"Snowboarding Helmet"

The helmet it great. I had to go to the manufacturers website to get a size chart (I think Amazon needs to include those!). The helmet fit great, its snug and warm on the slopes. Came in handy while I was learning to snowboard. 5 stars

"short strap"

I just got this helmet last week, so far no major complaints keeps me warm, the the 2 things I have to say is that I had to do some research to find my size, and also that the strap is a bit short. I purchased the medium and my head is between a medium and a large, I didnt want something to loose, but the strap is a bit short and I am concerned that the latch may come off. But overall its pretty good, and I just ordered the audio tuneups for it. 4 stars

"Great Helmet!"

Great helmet for a low low price! It's already helped me from hitting my head once! No need for a helmet liner it's plenty warm but cool enough for warmer days! Great helmet for all mountain or hitting up the park! A+++ 5 stars

"Extremely comfortable helmet."

I tried multiple helmets at a Sports Authority store and found it (Encore 2) the most comfortable one. It is even better than many $150+ helmets from Soloman, K2 etc. For a frequent skier like me (on the mountain every weekend), I need a helmet that I can wear very often and for long hours each time. And this is the one. (Note: Be sure to get Encore "2" as it improves a lot from the original Encore series). Last but not least, the design on this one (Risto Matteilla Signature)is cool. Anyway, no complaint on this product or Amazon's service (delivered in 2 days with free shipping) whatsoever.

"Great Helmet"

Helmet is extremely comfortable and light, only negative thing about the helmet is the paint scuffs very easily. 4 stars
