLE COMPATABILITY

As demonstrated in the video above the Monata ski and snowboard helmet has a good fit with a range of ski goggles. Choosing a helmet that fits well with your goggles is important for comfort and ensuring a complete barrier from the elements.

Goggles fit well whether worn over or under the Monata helmet. There is a goggle clip on the rear to keep your goggles in place.


STYLE

This is always going to be somewhat of a personal opinion but I think that the Monata Roca snowboard helmet looks good. It has a low profile design so it doesn’t look clunky or oversized which to me is a win.
