    Helmet with PTT (Push To Talk) radio button?

    While watching this year's Warren Miller flick Higher Ground, one of the skiers used a helmet that had a large PTT button that looked like it was built into the helmet. Big enough to operate with mittens, and it was right over the ear. Any ideas on what brand or model it was?

    It was NOT one of Giro's Tuneups kits. (These showed up in searches)
    Tuneups (headphones with mute button)
    Tuneups II with Skullcandy (music & cellphone headset)
    Tuneups II Two-way with Skullcandy (music & two-way radio mike with in-line PTT)
    Good runs when you get them.

    I believe that's the K2 Blackhawk One helmet, probably on McConkey. Pricey, but actually pretty cool. It's also got a little mic that sticks out. A buddy and I checked it out, and it syncs up well with radios and cell phones... radio function was awesome for easy use on photo shoots.

    Thanks Mr. Pin.

    Looks like K2's blackhawk helmet , & a couple of other models can be retro-fitted with the A.C.S. system.

    Think I'll call a couple of places to see if they have one in stock, so I can see if it would be adaptable to Giro 9 lid.
    Good runs when you get them.
