Default What to look for in a helmet

How can I know a helmet is safe & comfortable, trying them on at a
shop?


Yes yes yes. The only place to find a correctly fitting helmet because you
can try them all and find one that you will have on your head all day.

I do only riding with my snowboard - mostly down the piste but
occasionally off-piste... looking to get a race board with hard
bindings next, I think.


I noticed this season (in Austria, Fiss / Serfauss) that I saw a lot more
helmets than before. A good thing if you ask me.
