    This is the most confortable helmet I have ever owned. After several seasons of ill fitting and just plain uncomfortable helmets I finally spent the money and bought a quality helmet, this one. It's super light, not bulky and very comfortable. My only complaint is that at first the headphones seemed very quiet. Then I discovered that the cord provided only really works one way, the control button needs to be on the end NOT plugged into the helmet, which seemes incorrect, you'd think that the control would be near the helmet instead of plugged into your music player...but oh well...once you reverse the cord the headphones sound great.

    My brother and I each bought these helmets, his in large and mine in medium. At the store, they felt like the most comfortable helmet and the audio was an added bonus. Today we took them out for our first ride and dear lord I think this helmet is giving me cauliflower ears. The headphones squeeze both my brother and my ears, extremely uncomfortable forcing us to remove the helmets on the lift or at the bottom. We removed the headphones and now the helmet is AWESOME!!! Fits my head great, the adjustability is perfect, it's warm, looks good, and keeps my noggin safe.

    I give the helmet 3/5 because of the painful headphones. I don't understand why no one else has experienced this and reviewed it negatively. Maybe it will break in over time and I can put the headphones back in. Ignoring the headphone problem, I rate this helmet 5/5.

    I would recommend buying the regular Rival Helmet without the audio, you will save money and be more comfortable.

            This Helmet is extremely comfortable and is very lightweight. It fits well on my head and my goggles fit around it well. In addition, the speakers were designed well and are good quality. It was hard for me to find an auxiliary cable with a mic and remote for me to control music and calls on my phone. But i discovered that a control talk aux cable works well. This allows me to pause, play, change songs, answer phone calls, and use voice control on my phone. i can push the button and say call nick, allowing me to talk through the mic on the cable and here the caller in the helmet. this makes things easier because i don't need to did through my jacket pocket with gloves to use my phone, and i don't have to worry about dropping my phone off the lift again. overall the helmet is great and with the right cable, the helmet is really helpful when it comes to music and calls.

                Comments about K2 Rival Pro Audio Helmet:

                Haven't had a chance to use it yet, but unpon first inspection it looks really good, its light and sturdy, the headphones won't blow you away but they sound good and seem to be at reasonable level (on high) to listen to all day. Maybe it was just my head but it seemed a little tight around the crown of my head, although after trying on a lot of others this seemed pretty normal across the board. The lining is super soft and warm... If I remember I will come back and update once I have used it a few days

                  I can't wait to test my new helmet in actual conditions, instead of just in the house. I can say however, that it is super comfortable, the audio is loud enough but governed for safety and it looks awesome. It is lightweight and the K2 dialed fit system works great and gives you a perfect fit. Great deal for the price.

                          Within the first three times I went up with this helmet, I tested the impact several times. My head has no dents or contusions, which is pretty amazing considering how hard I hit. Having audio while going down the slopes is awesome! The helmet is so light-weight, you barely even notice you're wearing it! The lining is extremely warm (actually had to take off my head sock on warmer days), but offers outstanding ventilation while moving. Adjustable liner offers a very comfortable and snug fit. I'd recommend this helmet to every skill level.

                                      The K2 Rival Pro is a great light weight helmet, you can hardly tell that you're wearing it. The fur lining in the keeps your head extremely warm, almsot too warm during the hotter days. The K2Dialed Fit system is realy simple, just turn the nob.The Level three Baseline audio system is pretty good. The only downside is that at the highest volume it still isn't very loud. The worst part about this helmet is the goggle clip, it's really hard to lift the clip up to put the goggles in or take them out. Despite these two minor drawbacks I would still say that this is a smart buy for the price
