TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Experience
We've designed this helmet with the aim of providing maximum field of vision with no blind spots for greater comfort and safety.
Its rotation/transformation system enables you to easily put your glasses on when the visor is raised or lowered.
Another benefit of this system is that it provides a better fit around the face and is more airtight than a simple rotation system.
How to change the visor
You can remove the visor (no tools required) and replace the original lens with a bad-weather lens (sold separately).
Compatibility
The rotation/transformation system ensures that the helmet is compatible with even the widest pairs of glasses.
ADJUSTMENT WHEEL
The adjustment wheel plays a key role in keeping your helmet secure. This system can be easily and precisely adjusted at any time using the easily accessible dial that you can even use with your skiing gloves. It also gives you comfort and maximum safety. Turn the dial to the right to tighten and to the left to loosen.
EN 1077 Standard
This type of structure incorporates an outer shell, made of ABS, injection moulded to withstand powerful impacts. High resistance to bumps and knocks. The internal EPOS skullcap absorbs impact and collision at the time of impact. We recommend changing your ski helmet at least every 5 years unless it has sustained a significant impact in the meantime.
Choosing the right helmet size
* Measure your head’s circumference in centimetres (around the middle of the forehead and just above the ears).
* Choose the size that covers this measurement.
Example: if you have a head circumference of 56 cm, you should try a helmet in size 55-59 cm.
FITTING
Take plenty of time to try it on properly. You shouldn't feel any areas of discomfort. If you do then try another model. Always remember to try your visor helmet with your prescription glasses if you have them.
HELMET ADJUSTMENT
During practice, the ski helmet must be properly fitted and adjusted:
* It is essential to choose the right size.
* The head circumference must be adjusted using the thumb wheel.
* The chinstrap must be properly adjusted.
It's a bit like the seat belt in a car: if it’s too loose, it will not perform its function and you will be less protected.
Optical quality
The visor that is provided as standard is a “fair-weather” one (S3). It has a brown/orange tint for greater versatility.
No tools are required to remove it. A “bad-weather” visor is sold separately.
This is a single-lens visor with an anti-fog treatment on the inside (never wipe, but pat with a soft cloth)
