The most durable foam helmet in the Black Diamond line-up,
the Vision helmet features a fusion of EPP foam, an EPS foam puck, and a ABS shell, which keeps the dings and dents at bay, while remaining incredibly lightweight at just 215 grams. Improved side and back coverage add a new level of protection that meets proposed UIAA requirements, while the strategically placed ventilation ports keep the air flowing when temps are high. The suspension system and chin strap keep the Vision sleek, and the integrated headlamp clips are low-profile so they don't snag on over-the-shoulder slings and allow you to easily light the way on sends that push past the daylight hours.

Helmet overview
"I find the helmet to be very comfortable while wearing it for a long duration of time. My only wish is that it was easier to adjust the sizing while it was on my head. Besides that, it is a fantastic product and has been great whenever I had to use it."
— Max W. (4/5)

Vision Helmet
"Quality helmet. Definitely runs small. Would recommend trying on before buying"
— JUSTIN R. (5/5)
nice looking headwear
"its a nice piece of headwear. Ive always used the vapor, the lightest one, this one feels significantly more sturdy but just about as comfortable."
— Erin M. (5/5)
Fit is loose and wobbles
"Not a huge ban of this helmet - ventilation isn't great and the fit feels loose on the head. Hard to micro adjust with gloves on when I need a slightly tighter/looser fit. Wouldn't recommend, there's better helmets out there for the price."
— Noah F. (2/5)

— James A. (5/5)

Nice helmet but runs small
"Bought the same size as my old BD helmet and could barely fit it on my head. Significantly smaller -- might want to try this exact model on at a store before purchasing."
— Brittany Z. (4/5)
