The Giro 2008 G9 ski and snowboard helmet is a low profile helmet that includes TuneUps with Bluetooth LINK Technology. This technology lets you hard-line jack into your music player while connecting to your Bluetooth-enabled phone.

The G9 is an updated version of Giro's Nine.9. The G9 features updated clean lines, a hint of attitude, and an In Form fit system. The In Form fit system makes this lightweight, low profile helmet even more comfortable. The In Form fit system lets you dial in the fit for optimal comfort and performance.

To keep you comfortable, Giro has included 15 Super Cool vents that pull cool, fresh air into the helmet while radiating heat and stale air out. WeatherStrip vent plugs help you regulate your core temperature. Just snap a set in to the helmet for a tight seal against the chill, or remove them to let excess head radiate out.

Giro's most versatile helmets, the G9 has an In-mold shell and an EPS liner. A wide angle cut creates a gapless fit with goggles and doesn't compromise peripheral vision.

The In-mold construction fuses a tough polycarbonate outer shell with the helmet's impact-absorbing foam liner for extra durability without excess weight. The fusion of the shell and the liner also allows Giro to sculpt a better ventilation system, so In-mold helmets can be lighter and cooler.

Giro's In Form adjustable fit system includes a flexible head pad at the base of the helmet. It conforms to your head shape as adjustments are being made to provide a plush, custom fit. An ergo-friendly dial at the base of the helmet provides up to 6cm of fit/feel adjustment for enhanced comfort and stability. Height adjustment is achieved through pins located at the top of the In Form unit. This compensates for different head shapes.

Color is Matte Black.
