POC Skull Orbic Comp AD SPIN Helmet

Description POC FIS approved and ultimate race helmet, Skull Orbic Comp SPIN, takes high speed, oblique falls and repetitive impact protection to another level. The patent pending deflector panel uses a combination of technologies, EPP and VPD 2.0, to minimise the energy transmitted to a skier's head from repeatedly hitting gates or during a fall. The deflector panel is also reinforced with an Aramid Penetration Barrier (APB) which improves the safety and integrity of the helmet. Featuring POC's patent pending rotational impact protection system, SPIN, the internal shearing pads may reduce the effects of an oblique fall by reducing the amount of force transmitted to the head and brain. SPIN works by allowing pads placed inside the helmet to shear in any direction during an oblique impact, a process inspired by the brain's own internal protective system, cerebrospinal fluid, which cushions the head during a fall. By using the innovative and unique pad technology, which sit directly against the user's head, SPIN pads allow the helmet to move relative to the head during a fall, reducing the force transmitted to the brain. The Skull Orbic Comp SPIN also features ear chambers which have been designed to improve balance and hearing without compromising safety and fit. In addition, the helmet is compatible with the Maxilla break away chin-guard to provide extra levels of protection if required.   Features Helmet integrated with patent pending POC SPIN (Shearing Pad Inside) to increase protection against rotational impact VPD 2.0 deflector panel for enhanced protection against repeated impacts Aramid anti-penetration integrated in the deflector panel Updated ABS shell Multi-impact EPP liner with improved fit Ear chambers designed to improve balance and hearing Fixed goggle clip Compatible with POC’s Maxilla break away chin-guard for Slalom (sold separately) FIS RH 2013 certified ABS PC Shell Size Chart
