cheaply made helmet
"You get what you pay for" holds true for this helmet. I bought this helmet because of the excellent reviews it received and its reasonable price. But was quickly disappointed after opening the box. The helmet has an overall cheap feel and look to it. The "velveteen" cover was thin and bumpy to the touch. The dial to adjust the fit is nice for a growing child.

Awesome helmet
Love this helmet fits awesome which is hard to find seeing as my hair is so thick I can never fit it all up under the helmet. Also can use it for shoes which is amazing!

Great value and looks very nice
I had been looking for a schooling helmet but wanted something that looked nice too. I took a chance in this one because I figured I could also wear it for local shows in English classes. I have a small head and this helmet was almost too small. It's a nice looking light helmet and I can wear it for long periods without getting a headache. A win in my book

Good helmet at decent price
I wanted a pretty velvet helmet without spending $$$$ and the reviews for this seemed favorable. I measured my head and I run right between a Medium and Large for most sizing so I decided it wouldn't be a bad idea to get a dial-fit for my first helmet.
It's quite pretty, fits well, and looks like it has lots of venting - which was also very important to me. I am really uncomfortable in high heat and mugginess, and we get plenty of that in NY. I can't wait to compare it to the cheaper but airier schooling helmets my stable has, I'm hopeful that I haven't sacrificed much temperature control.
I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

Love this helmet!
I love this helmet! It is the most comfortable and stylish helmet that I have ever owned! It is super light weight and easily adjustable with the small dial at the back of the harness. I would absolutely recommend this for a schooling or local show helmet. Spectacular buy!

Glad I bought this one
This ovation helmet was on sale when I purchased it. It seems to run a bit small but I'm so glad I bought it. It seems super in every other way. The faux velvet finish is classic and looks durable.Bottom strap has a padded add on for comfort and it sports a removable lining. If I were manufacturing this helmet, which I'm not, I'd improve on the plastic visor. It is made of a thin plastic that appears not as well made as the rest. Overall, it is very comfortable to wear and looks great.

Great Value
This helmet is everything and more. If you are looking for a nice looking, low profile helmet that is not going to break the bank, THIS IS IT! It is lightweight and I love the adjustable dial for the winter when I wear an ear band or hat. It even comes with a little helmet bag to keep the "barn dust" off when you are not using it!

I like it!
I bought this to replace a hard hat that was 17 years old! I am sort of 'old school' & love my worn out velvet hard hat with the grosgrain bow on the back, but it was time to upgrade & get with the times. I really like this helmet---it is lightweight, looks great, not bulky, & is super comfy. I finally got to ride in it this past weekend & it didn't shift or pinch. I like the air vents-will be nice for hot summer riding. The 'velvet' looks pretty good & fancy enough to show in. The visor is a little flimsy, & mine was actually bent from the box, but I was able to bend it back to it's correct shape. I love the dial in the back for getting the fit just right. I had put off buying a new helmet because I just wasn't embracing the 'new' styles, but I found what I like in this one.

Nice Fit!
Very comfortable helmet and the adjustable dial really helps when sharing. Cushy interior, durable exterior with a soft velvety finish but it withstands dirt. I toss my helmets around and this one still looks good.

great helmet!
Great helmet, looks and feels great but a little narrow on the sides of the head. Great for people with more of an oval shaped head. The velvet is very appealing but does get dirty easily. Helmet keeps you cool even on hot days!

Love it!
Recently I started showing again in an adult league and my trainer suggested that I get a show helmet and she suggested several and her fav was Charles Owens brand so I tried Dover's full line and none of them fit right. Low n behold OV makes a velvet version of my schooling helmet that I LOVE (I love the fact that I can adjust the tightness). You have to love SMARTPAK because they got it to me the Friday before my first ever show and I had ordered it Tuesday late night. And the price is wonderful because it didn't break the bank.

Great Helmet
The Ovation Competitor Helmet was a great purchase for a very comfortable helmet. I have always been a fan of ovation helmets because I like the dial-fit system. I am glad they make both schooling and show helmets, because they are comfortable and have a great life cycle.

Nice Low Profile Helmet!
Great helmet! Very comfortable low profile and light weight design. Wore it this weekend at a big rated show and received several compliments on it. Everyone wanted to know what brand it was and I loved that you couldn't tell just by looking at it. Looks spendy, but isn't!

Amazing!
i had been riding in my previous helmet for two years and had just entered in a schooling show when i was informed that my helmet was not ASTM approved. the show was in three days and i was riding in two days. So i went to my local tack shop and tryed on the ovation competeter helmet. it fit perfectly and was comfortably. I loved the velvet look so i could show and was not sufficating it is easy to clean and comes with a helmet bag.The small viser is helpfull becuse it does not affect vision. At the tack show it was 75.99 dollors so I went to Smartpakequine.com and it was only 67.99. I was worried it would not arive in time but it came the nexed day! I also ordered ovation zocks so I could get free shiping. I LOVE THIS HELMET.

Great helmet, fantastic price!
I bought the Ovation Competitor helmet during the International Helmet Awareness Day promotion. This is a fantastic helmet. My head is a bit small and the dial fit system allows me to get the perfect snug fit. The removable coolmax liner is a dream as I have always had issues trying to figure out how to clean the inside of my CO skullcap. The Ovation is well ventilated, which is a must for me in TN summers! I've only schooled in this helmet so far, but the velveteen exterior is sleek enough to show in. The only reason I did not rate the durability is that I have only had the helmet for about a month. I absolutely love this helmet and you can't beat the price for a helmet that looks this nice. Since buying this helmet, my CO skullcap is sitting in the tack trunk!

Good Helmet Great Price
This is my first helmet and I love it! I've worn several other helemts and this is the most comfortable and easy to adjust. The dial fit system is great and it looks sharp. The only drawback is the visor. It looks okay but feels cheap and flimsy. I have yet to test the durability. Overall a good helmet for a great price.

Perfect Fit as Always
I really like how the Ovation helmets fit me. I ride in the Sync for schooling. I bought this helmet for show and had the opportunity to use it this past weekend. It fit perfectly and looks nice with the lower profile. It does seem like it will be hard to keep clean, but that is true of most velvet helmets. Since it will be used only at shows, I am not too worried about the dust.

Good Schooling Helmet
This product is new - it used to be just a plastic helmet but then the company made the feux-velvet version. I loved the low-profile fit and the fact that it wasn't plastic - all for a really affordable price. I think it was great. I had to wait 2 months because it was on back order but that is because at the time it was a new product and I called 3 other companies and none had it in stock. Smartpak was the only one that offered to ship it to me overnight for free - they have the best customer service!!

Light, well fitting helmet (for a great price)!
This helmet was recommended to me by a friend, and I'm glad I tried it. It is light, fits well and I love the dial to adjust it depending on what kind of "hair day" I'm having. It looks very nice, too; people always ask what kind of helmet it is. The only slight drawback is that the velvety material attracts dirt very easily.
I can't attest to the durability yet as I've only used it for a few weeks (hence the average rating, I didn't see an option not to rate durability).

Very nice show helmet
I bought this helmet for my daughter and it fits very well. The dial adjust system is great. The profile is nice, too. It isn't too bulbous. The quality is what I would expect for a $67 helmet. She only does schooling shows, so it's perfect for her!

Love this helmet
I love the adjustability of this helmet and the low profile. I have a small head and helmets always look huge on me. I can loosen the fit and stuff my braid or tighten it and keep the braid out. Nice enough to show in too!

I have tried out a few numbers of helmets. This is by far the most fitting, good value and comfy one. If you have a big rounded head, this one is the one! Happy riding.
