Review on πŸ§— Enhanced Safety and Comfort with PETZL Meteor Climbing Helmet by Tim Harrington

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Riding dangerously high on head

I have ordered a size M/L helmet which is the largest available. I wear a 7 1/2 hat so my head is big but not huge. This helmet was snug but weirdly high on my head. I wouldn't believe this helmet would protect from front, rear or size impacts. I was able to lower the front end just enough to protect my forehead (i.e. remove the large gap between the helmet and my goggles), but the rear end felt awkward at that angle. I'm sure the helmet would slip back with every use. The parties were very open. Petzel sells it as a ski touring helmet. I would never believe it like that. I noticed that it had enough protection at the top, like a climbing helmet.

Pros
  • M/L
Cons
  • Not sure
