The Black Diamond Vapor Helmet is a cutting-edge helmet designed for climbers who demand top performance without compromise. Its construction combines a polycarbonate crown overlaying a super-light ALUULA composite layer for enhanced protection and reduced weight, while the sides are molded from EPP foam to maximize airflow and reduce bulk.
At approximately 155 grams for size S/M (and slightly more for larger sizes),it delivers one of the lightest protection options in its class. The ultralight cord-fit system allows precise adjustment, while still being packable and minimally intrusive. Venting is excellent thanks to its geometric, open-air design. Headlamp clips are included (replaceable),prepared for alpine starts or when climbing into the evening. Certified to UIAA and CE standards for safety.
The Vapor Helmet is particularly suitable for traditional climbs, big wall ascents, alpine routes, and any situation where saving every gram counts — offering protection, comfort, and ventilation in a very light package. Care is needed to avoid damage from impacts or compression, since ultra-light materials sacrifice some ruggedness for reduced weight.
