The Kask helmets are generally good, with some nice touches- reflective material in the straps at the back and the under the chin is some leatherette (can't believe I just used that word....) erm fake leather anyway, feels better than the nylon strap.
I use their pointy hat (TM) for about a minute at a time for 200m time trials but triathletes who use it like it very much as well, cool enough etc.
One slightly strange effect, which comes from it being made in Italy (really made there, not made in Taiwan and re-badged), is when I wear it and ride home drunk late at night, I tend to sing "Santa Lucia" instead of the usual C of E hymns.
