The Bern Baker was introduced to the world for the first time at the last winter Olympics by gold medalist and Bern friend Seth Wescott, since then the Baker has captured the attention of all serious action sports athletes. The Baker is the world's first functional visor lid.
In developing the Baker, Bern spoke with the most progressive athletes in skate, snow and wake. Riders wanted a visor lid that was stylish and functional, meaning the visor is meant to be worn forward, keeping sun and precipitation our of your eyes. Bern are proud to introduce the Baker. From Chad Sharpe, to Scott Byerly the top names in wake, skate and snow are riding Bern. The time has come for change, Bern has arrived. Be aware of imitators - if it ain't a Baker, it's a faker!

Brock Foam

· Custom Fit - Brock Foam is relatively soft and flexible, allowing it to adapt to a wide variety of head shapes and sizes
· Light Weight - much lighter than the same helmet in EPS
· Breathable - If water can pass through the foam, air can circulate no problem - helping to keep your head cool.
· Comfortable - due to the light weight, custom fit and the breathability - you soon forget you are wearing it!
· Low Profile - the foam is thiner than on the EPS version or any other EPS helmet - so it does not look like you are riding with a big lump on your head!
· Please note: Brock Foam hard hats are not certified helmets for winter sports use. They are hard hats not helmets. This lid does, however, have CE1385 certification in Europe.
