Salomon Orka Visor

The Orka Visor is Salomon's answer for young skiers who want head protection without the fuss of managing a separate goggle. The integrated Flash visor gives a wide field of vision and can be swapped out to match changing light conditions on the mountain, while the lightweight In-Mold shell and EPS liner absorb impacts reliably.

Why we rate it

The helmet feels modern and less bulky than older kids' designs. The visor does the job of goggles, so you're getting simplicity and a cleaner look in one piece. The Custom Dial fit system works smoothly—just twist to adjust without fiddling with straps. At 435 g it's notably light, which matters when you're wearing it all day. The removable, washable liner is practical for parents.

Who it's for

Junior skiers aged 6–10, or anyone with a head circumference between 49 and 59 cm. Best suited to young riders on-piste or all-mountain terrain who want comfort and protection without overthinking it.
