    Smith Vantage Ski Helmet: Coming Fall 2010

    Jason MitchellBy Jason MitchellJanuary 28, 20101 Comment1 Min Read

    At Outdoor Retailer, I made my usual stop to visit with Chopper at Smith. While it’s typically a new pair of shades or goggles, this year it was a killer new ski helmet–the Smith Vantage. Taking some of the construction cues from the Smith Maze helmet, the Vantage is just a hair heavier than the Maze (by a mere 3.5 oz) and way more versatile than the Maze, but it comes at a price.

    Features of the Smith Vantage Helmet:

    • Dual-zone ventilation allows front and back vents to open/close independently
    • Zip-in audio system reduces production and SKU overhead (same helmet can be non-audio, wired or bluetooth)
    • Skullcandy audio
    • Xstatic liner with adjustable fit
    • Weight: 15 oz
    • MSRP: $180 (non-audio) / $210 (wired) / $340 (bluetooth)

    I really like the Maze for its simplicity and light weight, but I’d gladly add 3.5 oz to my head to get dual-zone vents and a flexible audio option. Looks like a great new lid for the masses come Fall 2010.

    A native of the Pacific Northwest, Jason quickly developed a love for the outdoors and a thing for mountains. That infatuation continues as he founded this site in 1999 -- sharing his love of road biking, mountain biking, trail running and skiing. That passion is channeled into every article or gear review he writes. Utah's Wasatch Mountains are his playground.
