Got my first set up at Peter Glenn in Orlando. Took it up with me to Minnesota and rode for years until moving back. That was 2010. Good to see you are doing well!
When I wear my helmet by itself it fits great, maybe 0.5cm space between the helmet and my forehead. Is this ok? Also, when I’m resting and I put my goggles on top of the helmet, the front part gets heavy and can fall down when I look down. Is this normal because of the extra weight the goggles added, or does it mean my helmet is too big?
Sounds like it might be too big, you want it as snug as possible without being uncomfortable. Check out this video for a better visual explanation-> How To Choose The Right Size Helmet th-cam.com/video/HonvVlqueB4/w-d-xo.html
@@snowboard_clips Haha, good suggestion. That one never mad any sense to me. Nothing says "comfort" like 2 pieces of plastic being shoved into the back of your head. 😆
I took my liner out of my helmet and replaced it with the same thickness beanie. My MIPS helmet also has the BOA to adjust the tightness to a perfect fit. Is that still fine?
I still wouldn’t recommend it. The liner is part of the helmet and designed to work with the helmet, especially the MIPS system since it is directly connected to the liner in a very specific way.

All is good, thanks! Hopefully you are still able to get to the mountains here and there each season!
@@PeterGlennSports keystone this year for 4 days in January with the family! Best wishes to the team!
Very helpful information for a beginner buying his first helmet. Thank you.
Glad it helped!
Skiing in below zero. Highly recommend a balaclava or thin beanie under helmet. Makes my day much more enjoyble.
100%

i feel like there's a product opportunity for snowboard helmet makers here.
A lot of the helmet companies (Anon, Smith, Oakley, etc) do make "under helmet" beanies and balaclavas.
@@PeterGlennSports i wear a balaclava pretty regularly, but I haven't seen the beanies yet.
@@jplpagan Check these ones out -> www.peterglenn.com/category/men%27s/hats?filters=im_vid_6:116
Next do goggle under helmet 😊

+1 for the thin balaclava. Plus gives you sun protection
For sure!!
