Okay, so most young women can attest to the fact that just simply being a tweenaged gal is perhaps one of the most difficult aspects of growing into your own skin--so it's no surprise that (per Mom's request) finding the right ski or snowboard helmet can feel really infuriating. However, the Bern Girls' Bandita EPS Thin Shell Helmet makes it easy for you with its ultralight weight technologies and snow-to-pavement-to-dirt versatility and capabilities. Bern designed the Bandita with a lightweight ABS Thin Shell and then added EPS, a one-time-use foam that evenly distributes force and gives its life to save yours in the event of a high-impact crash. Bern's Signature Shape allows the Bandita to be up to 35% lower profile than standard snow helmets, and the ergonomic fit means it fits around her head instead of perching on top of it. Bern also included a chic visor and removable ear pads, so the Bandita can be worn during the warmer months for skateboarding and other summer sports.

• Can also be used in the spring/summer by removing the snap in ear pads and rotating the top pad to open the vents.
• Available as a helmet with ABS shell and EPS hard foam. EPS hard foam meets ASTM F 2040 and EN 1077B standards for snow and ski, CPSC and EN 1078 standards for bike and skate.
• The visor helmet for the youth
• Certified to protect you whether youÕre on a bike or on the slopes
• Weight: 15.5
