How often is your helmet used? How is it stored? How much UV damage has it sustained? Has your helmet been damaged from falling over?<\/p>\n<p>If you rarely go skiing, it hasn\u2019t received any damage and it was only a short trip you will find your helmet will last much longer. However, if you are a regular skier, you would need to replace your helmet a lot more frequently due to UV damage. Most people would replace their ski helmets after 2 or 3 ski seasons. If your helmet has any damage, it is safest to replace it immediately.<\/p>\n<p>When your helmet is not in use it needs to be stored away from any UV damage, so usually in the bottom of a cupboard or wardrobe is a safe place. A special helmet case will help prevent your helmet from getting damaged when in transit or when stored.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainwarehouse.com\/pinnacle-unisex-ski-helmet-p12154.aspx\/black\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-20671\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainwarehouse.com\/community\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ski-helmet.jpg\" alt=\"Black Pinnacle Unisex Ski Helmet\" width=\"171\" height=\"230\" data-id=\"16782\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.cdn.mountainwarehouse.com\/community\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ski-helmet.jpg 397w, https:\/\/blog.cdn.mountainwarehouse.com\/community\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ski-helmet-242x325.jpg 242w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 171px) 100vw, 171px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"row\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p class=\"pdp-product-title j-title-hook\"><strong>Pinnacle Unisex Ski Helmet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button\" style=\"width: 300px; background-color: red; color: white; border: 2px solid black; font-weight: 600; padding: 10px;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mountainwarehouse.com\/ski\/ski-accessories\/helmets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Shop ski helmets<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q.\u00a0How long do ski helmets last?
