Hi all,
My last helmet is cracked and overdue for replacement, and so I'm looking for a new helmet that offers both top and side protection. I'm trying to decide between the Petzl Boreo and the Petzl METEOR.
Petzl Boreo - Hard ABS skin, full surround EPP/EPS
- Makes the most sense to me as ABS spreads load and EPS softens force
Petzl METOR - Thin PC skin, full surround EPS
- Saves some weight, but no ABS, looks awesome
So my question is, does the Petzl METOR still offer the same impact strength, (falling rock, trad fail and crashing sideways/upsidedown into wall), as the Boreo, and is the weight saving really worth it?
Thanks!
