Functional, light, and good fit
Used for a climb up Mt. Ranier. Very comfortable, good fit, nicely adjustable when putting a hat underneath. Could use a few additional vents for airflow. There newer designed helmets are lighter and better vented but this continues to be a solid product for the price.

Very Cool and Comfortable
I own an Ecrin Roc and a BD half dome, and they are both hot and uncomfortable on warm sunny days. Seeking a more comfortable helmet, I recently purchased an Elios. I just used it climbing at Red Rocks in Nevada on 90 deg F days, and it was very cool and comfortable. I was really pleasantly surprised!

Horrible! Go back to the old design!
The helmet itself is great. The new forehead padding on the otherhand is unacceptable. The old Elios helmets had closed cell foam wrapped on the front bracket that was very comfortable and was waterproof. The new helmets have a velcro sction with a cheap foam pad stuck to it. When wearing the helmet, the pad shifts causing the bracket to dig into your head. I have chaffing from the plasic rubbing on my forehead. Not to mention since it is no longer closed cell, it holds water (and sweat) and at the slightest bit of pressure, you get a stream of liquid running into your eyes. Absolutely HORRIBLE. Come on Petzl.
