Smith Method
A lightweight and durable ski helmet with optimal ventilation and energy-absorbing protection for maximum comfort.
The Smith Method helmet is the ideal companion for anyone who loves skiing, freeskiing, or snowboarding. With its lightweight in-mold construction, which seamlessly integrates the outer shell with the EPS foam, it offers a durable yet lightweight protective solution. Zonal KOROYD® technology provides effective, energy-absorbing impact protection, while the eight fixed vents ensure continuous ventilation.
This helmet has been specially designed to integrate seamlessly with Smith products, ensuring maximum comfort and optimal ventilation. Thanks to the AirEvac system, your ski goggles stay fog-free, which is especially beneficial in changing weather conditions. The self-adjusting “Lifestyle Fit” system and the “Round Contour Fit” ensure that the helmet adapts perfectly to the shape of your head and offers a high level of comfort.
For added comfort and functionality, the Snapfit SL2 ear pads are removable and compatible with audio chips, so you can enjoy your favorite music even while riding. The removable attachment for the goggle strap allows for a streamlined helmet shell when goggles are worn under the helmet. The Method helmet is also compatible with a beanie, making it a versatile companion for all winter activities.
