Review: Mammut Wall Rider MIPS

The only real downside to the MIPS version of the Wall Rider is the weight. It’s a bit heavier than the regular version of the Wall Rider, 260g instead of 220g, and heavier than the Petzl Sirroco (185g) or the Edelrid Salathe (215g). However, the extra protection offered by the MIPS makes it quite a versatile helmet that works well rock climbing, alpine climbing and even ski touring (though it’s not specifically rated for it in part due to the large vents holes that are not allowed on ski helmets).
