Review on 🎿 Retrospec Powersports - H1 Ski & Snowboard Helmet for Enhanced Performance by Jimmy Garcia

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality, warms, makes you laugh.

On the advice of a motorcyclist friend, I ordered this winter bike helmet. I filmed for the first time today. It was 22 degrees and a headwind of 20 km/h was blowing. It kept my head nice and warm with my thin balaclava underneath. The quality seems pretty good for less than $40. The only really minor complaint is that it comes with a few extra foam pads and absolutely no instructions on how to use them or apply them. I've been playing around with them and figured out where they go as extra size adjusters. I ended up going for the one in front, but I can change it up if I wear it a few more times. Okay, one more minor complaint: After decorating my beautiful new helmet, my wife started laughing until she burst into tears and couldn't speak. I cannot repeat what she said as she finally calmed down enough to speak as it is not politically correct at all, but I will say that the words 'short bus' were used and that they came to me later that day sent an SMS with photos. Dark helmet from the movie Spaceballs. I mean it's a big stupid looking helmet. I really don't care because it's warm and protects my head.

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • Fading
