Black Diamond Vector Climbing Helmet

Ideal for long routes, alpine climbs and other weight-sensitive exploits, the Black Diamond Vector helmet offers lightweight protection, superb ventilation and a great fit. Different densities of expanded polystyrene foam and a tough polycarbonate shell protect your head from impacts. Large ventilation ports provide excellent airflow to help your head stay cool on hot days. Ratchet adjuster with molded push buttons helps you fine-tune the fit. Straps and ratchet adjuster tuck inside the helmet for compact storage in your backpack. Small/Medium-size helmet weighs only 230g (8.1 oz.), making the Black Diamond Vector 1 of the lightest helmets available. Clips on the outside of the helmet hold your headlamp (sold separately) in place when the sun goes down.

Best helmet so far... by far!

This is my third helmet and my favorite by a long shot. To start off, it's the only helmet that fits my head properly. I had a Petzl and Wild Country and they would slide around my head regardless of how I adjusted it. This just stays put once you put it on, period. It's incredibly lightweight and very comfortable. It breathes well, it doesn't impede vision when looking up and has nice solid headlamp clips. Be aware that it's not a hard plastic helmet. If a rock falls on it it will most likely damage the helmet and it will need to be retired. With that said I've bonked my head a few time with it while climbing in tight spots and it hasn't dinged it yet. I wouldn't mind if it was a little more low profile... Black Diamond does make a helmet that is even lighter and more low profile, but I decided to go with the Vector and I'm very happy I did!

My head is very important to me so I don't skimp in the protection department and this helmet definitely does its job. Super light weight and breathable and one of the most comfortable helmets I have worn, yet I feel super safe and it appears to have a great impact zone on the crown area in the event of falling rocks. Granted I have not had to use that function but I would be confident that I would make it out just fine. I have had others wear it as well and it is super adjustable as I have never had a problem getting to fit anybo
