Bellow:My red flak has had a year of action and still looks and fits great.
When it comes to a open face sk8 style lid the choices seem to be endless, You can go for low weight, wild shell designs, lots or no vents and a range of prices.
For me i went for the Flak by Giro.
Style wise its the same as the snowboard lid that Giro make (encore2) what i very much like as it works well with goggles and has a real nice shell, Next up its well vented for a dirt jump style lid, you can see why so many riders myself included run it as a all-mtn all day lid not just for dirt jumping.

tech: High Impact ABS shell adds a tough protective layer to a helmet that is likely to get its fair share of bumps and scrapes,13 vents help cooling even whilst riding at low speeds or when practicing your latest trick, Meets CE EN1078 certification.
At 410grams you can get a lower weight lid, But its not over bad and the main thing that made me get a few flak's was the fit, great padding, real nice fit around the head and just a well made product.
