No one plans to fall, but if you do, you'll be glad you're wearing one.

Here are the main reasons for wearing a helmet:

• Reduces the risk of head and brain injuries
• Offers protection if you're in a collision
• Keeps your goggles secure and in place
• Sets a good example for younger skiers
• Modern helmets are warm and comfortable
• Some include MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System), which adds an extra layer of protection

How to hire a helmet

You can add helmet hire to your booking directly through the MyBooking portal up to five days before you are due to travel.

To do this, log in to your MyBooking portal and scroll down to the 'Equipment Hire' section. From here you can add a helmet along with any other equipment you need, as well as viewing the location of the pick-up points. This lets you decide whether to book through us or organise it yourself. For more help, see: How do I add ski hire and ski passes to my booking?

If you need some help deciding what to select, please visit our Equipment Hire help page for further details.
