Originally made for kayaking and wake. Just like sandbox, snowboarders started wearing them and now its made its way over to skiers.

capix or sandbox for sure. im glad you ruled out bern becouase the brims are very strange.... i dont think there is a goggle on the planet that can fit nicely with it...

They're just like bern. Not certified as a helmet but as a hard hat.

Which mean no, they're not safe. Do yourself a favor and buy a real helmet.
