Ski and Snowboard Helmets

EN1077B is a European safety certification for snow helmets used in skiing and snowboarding. The “Class B” rating means the helmet covers the top and sides of the head while allowing for better ventilation and hearing—making it a popular choice for recreational riders. It still offers solid impact protection where you need it most, and any Bern helmet with this certification is approved for resort and general snow use.

ASTM F2040 is a U.S. safety certification specifically for snow sports helmets. It means the helmet meets rigorous standards for protecting your head while skiing or snowboarding, including impact resistance, cold-weather durability, and secure strap retention. If a Bern helmet is labeled with ASTM F2040, you can trust it’s built to handle the demands of the mountain.

If you see 'Drop-In Audio Compatible' in a product page, then yes. Majority of our helmets' winter knits that come pre-installed in our winter helmets have an openable pocket on the exterior of the ear cup to hold your bluetooth helmet speakers. If you're looking for a solid set check out the Outdoor Tech Audio Chips.

If you see 'All-Season Padding Included' on a product page, it comes with the summer padding to make this helmet comfortably usable year round. You can remove the winter knit, and apply the provided padding to get you ready for bike season (Or warmer skiing conditions).

Sort of. The winter knit is one single piece, so the ear pads can’t be removed on their own. If you want more airflow, you can fully swap the winter kit for the summer padding—no ear coverage, just vents wide open. But if you’re hoping to just pop the ear pads off and keep the top knit? Not possible… unless you have scissors and zero regrets.

All of the Bern Snow Helmets come with a goggle clip pre-installed on the back. If you choose to convert for bike use and grab a light; this is the same spot a light would mount. Simply unscrew the goggle clip, and install the Diamond/Quickmount Asteroid light in this mounting location.
