Smith Optics is well known for making wonderful looking and technically advanced eye-wear. For years , folk have enjoyed their sunglasses, prescription eye-wear and shades. But Smith Optics is also an important name in snow helmets.

Smith Optics started making ski helmets because they were assured they could make them better or at a minimum cooler looking. With all the tech they managed to put into their eye-wear, not a lot of people would doubt that claim.

Smith snow helmets or Smith ski helmets, as anticipated, are stuffed with tech. These helmets are specially designed to ensure the sportsman remains cosy and protected during practice or competition.

Eradicating Gaper Gap
Gaper gaps are a bane to board enthusiasts. A gaper gap is the space between the goggle and the helmet. A serious gaper gap can result in you feeling cold and sun burnt.

To remedy this, the designers of Smith ski helmets and goggles have found the way around that. Smith snow helmets have been carefully built to fit flush against the goggle frame thus junking gaper gap. Now, you won’t only feel better while skiing or snow boarding, you will also look much cooler.

Good Ventilation Is A Must

Normal helmets have a tendency to trap warm, wet air in the goggle chamber which would result in goggles fogging up and impedeing vision. The key to solving that difficulty is by improving ventilation so the wet air is siphoned out of the eyeglasses to maintain excellent vision at every point. Smith ski helmets has a system called the AirEvac that addresses that issue brilliantly. This air-conditioning system guarantees maximum airflow to expedite evacuation of fog-causing air.

AirEvac two
But Smith engineers didn’t just stop there. They went ahead and took it up a bit by introducing AirEvac two. This systems continues to draw goggle-fogging warm air away from glasses thru external vents and internal channels in the EPS liner of Smith ski helmets.

The nicest thing is that the internal airflow can be regulated thru Smith snowboard helmets ‘ Regulator Climate Control System. You can easily adjust it for optimum airflow if you’d like to reduce internal temperatures or totally close it to fit your preference. All this while, AirEvac two will be working to constantly draw out warm air. How cool it that? Joke intended.

Exhaust System
All that warm air has to go somewhere and Smith engineers have made certain that it exits the helmet at the furthest point from the goggles thru the AirEvac two EPS vent channels.

To sum up,

  • AirEvac 2 dumps warm air at the furthest point from the goggles
  • Smith ski helmets have been designed to eliminate gaper gaps
  • Smith ski helmets AirEvac 2 allows internal airflow to be regulated
