So happy with the helmet

Best helmet on the market
"I just bought my second of these helmets, they embody everything great about 509, lightweight, strong, safe, and very aesthetically pleasing. Can’t wait to put on my new one this year."
Great helmet

My favorite piece of 509 gear!!
"The Altitude 2. 0 Carbon is the best helmet I have every owned. The fidlock is my favorite feature allowing me to take my helmet off and put it back on in seconds. After taking a few tunnel strikes to the head I can attest that the carbon fiber is extremely tough yet so light that I do not have neck fatigue at the end of the day. This is a helmet that is worth the investment."
Great!
"Fit and finish on this helmet is amazing!"
Protection and Comfort – Worth Every Penny!
"I’ve been using the Altitude 2. 0 Carbon Fiber Helmet for a few months now, and it’s easily one of the best helmets I’ve owned. The carbon fiber construction makes it incredibly strong while staying impressively lightweight, you really notice the difference on longer rides. The fit and finish are top-notch. The padding inside is plush but breathable, and the adjustable strap system ensures a snug, secure fit without any pressure points. Ventilation is excellent, I also appreciate the aerodynamic design and how quiet it feels at speed. From a safety standpoint, it inspires real confidence. The carbon shell feels rock-solid, and the overall build quality is premium. Plus, it just looks fantastic, sleek, modern, and clearly well-engineered. If you’re serious about performance and protection, the Altitude 2. 0 Carbon Fiber Helmet is a smart investment. It delivers the perfect balance of comfort, style, and safety. Highly recommended!"
Altitude 2. 0 Carbon fiber helmet
"I love how light it weight. Fits good with the googles and is pretty warm and comfortable in the harsh cold environment I drive in. And the design of the helmet is looking good! I took the white and black one."
My favorite helmet of all time
"Absolutely love my 509 Altitude 2. 0 Carbon Fiber Helmet. The first thing that stood out to me was the style — it just looks amazing. Every time I’m out riding, I get compliments on it. The sleek carbon fiber finish really turns heads. But beyond the looks, it’s the comfort that sealed the deal for me. It fits perfectly and feels super light — no more neck strain, even after long days on the sled. It’s one of those helmets you forget you're even wearing, which says a lot. 509 nailed it with this one — premium quality, great design, and all-day comfort. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their gear."
Q&A
- Are there any special goggles that need to be used with a 509 Altitude 2.0 helmet?
- Hey Eric, all 509 goggles are compatible across our helmet range, including the Altitude 2.0 Helmet. However please note, if you are helmet size 2X or greater, we recommend selecting a 509 goggle with XL in the name as those goggles contain a 20% increase in face foam to accommodate for the greater shell sizes and ensure a perfect seal.
- What helmet/cheek pad sizes are compatible with in each of the 3 shell sizes? Eg XS-M in 1 shell size, L-2XL in 2nd shell size, and 3XL-4XL in 3rd shell size?
- Hey Amery, for this helmet the shell breakdowns are as follows. • XS-SM = 1st shell size • MD-XL = 2nd shell size • 2XL-4XL = 3rd shell size
- Can the helmet be used in summer? Like for example, to do motocross?
- Hey Audrey! Yes our snow helmets are able to be used for motocross, you would just need to remove breath box, vent plugs and chin curtain to make it more suitable for dirt.
- Is the acid green color like a hi vis yellow or is it actually green?
- Hello! The Acid Green is more of a light green, it's a similar green as the non carbon version. Definitely more green than hi-vis.
- Hi, just received my Altitude 2.0 helmet. Fits great? In the Key Features it states that the helmet has "GoPro mounting capability, improved design". Is the flat area behind the visor on the top of the helmet designed for the GoPro adhesive mount? Thanks, Thomas
- Hello! Yes, that area is where the GoPro adhesive mount should go. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions!
