Climbing accident while wearing the Ecrin Roc Helmet
I recommend this helmet. Last summer I took about a 25 foot leader fall first hitting a foot, breaking two toes, which luckly flipped me over causing me to land directly on my head onto a large rock shelf, before bouncing and penduluming another 10 feet before coming to a stop. Compaired to everything else I hit on the way down, landing on my head while wearing the Ecrin Roc felt like I was falling into a pillow. I could actually feal the helmet absorb the shock. Afterwards when I visibly compaired it with my sons Ecrin the only sign of damage was that the internal webbing had stretched. I did not experience any of the light headedness nor neck soreness I did once when I was knocked out while logging with a hardhat on.

Great Helmet
Bought it for rock climbing but end up using it for mountaineering. Works well with a light hat or hood as well.

Rescue & Sport
I find Ecrin Roc a very good helmet! I use it both for rescue working with my Duo Led 5 lamp during my night ambulance duty and for climbing. Simply comfortable.
