Helmets for Skinny Head

[North]

<p>
Who makes ski helmets for skinny oval heads? My Smith Vantage is due for replacement and there are big gaps between the helmet and sides of my head anyway. I&#39;m rocking a real rectangle head. I tried on every helmet in the store when I was shopping for a new moto lid and very few fit well. Ended up with a 6D ATR2.&nbsp;</p>

The atomic I have is pretty oval, I can wear a smith since they are too round.

I went through this last year. Tried on a tonne of helmets. Ended up with a Giro Tenet. It was the most oval of any helmet I tried; specifically, it seemed to be slightly longer than other Giros so I am just able to squeeze into a small, which is an absolute necessity for me.

ETA: if you ever end up looking at bike helmets, try on Specialized. Have been wearing them for three decades, have tried a lot of others that are supposed to fit oval heads, including trying on a bunch of road helmets a couple years ago, and Specialized are just more oval than the others. Giro and one POC were close, same width but they were just a touch to short for me to squeeze into a small.

Scott works for me

I'm in a Giro Range with a very pointy head, on my second one now. Conform Fit actually changes the width of the shell, it's the best fitting helmet I've owned.

Huh. The Range didn&#39;t work for me when I tried it on. I am not certain, but it could be that the shell was too short for me to fit in a small.

Sounds like I should try Giro. Good info on Specialized MTB. TLD A1 works great for me, and POC fits as well. No go on the newer TLDs.
