how do you guys wear your icons? Im looking to buy a helmet and im not sure if theyll fit under or not
other than that, ive seen people like tanner hall wear them with the back band going along the back of his head just under the helmet line. Any ideas on wearing/keeping them on with a helmet?

behind your head and if you want you can put them under helmet straps and through the clip thing if your helmet has a good one, like a snap one so they can never get free

Just tighten your strap and it will hold them in place.

wear them with the top to the back. you can put them under or over your goggle straps but under your helmet strap to secure them. i also find putting the wire above the helmet strap also keeps them from sliding down as well. as for the icon 2's there isn't much of a difference so either way you're golden.

best way to do it is cut a strip of the foam out in your helmet and those babies just slide on in..

it works very nicely

Yeah Smith made the maze helmet with a removable strip of foam in order for you to wear goggles under your helmet but icons will fit under too. the back right vent on the maze is also a bottle opener haha. gotta love working at a ski shop.
