thanks for that comparison, I’m hoping to make the same switch this season.
I mostly hate that mine is white
It's always weird that folks don't look like their profile picture.
Whereas I look exactly like my profile picture.

Picked up the new Smith Method helmet that replaced the Maze in their lineup. Here are some shots next to my Maze (both Mediums). Overall, they fit very similarly, with the Method feeling a little more secure and pulled in around the back of my head/occipital area. They also switched up the vents and added Koroyd to the back. Overall the same aesthetic and weight, with better tech and fit. Still the lightest/lowest profile/best looking helmet IMO.

I picked one up last season, love the helmet but holy hell the airflow on my thinning hairline up here in the north.

Man, Geoff (my dog/profile pic) isn’t doing great just now. His hind leg is giving him grief and it makes me sad. I’m not sure how long he’s going to be around.
