Bombshell durability. Check. MIPS® multi-directional impact protection. Check. The Smith Scout ski and snowboard helmet blends everyday hardshell durability with the latest impact-absorbing tech so you can dial in your bag of tricks in the park or anywhere on the hill. Because no two people are the same, its lifestyle fit adapts to your head. Pull the ear pads come spring, or add a beanie on the coldest storm days. No matter the weather, eight fixed vents keep the air flowing for fog-free goggles and climate controlled comfort. All-season certification means you can wear it in the skate park and on your bike, too.

When there's something i like

Originally posted at www.smithoptics.com on Aug 31, 2024
When there's something i like and that works well for me? I stick with it thoroughly. I've been riding Smith goggles since winter season of '98 - '99 and never once waivered to try another brand... it's always been Smith. Bluebird days, night riding, through white out conditions & coaching at different mountains around the world, Smith has been one of the few tried & true brands I've been using time and again. I now ride The I/O & Scout helmet (on days when it's deep or dumping the helmet lip keeps snow from getting in above the frame and collecting, then melting into the inside of the lens), 4D Mag & Code helmet on bluebird days or night riding. And of course various lenses. Smith for life.

People love Curated Experts

This was the best decision Ive made in a while
5 /5
Every year at Christmas I try to get my daughter a snowboarding starter kit and its always so hard. The people in sotres kinda treat you like tgeyre better than you if youre looling for a reasonable deal. There's never what you actually want available. Nicholas was super helpful. I told him what I needed and he picked out all the perfect gear for my duaghter. Im so glad I woke up this morning, googled snowboarding starter kits, and Curated was tye first thing that came up in my search. Thanks, Nick. You just made my duaghters Christmas. And you found me a reasonable deal without sacrificing quality and and the little things that made this set special for my diaghter.

I had a great experience. Logan took all the guesswork out of this purchase, explained each spec so I could make the best purchase for my level and progression, and even sourced some extra options to make sure I was 100% happy. 10 out of 10! I won’t make a purchase like this any other way in the future.

Michael was amazing! As someone who knew little about ski gear, he helped me curate a personalized setup and found the best deals for me. He was incredibly honest, clearly had my best interests in mind, and patiently answered all my questions. Thanks to his help, I felt truly confident in my purchase and now have a much better understanding of my gear, which I know will enhance my ski experience. I couldn’t be more grateful for his guidance—I’ll definitely reach out to him again for advice as I expand my gear!

5 /5
Not sure what I was expecting going into this but I got Spencer as my expert and he was able to answer every single question about gear that I had. Super knowledgeable and helped me figure out exactly what would be a good fit for me. I would highly recommend Spencer to anyone looking at getting any sort of snowboard gear, he even made me a 15 minute video explaining all of his curated choices and why he chose them. Absolutely wonderful experience!
