In-Helmet Technology
TECHNICAL SPECSÂ
dynamic frame
2x patented dynamic frame is designed to articulate in more than 8 different sections to fit any head shape
Polycarbonate and ABS blend frame expands more than 200% laterally and 130% longitudinally to ensure perfect fit
Carbon, rivets and slotted retention plates enable movement while maintaining integrity when you need it most – in an impact
patented dual stage liner
Patented composite protection system uses multiple materials to absorb more force across a larger range of impacts
Firmer and more docile materials allow the A2 to protect more effectively through it’s depth of compression
The progressive impact matrix gives the A2 a broad range of effectiveness on the hill
The Occipital Cup
Tension and cup system designed to assist in cupping one of the most unique points of any head – the Occipital Bum—an area typically left alone by traditional helmets
We cup this tension member down underneath your occipital bump, causing the entire unit to sit lower, closer and more comfortably to your head
center of gravity
The Dynamic Frame strives to have the lowest centre of gravity in the market
Less torque applied to your head; from swing weight, neck stability and impact safety
Mass centralization of the A2 is designed to fit close and low to promote safety and comfort in all situations
non-newtonian materials
Dual-stage liner utilizes shear-thickening non-Newtonian PU foams that are naturally soft, but harden instantly in response to impact
Delivers a dynamic foam hardness that protects small impacts and big hits
DOUBLE-CERTIFIED SAFETY
The A2 is the culmination of 7 years of R&D to keep you safe when it matters most. It’s double certified, with incredible impact safety results (we’re even the only company that posts them for all to see—they’re that good).
