Got this helmet the other day. It arrived on time, although the box was slightly dirty. The helmet design on the "Sam Larson" one I got is just beautiful. It really stands out and is the nicest helmet graphic I have yet to see. The BOA system works flawlessly. The magnetic clip (yes, it has one) also works flawlessly, although I'm not entirely sure why they went with this vs a buckle...My brother has an Anon Striker (discontinued last year, but similar to the raider). The design on the exterior is different. My Rodan is bigger and overall gives more protection. There is also more interior padding and the ear muff padding is fluffier. The Rodan is also surprisingly lighter than the Striker. Comes with a small stand, pictured above. I would like to note that I got the X-large size. Although my head is more of a large, i got the extra large so it fits in a ski mask of some sort. Might want to consider...All in all, great helmet. A steal for the price. get it before this sale ends! Prices have already gone up slightly.

I love everything about this helmet EXCEPT 1 thing. This helmet is lightweight, comfortable, warm, it looks great and I think the Boa system made this helmet a lot better than any helmet I've worn. I didn't feel the need to take it off to give my head a break, it didn't get too hot, it was perfect until I tried to wear earbuds with it. I use the PowerBeats wireless earbuds that wrap around your ears and have a gel tip with external buttons on both of the sides. The earpads created enough pressure on the earbuds to get lodged so deep in my ear canal that they muted any music coming from them as well as any outside noises like people talking to me. The earpads also managed to hit the buttons on these earbuds, skipping and pausing songs when I didn't mean for them to. It sounds like I need to go back to standard apple wired earbuds for this but definitely something you want to take into account when buying this.

This Anon Rodan Helmet was well worth the money! I highly recommend this helmet. It works very well with the Anon M2 Goggles. Everything works as expected. The magnetic chain strap clasp is easy to open and close. There are the appropriate number of vents. The Goggle band holder in the back is handy, it helps keep your goggles attached to the helmet. The dial in the back that tightens the helmet around your head is very useful. On my most recent snowboarding trip in February 2018 I hand a nasty fall where I was TRYING to make an S-turn and my back was facing down hill and I caught an edge and my body was wiped like a towel and I smacked my head hard on the snow. If I did not have my helmet on I think I would have been knocked out with a concussion. I am not sure if this helmet can use the wireless Bluetooth headphones for helmets.

The sizing for the small states 52 - 55cm. My head is exactly 55cm. I can't even begin to get this on. Nowhere close. Based on this helmet I couldn't even be sure if the medium would fit. I decided to go with a different helmet all together.

Feels sturdy. Boa adjustment is quick and easy. No longer concerned with catching an edge accidentally. Held up well the few times I’ve landed hard and slammed my head on hard packed snow. I will always have a helmet and Anon is a winner in my book

I bought the medium size just a week ago writing this review, and I thought reading the reviews would help me out, but for the price point for me, it’s not worth it at all. The helmet seems cheap, and for $133, it’s not what I expected. Worst of all, the padding on the inside is maybe 3mm thick AT MOST. And after being at a shop today and feeling the padding in other helmets, I am very dissatisfied with this purchase. Putting it on, the padding does nothing, I can feel the shell through the padding, and it just genuinely isn’t comfortable. For around $15 more there were helmets at the shop I was just at; that felt amazing. And had about a half inch of padding on the inside. Cheaper helmets still had the option of opening and closing vents. This helmet doesn’t have that option at all. I would honestly try to find a store in person and grab a helmet, but if you’re looking for comfort… this one isn’t it. I bought a bunch of helmet pads for bike helmets, that I am hoping I can add to help it out. I don’t have a choice but to use this helmet. I cannot return it. I left out of state the following day so I had no option to return in after just getting back today. I’ll try to deal with it this winter, but I might end up pulling the trigger and just buying a different helmet from this shop. I 100% fully regret this purchase. Maybe who ever is reading this, might be able to deal with it, but I personally can’t. This is my first year after 15 years of boarding with out a helmet. And this one isn’t making a good case for staying with a helmet.

I was against wearing helmets for a long time but seeing some big I injuries convinced me that it was the right choice. I took a big fall this season and the helmet likely saved me from a head injury. Its proven comfortable and durable

Very light weight and comfortable. The large was a little bit too loose and the medium was a little too tight or else I would’ve given it 5 stars. My head is 59cm so right on the border of both sizes.
