Description of Petzl Elios Climbing Helmet:
|
The Petzl Elios Helmet provides an excellent combination of lightweight and durability for all types of climbing. The polycarbonate shell and impact-absorbing form liner make this a great choice when you need a helmet that lasts but don't want to feel like you strapped a brick to your head. This well-ventilated helmet has clips for a headlamp and can be used for everything from sport to alpine climbing. Adjust the Elios to fit over a stocking hat with a single wheel in the back.
|
|
Bottom Line: The lightweight, low-profile design of the Petzl Elios Helmet makes it comfortable and easy to wear on the rock and in the mountains.

| Great Fit 08-02-08 |

| I have had this helmet for years and have had no complaints about it. Easy adjustment even while wearing it. Headlamp clips hold up well and it seems to be very durable overall. I wear mine w/ and w/o a hat and never have problems with fit. One of the best helmets out there. |

| Great sturdy helmet 10-08-08 |
| Stephen Koch (42): |
| I have used the Elios helmet for several years. I take this helmet on expeditions and while guiding because it can handle being packed less delicately than the Meteor III. Plus all the color options are pretty cool as well. Either way, I always try and pack my helmet inside my pack, as the last thing before the lid goes over or inside the main compartment, with my lunch/food inside so the helmet can protect it. Great all around helmet that can last several seasons of hard climbing. If you want the super bomber helmet that you can drop, sit on, headbutt into the wall, then go with the Petzl Ecrin Roc. For weight savings on those big alpine routes, I suggest the Petzl Meteor III - just be more careful with it and definitely don't sit on it! |

| Great helmet for kids 05-16-08 |

| Both my 5 year old and 2 year old have one. The fit is great and they love the orange color, makes it easy to keep an eye on them too. The chin strap could be a bit easier to use for the little guys, but all in all a great helmet. The smaller size fits most adult heads too with much less overhang to get caught up on packs. |
