Lets take a look at the second Fox MTB helmet to make our list. Again, as you would expect from Fox this is a helmet very much designed with mountain biking in mind. This helmet is designed to provide a little more protection than the one we looked at previously from this manufacturer though, being a good middle ground between a lighter half shell and heavier full face helmet.

The big stand out is the Varizorb Multi-Density Impact Protection system. This use EPS foam insulation of varied densities, providing extra impact protection exactly where it is most needed. This has resulted in a slightly thicker EPS layer within the helmet. This could have made the helmet a bit hotter in use, but Fox have fought back against this by incorporating 10 extra deep ventilation ports.
