2009-2010 Capix Helmets

For the 2009-2010 season, Capix helmets are coming out with snowboard helmets. You might have seen some people on the mountain sporting the Capix Skate Cap, which is actually a skateboarding helmet (also cheaper compared to a snowboard helmet!) and can be worn backwards. For those who like Capix's style but have been begging for a snowboard line, well, your wishes have come true! Capix certainly went all-out with the snowboard helmets, they even have some pro signature helmets along with collaboration helmets. For those who are curious, the Capix team are Louie Vito, Chris Dufficy, Pat Milbery, Chanelle Sladics, Dave Fortin, Jake Devine, and Aaron Shapiro.

Here's the non-collaboration, non-pro signature snowboard helmets:


Other available colors: Gray, Brown, White


Other available colors: Black, Gray, White


Other available colors: Black with black and red "C" and straps, White with white and green "C" and straps, Blue with blue and white "C" and straps


Other available colors: Red with blue ear covers thing, Blue with white ear covers, White with white ear covers


Other available colors: Black, Blue with white ear covers, Brown with black (I think) ear covers




Other available colors: Black with black and white zebra stripes on straps, Brown with brown and pink zebra strips on straps, White with white and baby blue zebra stripes on straps
Sidenote: I personally own this helmet in blue, and I LOVE IT! The blue is really bright, it's so intense! The helmet also has some kind of rubbery material on it, it feels like a dolphin. If you've ever touched one before, you know what I'm talking about.


Here's the collaboration helmets:













Finally, the pro models helmets:

Pat Milbery Helmet
Sidenote: this one surprised me because he's always wearing his Skate Cap, he even has it on in his picture (below) in the catalog right next to his pro model helmet! Haha

Good article! I own the old skatecap, I've loved it over the years. I am def. buying Capix again. I'm thinking the Gambler one with the red & blue. So dope!
