Vents
At the front, there is the POC patent VDSAP (Ventilated- Double-Shell-Anti-Penetration), a double shell solution where air is transported between two layers of shell, to avoid direct wind and to withstand penetration from sharp objects. At the back, there are ventilation holes for the helmet to function as a chimney, where air is pulled from the front to the rear.
On top, the helmet has generous ventilation with six vents, that may be closed or semi-closed with a turning-devise. This combination makes the helmet very airy and very light.
Construction
With MIPS Protection System technology the shell and the liner are separated by a low friction layer. When a helmet with MIPS technology is subjected to an oblique impact, the low friction layer allows a small rotation of the shell relative to the liner. The brain is more sensitive to oblique impacts than radial impacts.
Carbon shell
Multi-impact Super EPP core
Better shock absorption, lower weight and penetration resistance are some of the major advantages solved by using POC’s patent pending Aramid Ballistic Penetration barrier.
Goggle Compatibility
Recommended with POC goggles but works with any brand
Adjustability
Ear chambers designed for balance and hearing
Chin bar size and distance from face is optimized for protection without sacrificing easy breathability
