Weight
The total weight of the ski helmet.
A helmet should be as light as possible to minimize wearing discomfort. However, in the case of a plastic shell (and most models are made of plastic), weight reduction leads to a decrease in strength and reliability. This can be corrected by the use of high-end materials such as carbon, but they affect the price of the entire product accordingly. Therefore, specifically looking for the lightest helmet is justified only if you plan to ride in simple and safe conditions; in "extreme" riding, it is worth proceeding primarily from the fact that protection is more important than lightness.
