FAQs
Q: How does the Taggert compare to the Jackson?
A: Both are mid-to-upper-tier adult Giro helmets with MIPS and In-Mold construction. The Taggert is lighter and uses a Passive Aggressive Venting System that adjusts airflow automatically with your speed, the Jackson uses fixed venting. The Taggert is the pick for park riders and skiers who run warm, the Jackson for more all-mountain everyday use.
Q: Will the Taggert work for big-mountain skiing?
A: Yes. The Taggert’s lightweight feel is a real advantage on long traverses and bootpacks where every ounce matters. It’s a popular pick with backcountry and slack-country skiers.
Q: Is the Plush Max padding worth it?
A: On long days, yes. The Plush Max liner uses higher-grade open-cell foam that breathes better and stays warmer than standard helmet padding, so the helmet feels comfortable from chair one through last run.

Helmet Safety & Sizing
How to Measure Your Head
Using a soft tape measure, wrap it around your head about 1 inch above your eyebrows. That measurement in centimeters is your helmet size. Most helmets run in S/M/L/XL with size ranges printed on the box. If you’re between sizes, size up and use the fit dial to snug it down.
MIPS Technology
MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) is a low-friction layer inside the helmet that allows the helmet to rotate slightly on impact, reducing rotational forces on the brain. We recommend MIPS for most skiers and snowboarders – it’s especially valuable for kids and those who take big falls.
