When Should You Replace Your Ski Helmet?
Your ski helmet is one of the most important pieces of gear you own — and like all safety equipment, it doesn’t last forever. At Pelican Shops, we want every skier and snowboarder to stay protected with gear that performs the way it should when it matters most.
Most helmet manufacturers and safety experts recommend replacing your ski or snowboard helmet every 5–6 years, even if it looks perfectly fine. Over time, exposure to cold temperatures, UV rays, sweat, and everyday wear can break down the helmet’s internal foam and materials, reducing its ability to absorb impact.
If you’ve taken a fall where your helmet hit the snow, it’s time for a replacement — even if you don’t see cracks or damage. Helmets are designed as single-impact protection, and internal damage isn’t always visible. Continuing to use a compromised helmet can put you at serious risk in a future crash.
Today’s helmets also offer advanced safety features like MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System), which helps reduce rotational forces during an impact. Upgrading ensures you’re benefiting from the latest safety technology, improved fit, and better comfort.
