Alpinestars SM3 Youth Fray Helmet for Off-Road and MX - Yellow Fluorescent, Size Youth Small to Large

$229.95
Anatomically engineered and profiled specifically for youth and younger riders, the all-new SM3 Youth is optimized for MX, Enduro and Off-road use, and features a whole raft of technologies and innovations taken from Alpinestars range of adult helmets to deliver the optimal blend of performance, protection and comfort. This lightweight helmet features a thermo-injected shell incorporating a special polymer blend enhanced by varying degrees of thickness that is engineered to deliver the optimal combination of impact protection and light weight. Lightweight outer shell is constructed from a technologically advanced impact resistant thermoplastic in three sizes (Youth Small, Youth Medium and Youth Large. The SM3 Youth weighs 1060g (ECE) and 1170g (DOT). Separate versions of the shells for DOT and ECE requirements; the DOT certified version of the helmet’s inner shell is constructed with a composite fiber assembled between the outer shell and the EPS liner for maximum protection against impacts. The fit can be tailored to the rider’s head thanks to the helmet’s crown and cheek pads, which are available as genuine spare parts in different thicknesses. Youth Medium and Youth Large sizes share the same EPS size, which allows riders with an YM size to initially buy an YM helmet and then configure it to a Youth Large size as they grow via the crown and cheek pad spare parts. The Youth Small has a smaller EPS size and can be customized only via the cheek pads. Alpinestars extensive research has shown that the kids that wear a YS size are very small, typically 3 to 4 years old, and therefore they require a dedicated helmet fit. Multiple density inner liner ensures the helmet is equipped with the correct density in the correct area for enhanced impact absorption, while also helping reduce overall weight. The inner and outer surfaces are engineered to minimize the effects of oblique impacts. Alpinestars patented low friction coating is applied to the inner part of the main EPS liner to reduce the rotational acceleration forces that can result from certain oblique impacts. This layer essentially acts as a slip plane to mimic the brain’s own low friction cerebrospinal fluid, which is the body’s natural defense against oblique impacts. Patented visor release system ensures the visor is released with the correct pre-determined amount of force, effectively reducing the forces on the rider’s neck during an impact. Comfort liner is constructed using recycled materials for a lower carbon footprint. Hydration tube channels are integrated into the helmet’s cheek pads for convenience and performance.

The Alpinestars SM3 Youth Fray Helmet is specially designed for young riders participating in motocross, enduro, and off-road activities, offering a blend of advanced protection, comfort, and lightweight performance. Crafted with a thermo-injected shell using a specialized polymer blend, this helmet provides impact resistance while maintaining a lightweight profile, making it suitable for smaller heads and active riding. The shell's varying thickness enhances impact absorption, and the helmet is available in multiple sizes to accommodate growing riders, with features allowing size adjustments over time through spare parts. The helmet weighs approximately 37 ounces, ensuring minimal fatigue during extended rides, and is built to meet both DOT and ECE safety standards for global use.

The SM3 Youth features a multi-density inner liner that optimizes impact absorption across different areas of the helmet, reducing rotational forces thanks to Alpinestars' patented low friction coating that mimics cerebrospinal fluid. This slip plane technology helps mitigate injury risks during oblique impacts. The helmet includes an emergency release system with removable cheek pads, allowing for quick and safe removal if necessary, while the 3D contoured foam ensures rider comfort. Ventilation is maximized through 10 inlet vents and 7 exhaust ports, directing airflow efficiently across the helmet to keep riders cool and focused during demanding off-road sessions.

Additional features include a visor release system that minimizes neck forces during impact, a soft textile chin strap for comfort, and stainless steel D-rings for a secure fit. The helmet's interior is constructed using recycled materials, contributing to sustainability efforts. Designed with safety and convenience in mind, the SM3 Youth helmet also incorporates integrated hydration tube channels within the cheek pads for easy hydration during rides. The helmet's shell thickness and structure have been rigorously tested and optimized to provide superior impact performance, especially around the chin area, exceeding standard safety requirements. Suitable for young riders from preschool to early teens, the Alpinestars SM3 Youth Helmet offers peace of mind for parents and confidence for riders, combining innovative technology with a comfortable fit for off-road adventures.
