  • In-Mold

    In-Mold

    In-Mold is the premium construction for ultra-lightweight performance helmets and is characterized by an EPS liner that is bonded to a lightweight poly-carbonate (PC) shell utilizing a distinct molding process. Unlike Hard-Shell construction, the lightweight EPS inner layer of the helmet is fused directly to the thin PC shell during molding. The result is a super light and protective envelope with minimal weight.
  • Passive-Channel Venting™

    Passive-Channel Venting™

    Channels on the inside surface of the EPS direct air-flow between your head and the helmet, removing moisture and excess heat; keeping you dry and comfortable all day long. Available on all K2 helmets.
  • K2dialed Fit System

    K2dialed Fit System

This allows for the ultimate convenience of being able to make fit adjustments on the fly. The end result of the K2dialed Fit System is customized helmet fit just for you. Available on Diversion, Virtue, Rival BC, Rival Pro, Rival, Ally Pro, Ally, Phase Pro, Phase, Illusion, Shadow and Clutch Rental.

              The Baseline Audio System is the best out there. Excellent sound and having the ability to mute the tunes when talking to someone without having to dig your player out of your pocket is priceless. The only downfall is that you will tend to sing along. My wife and kids will no longer ride the lift with me. Wah

                Comments about K2 Skis Rival Pro:

                I use the helmet in the park and is great compared to others i have used before.

                There does appear to be a fault with the headphone jack though, both mine and my friend (same helemt) after two weeks riding found the headphone jack started to fail and we would only get music in one ear, they eventually both ears, this is the same for both of us so not just a random one off.

                We have fixed them now but soldering on new headphone jacks, but u dont really expect to have to do that when your spending so much.
