About Giro
Working late nights in his garage, designer/bike racer Jim Gentes created the first lightweight adult cycling helmet in 1985. Friends at NASA helped tune the final helmet shape and vent placement, and the result was the Giro Prolight, a helmet that was better looking than traditional designs while offering a superior fit and still met the industry’s toughest safety standards. Plus, it was half the weight of traditional helmets. Since then, Giro has advanced its helmets, many of which have set the standards for styling, function, and innovation for progressive, performance-oriented riders on dirt, pavement, and snow. Giro helmets are worn by millions of riders, cyclists, skiers, and snowboarders around the world. Young-bloods and old-timers; hard-cores, heshers, and hipsters; rookies, experts, and a few regular Joes too–in fact, pretty much anyone that appreciates superior fit and function, cutting edge styling, and the very best ideas you get in a helmet.

I wasn’t sure I was going to be able to get my daughter to wear a helmet for skiing, but the Dora helmet was an instant hit. She wanted to put it on right away. The adjustments for size are easy to make and this helmet should last us for a couple of years. (Hopefully she doesn’t grow out of Dora first.) I have the Giro Richochet helmet for two of my kids and am pleased with them as they are adjustable for a snug fit. I also have a Boeri for my other son which seems very well made, but it is not adjustable.
