Good helmet-friendly coverage

I used this on a windy resort day and liked that it covered my neck and face without feeling bulky under my helmet.

Works well in changing weather

The UPF rating is a nice bonus for spring skiing, and it was easy to pull up or down depending on the wind.

Solid everyday balaclava

Simple, warm enough for most lift-served days, and the one-size fit worked fine for me under goggles and a helmet.
