Yes, but only if the helmet carries the appropriate certifications. Check for CPSC or EN1078 certification for cycling in addition to the ski certifications (CE EN1077 or ASTM F2040). Not all convertible helmets are certified for multiple sports — some are marketed as versatile but only tested for skiing. Always verify the certification labels inside the helmet.
