My daughter now starts to riding. First riding lesson behind us, she likes it, now needed a own riding helmet. Size I have taken 52-56 is almost 7 years and the helmet fits perfectly. Thought that he might be large but is lucky. The helmet has a beautiful smooth surface. That was me and my daughter somehow important xD because she did not like this Samtreithelme. The horse image is displayed on the helmet left and right. How long does the helmet I can not say but we are pleased that now a separate helmet is there. I would again at any time to buy real top small Beginners and certainly greater; D
