The Review

Sweet Protection - Igniter II Alpiniste Helmet 18/19

8.7 Score

The Sweet Protection Igniter II Alpiniste helmet is probably the safest helmet in the market for us splitboarders. Thanks to its ABS Thermoplastic shell, Impact Shields and Composite Drop Impact Protection, it exceeds the requirements for both certifications, mountaineering (EN12492) and ski/snowboarding (CE EN1077) , and one can notice that feeling of safety when wearing it. Perfectly adjustable fit, don’t be afraid to ride fast while wearing the Igniter II Alpiniste, Sweet Protection equals safety.

PROS

  • Great fit out of the box
  • Superior adjustability with the Occigrip turndial fit system
  • The feel of toughness and safety when wearing it
  • Removable earpads that don’t affect the fit of the helmet

CONS

  • Honestly, we couldn’t find anything we didn’t like about this helmet. We know it’s not the lightest helmet in the market, but we rather feel safe than save a few grams
