Why We Like The Vision Helmet
The Vision Helmet is Black Diamond's most durable foam helmet for climbing. It has an updated design to the innovative hybrid construction that climbers have been enjoying for seasons. The polycarbonate shell covers a larger portion of the crown, and there's a layer of EPS foam underneath for added crown protection. EPP foam covers the rest of the helmet for multi-impact protection. The suspension system adjusts for a secure fit, and removable padding customizes the helmet's fit for even greater comfort.

Good Helmet
Good in between for the vapor and a traditional hardshell. As someone with a small head, I think this looks better on me than the vapor and other BD helmets.
