Designed for climbing, mountaineering and ski touring, the METEOR helmet is lightweight and low profile, with excellent ventilation, making it comfortable for both summer and winter. The design provides reinforced protection to the top and circumference of the head. METEOR is the first CE-certified ski touring helmet. Optimal integration points for ski goggles or visors, making it a thoughtfully styled helmet that is optimized for ski touring. This helmet does not meet the requirements of the EN 1077 standard for alpine ski helmets.

 You have something really ventilated for the ascending. If you climb a couloir in the sun it's really warm. You also have already the helmet on your head and then when you go down you don't have as many protection as a ski helmet but you already have some protection. The goal is to make possible with a good compromise between comfort and protection to practice ski touring

 Hello, my name is Pierre from Petel and I will present you a brand new Meteor in outdoor Freddy Schaffen 18. First the Meteor is an helmet dedicated to climbing and mountaineering but especially suited also for ski touring. So first benefit on this one, this Meteor is really lightweight, 240 grams, really well ventilated and really low profile on the head. We managed to decrease the global height of the helmet by one centimeter on the head

 So first benefit on this one, this Meteor is really lightweight, 240 grams, really well ventilated and really low profile on the head. We managed to decrease the global height of the helmet by one centimeter on the head. So it's a lot of engineering and it will manage to have a better looking with the helmet on the head. The second key point on this one is protection

 If you fall you can also hurt the head on the rock and that's why you need to be protected on the side, on the rear and also on the front, not only on the top. And third, especially suited for ski touring, first it's not a ski standard helmet but it's the best compromise if you want to wear an helmet in ski touring since the car back to the car. You have something really ventilated for the ascending. If you climb a couloir in the sun it's really warm

 So the new updated Meteor is also 220 grams, the same weight as the old Meteor, and just a new low profile design. So the new Meteor has a compatibility with the screen, which is a face shield visor for any sort of inclement weather, blowing snow, sun protection, for any sort of protection if you're not wearing glasses or not wearing goggles underneath. And it hooks right on to the front and comes up and down as a visor. This is the best value for your buck in terms of having a super lightweight helmet that you can really do everything in from rock climbing to multi-pitch climbing to being in the mountains, ice climbing, and ski touring, but it also is not going to break the bank

 The new updated Meteor comes in three different colors. It comes in a purple, a gray, and the orange. So the new updated Meteor is also 220 grams, the same weight as the old Meteor, and just a new low profile design. So the new Meteor has a compatibility with the screen, which is a face shield visor for any sort of inclement weather, blowing snow, sun protection, for any sort of protection if you're not wearing glasses or not wearing goggles underneath

 The updated Meteor has a new low profile design for climbing, mountaineering, ice climbing, and enhanced for ski touring. In terms of construction, it has a polycarbonate shell on top. It has an EPS injected foam liner on the inside, so it's going to protect from any sort of impact from above, but it also has the Petzl top and side protection. We test from the side, the front, and the rear of the helmet and have a little bit higher standards than the normal European standard

 We say if you don't like it, check our website. There is a tech tip that tells you how to take a hairdryer and something pokey, heat up the metal and just poke the magnet out. So it's nice if you're blindly fastening your strap underneath your chin and it's great 99% of the time, but if you're in the wrong area, you can get some iron filings in there. As a final little point here, just while I've got you and we're talking about helmets, that dual certification that we talked about for the Meteora, the Meteor, and the Sirocco, that's for ski touring, our Pichu gets a dual certification for cycling

 When you get your UIAA climbing test for a helmet, what they do is they drop something directly on the top of the helmet, and then they pivot it about 15 degrees, and they drop another thing on it. Petzl noticed after watching a lot of people fall, and after taking a lot of falls ourselves, we're seeing a lot of impacts to the back of the helmet, on the edge there, to the side of the helmet, onto the edge, and on the front of the helmet. So we developed this in-house proprietary test where we're also testing our sport helmets for impacts to the side, to the back, and to the front. So you'll see this enhanced top and side protection on all Petzl sports helmets

 So we developed this in-house proprietary test where we're also testing our sport helmets for impacts to the side, to the back, and to the front. So you'll see this enhanced top and side protection on all Petzl sports helmets. What it means is that it's past that extra Petzl test, and we've engineered it specifically to be able to offer a certain level of protection in that lower area. What I'll add there is that there is an EN test, and there is a UIAA test for helmet certification

Petzl Meteor Helmet | Blister

OutdoorGearLab

The perfect climbing helmet would be so lightweight and comfortable that you could easily forget that you even have it on. It would also protect your head from impacts from above &#40;falling rocks or ice&#41;, as well as on the sides &#40;hitting your head while falling&#41;. The Petzl Sirocco does all of these things and more, and our testers love it for its "barely there" design. Weighing a mere 6.1 oz., this featherweight product has never left our necks feeling tired, and more often than not, we forgot we had it on. We also appreciate the carefully molded combination of EPP foam on the sides &mdash; a softer, light, and more malleable foam that protects from side impacts and is impressively resilient &mdash; combined with an EPS foam and polycarbonate piece on the crown of the head that provides more bomber protection from projectiles falling from above. This winning combination remains super light and provides respectable protection everywhere it's needed. Add in a comfortable fit, excellent ventilation, and easy-to-use headlamp clips that are also compatible with ski goggles for ski mountaineering missions, and the Sirocco is a helmet that's truly ideal for all purposes.
All good things still have their downsides, and the Sirocco is no exception. It is pricey, so it may not be the ideal choice for someone on a budget. The minimalist straps keep the weight down but aren't nearly as easy to dial in as a slider bar or click wheel. Finally, since it's not completely covered in polycarbonate, care is needed to ensure that it doesn't get damaged inside or outside your pack. Qualms aside, this is the helmet you will see on the vast majority of professionals, and for a good reason. No matter what kind of climbing you engage in, the Sirocco is an optimal choice.

The original Petzl Sirocco shook up the climbing world with its lightweight yet durable construction and soon earned the endorsement of many serious alpinists. The second version builds off the first, with similar fundamentals but a more traditional shape and palatable look. Like the Black Diamond Vision above, the Sirocco uses a combination of expanded polypropylene (EPP) and expanded polystyrene (EPS), but with less polycarbonate covering and a lower-profile design, it weighs almost 2 ounces less. In fact, this helmet is so feathery light that you’ll forget it’s on your head.

For ounce-counting alpine climbers, it doesn’t get any better than the Sirocco. And last year, the premium lid got a considerable $30 price drop, bringing it down to a very reasonable $110. With this change, the Petzl is a strong contender for our top spot, but the Vision ekes out the win with less polarizing looks, a user-friendly adjustment, and a slightly more durable build (thanks to the larger polycarbonate shell). Further, we’ve been less than impressed with the Sirocco’s magnetic chin buckle and rear cinch, which have a tendency to loosen or come undone while climbing. But the Sirocco nevertheless is one of the lightest and most premium climbing helmets on the market, it’s also certified for ski touring, which puts it in exclusive category along with the Petzl Meteor below. See the Petzl Sirocco Helmet

 Tested on the most difficult peaks highest, big walls and in the deepest caves. This helmet delivers the ideal combination of ultra-lightweight protection and comfort.. The Petzl SIROCCO is perfect for any sufferfest in the mountains, no matter if it’s on rock snow or ice

 The hybrid construction of the SIROCCO allows it to weigh only 170 grams.. The main body of the helmet is made of expanded, polypropylene foam and provides amazing impact, absorption and withstands multiple impacts without damage.

 The removable and washable padding inside the helmet helps with sweat and cushions against pressure points. Numerous ventilation holes are located around the entire helmet to deliver optimal airflow during warm day-long ascents.. The low-profile webbing suspension system is simple to adjust, easy to store and is equipped with a magnetic buckle that snaps shut quickly and easily

SIROCCO - Ultra-lightweight climbing and mountaineering helmet

 That'S pretty cool all right, so this design is um slightly different to a normal helmet, it's kind of like a foam composite around the edge a little bit in the middle and then there's a a really thin light shell. On top, the straps are really thin again. This is such a light helmet all right, let's see if i can put it on without adjusting any of the straps. I'M going to pause the video just here for a second and ask for your help in supporting my channel as i've not received any financial benefits for featuring this petzl product

 It is so light, there's literally nothing to it place it on the floor for a second one. Last little look at the box, [ Music ], and that's that okay, it is so light. This thing is absolutely [: Music, ] wafer thin. It feels like it's just gon na float away uh

 Let'S have a closer look. The side, there's the top nice shiny top, just something about petzl. I really like the brand petzl and they're one of the companies that make some of the best stuff and looking for the best helmet on the market. This is pretty much what came up everywhere

PETZL Sirocco 2 [UNBOXING REVIEW] Ultra-Lightweight Rock Climbing Helmet

Moving from my 6 year old BD Half Dome, this immediate difference is noticing this helmet is half of the weight. I'd still use my old helmet for most days at the crag, and reserve this for long multi-pitch days or sending hard routes. In terms of durability, I tend to baby this helmet inside my pack rather than clipping it outside where it accumulates bumps/scrapes. Not a game-changer, but definitely considering picking one up if there is a decent sale

Fantastic upgrade from BD Half Dome

 The Sicarro isn't big a bulky like rhe others that make you look lik a bobble head...very pleased

Been using this helmet for about a month now, its awesome. Very light,  n sits perfect. The Sicarro isn't big a bulky like rhe others that make you look lik a bobble head.

SUPER lightweight

This is my to-go helmet for alpine adventures where every oz counts, incredibly comfortable, easy to adjust and ultra-lightweight. Time will tell about durability but feels pretty strong.
