Petzl Elios Helmet



The Elios Helmet
I bought the helmet to go wild caving in. It obviously performed its job. No bumps or cuts on my head as opposed to one of my arms that came out quite bloody. The main reason I bought this particular helmet was the ease in which one could mount those strap-mounted head lights to. In fact, I was able to get mount two sets through with the built-in clips. I will now modify it by drilling some holes through the top to mount another set of lights for future caving. The chin straps kept the helmet on very tightly and was adjustable from a wheel in the back. Due to these features, I highly recommend it for caving, repelling, etc.


Light and comfortable
This helmet takes the comfort and adjustability of the classic Ecrin Roc and leaves the weight behind. It easily adjusts with one hand and doesn’t move around on your head on once adjusted. It’s plenty light for sport and alpine climbing, and the headlamp clips are very easy to use.


Lightweight & Comfortable
For the price, this helmet is a great value. I have used it for rock climbing and in alpine climbing situations - it is very lightweight and won't weigh down the pack! It is easy & quick to adjust, even with only one hand available.


Comfortable and Affordable
This is a great buy for a beginner or advanced climber. For the beginner, it proves to be one of the more affordable climbing helmets. For the advanced climber, it proves to be very lightweight. On top of that, it's also a versatile lightweight durable helmet -- it does it job well!


Good lil helmet
The size 1 helmet fits well (my head is 21 in. and my boyfriend's in 22 in.), but it looks like it is too small. I know I shouldn't be so trivial when it comes to protection but it is borderline funny looking. On the subject of durability, I have not taken any crashes with it yet so I cannot speak to that. Bottom line, it feels good on and I feel safer using it.
