Petzl Ecrin Roc Climbing Helmet

Petzl Ecrin Roc Climbing Helmet description

Extremely comfortable, the Petzl Ecrin Roc adjusts to any head size by adjusting wheels on the side of the shell. This is a serious mountaineering helmet, suitable for aggressive activities.

Bottom Line: A great helmet for four-season climbers.

It fits pretty well. The fit could be a little more snug. To make it sit where it should be the strap has to be uncomfortably tight under the chin. I could imagine it sliding back / forth as a result of a serious hit. Maybe need to play with adjusting it a little more. So far it's saved my head from at least a few bumps but no serious falls. Hope not to test it too much.

I took this out to the gorge and wore it all day without a bother at all. Takes some adjustments to get the fit right and I wear a micro fleece headband... five or six hours go by no problem.

Really like this helmet! Climbing in Colorado can be hot with so much sun and this cap really stays comfortable. Highly recommend this helmet.

This is the best online store I have ever used. They were faster, cheaper and easier than anything else I have used.The helmet itself is great! Super easy to adjust when I was juggling beanies while climbing. It is great! Didnt know I had it on most of the time.

The Ecrin Roc is the first helmet I ever used, and it's never failed me. Not the lightest helmet out there, but I can hardly tell I'm wearing it for the most part. The fit ajustment is simple and tough, and it ventilates well too. I've used it on mid summer trad routes and some winter mountaineering and mixed climbing routes and it does the job. It's funny, I only smack my head on the rock when I'm wearing this thing. Helmet karma I guess. I highly recommend the Ecrin Roc for excellent noggin protection.
