This helmet is equipped with a double-patented innovation: Visor +.mask or visor: the choice is yours!
The special thing about this helmet is that it’s compatible with your mask, as well as with a visor, so it integrates perfectly.To do this, there are three visors you can buy:- Visor for bad weather (S1):Pink lens, ref. 8965949
- Visor for good weather (S3):Brown lens, ref. 8960724
- Visor for good weather (S3), High Definition:Volcano lens, ref. 8960727
The visors are compliant with Standard ISO 18527- 1, and are very easily interchangeable, tool-free.
MIPS® technology reduces rotational energy from an impact and limits the risk of brain injury.
The low-friction layer (yellow layer under the helmet liner) allows multi-directional movement of 10 to 15mm with certain oblique shocks. This is to reduce the rotational force transmitted to the head and brain.
The visor offers an advantage for those who wear glasses: it really widens your field of vision.
In addition to being suitable for wearing over glasses while skiing, the visor widens the field of vision by 25% horizontally and 7% vertically. This allows you to anticipate better and not miss a thing, for more fun and safety!
The visor is HD so you can see the mountain in high definition.
By increasing contrast, HD technology provides excellent quality of vision. It is very comfortable and enhances the visibility of the landscape ahead, giving you better anticipation capacity.
The visor is interchangeable to suit weather conditions or personal preferences.
In the mountains, it is essential to have a suitable visor. This good weather visor (S3) is opaque enough to protect your eyes from UV rays and allow you to see contrasts clearly. The flash (outer colour of the screen) does not affect your vision, only the design.
The Visor+ system can be repaired.
If broken, our Visor+ system can be repaired. It is sold separately so you can refit it at home. If you have any questions, please visit your nearest store.
ABS shell.
The helmet is made of a rigid ABS shell and an internal EPS liner to absorb impacts.
How to choose the right size and trying on your helmet
Measure the circumference of your head (from the middle of your forehead to the top of your ears) and choose the right size. When trying on the helmet, you should not feel any discomfort. If the helmet does not have a visor, try it on with a pair of goggles: There should be no gaps between the two.
Adjust your helmet once you have the right size.
For your safety, your ski helmet must be properly adjusted:
- The head circumference must be adjusted using the tightening dial.
- The chin strap must be correctly adjusted. You should be able to fit two fingers between the strap and your skin. If the helmet is poorly fitted, it will provide less protection.
When to change your ski helmet?
We recommend changing your ski helmet every 5 years, unless it has sustained a significant impact in the meantime. In case of severe impact, you need to change the helmet: even if you can’t see it, the inner material may be damaged and your helmet will offer less protection.
A helmet keeps you warm: you don't need to wear a hat underneath – in fact, it’s best not to.
Avoid wearing a hat, as this will create a gap between your head and your helmet and reduce your protection. If necessary, opt for a very thin balaclava designed for this purpose.
Avoid putting a camera on the helmet, as this will compromise your safety. The standard does not take into account any elements added to the helmet.
This helmet is governed by European standard EN 1077:2007, applicable to helmets used in downhill skiing or snowboarding.
It is characterised by its shock absorption capacity and penetration resistance. There are two categories of protection:
- Class A: the top and back of the head, as well as the ears and sides of the head.
- Class B: the top and back of the head, but not the ears.
