TECHNOLOGY:

 

MIPS (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System): This system is based on a hard plastic shell placed inside the helmet. Fixed to the helmet with multi-directional attachments, the MIPS system can move in all directions inside the helmet. The aim is to let the helmet move freely on the head in the event of an oblique impact. By turning around the head, the helmet absorbs and dissipates the force of the impact, thus reducing the effect on the brain.

RECCO®: Safety system based on radar technology, helping find victims after avalanches. The Recco® system built into the product allows waves to reflect back to the transmitter, helping the rescue team to find victims faster. The Recco® system is complementary to other security systems used for off-piste skiing/boarding.

 

COMPOSITION:

 

EPS Construction: Expanded polystyrene (EPS) interior for shock absorption and robustness. As it is close to the head, this layer needs to be as soft as possible while also ensuring maximum protection.

 

CONSTRUCTION:

 

In-Mold: Construction with unique moulding between the outer shell and the inner lining, significantly reducing the weight of the helmet and providing more efficient ventilation. This unique construction also ensures a better diffusion of the impact on a larger part of the helmet.

The outer shell made from polycarbonate (known for its excellent impact resistance) is directly moulded with the expanded polystyrene (EPS) inner foam.

 

Aramid Bridges: The Aramid Bridge construction distributes shocks throughout the helmet upon impact. The helmet also provides structural stability and is extremely lightweight due to the In-Mold shell with EPS Liner.
