      Comments about K2 Skis Diversion:

      The Diversion Helmet is the ultimate step up for someone looking to upgrade a standard or entry-level helmet, or for someone who has been boarding for a while and interested in moving to more aggressive park play.

      I've been boarding for 10 Years without a helmet, but as I've been getting more and more into jumps,rails,and pipes I figured it was time for a helmet.

      Not only does the diversion fit great, it's extremely comfortable, doesn't roam on your head, and holds goggles firmly in place without squeezing them against your face or cutting of peripheral vision (a problem I had trying on Standard priced helmets.

      The included speakers are nice, but they are far from impressive if you are an Audiophile. Personally, I like them because they are strong enough to produce noticeable bass and clear tone separation, but far enough from the ear and semi-muffled so you can still hear other skiiers/snowboarders in your direct vicinity.

      Hardest part about the Diversion is the price, it was a tough investment considering I've been fine without one for so long. However, the added confidence going into a trick knowing my head is safe helps me pull of some even crazier moves than I did before, and that alone is well worth the price of admission.

        Great fitting stylish and the first helment I would buy.I have not used it yet,No Snow, the venting looks great. The fit and adjustablity is great. The audio part is what drew me to it. That is the con part. Not the correct cord with mic. Ordered twice got the same thing.The sound with an IPone 4 hook to it got me very low volume.
