Alpinestars Supertech M8 Helmet 2XL Factory Blue/Orange/Yellow

The Alpinestars Supertech M8 Helmet is engineered with advanced shell construction utilizing multi-composite molding technology. The shell combines uni-directional carbon composite with an aramid layer, providing significant radial strength for impact resistance while allowing controlled deflection to reduce transmitted impact energy. An epoxy resin bonding system enhances overall strength and energy management, ensuring the helmet maintains structural integrity under high-impact conditions. The outer shell's limited deflection aids in dispersing impact forces over the multi-density EPS liner, which is designed to absorb and dissipate energy efficiently. This liner features a multi-density EPS polymer that offers tailored impact absorption zones, enhancing both safety and comfort for the rider. The helmet's shape is contoured for a close, comfortable fit and is optimized for various riding styles, thanks to its four-section liner construction that allows for specific density tuning around different zones of the helmet.

The Supertech M8 incorporates an adjustable A-Head fitting height and angle system, enabling riders to fine-tune the helmet's position for a personalized fit. The micro-adjustable pad system allows for raising, lowering, and tilting the helmet to suit individual preferences, ensuring optimal comfort and stability during high-performance riding. The visor mounting system features a secure release mechanism designed to withstand extreme terrain and track conditions, detaching safely upon significant impact to minimize injury risk. Its innovative design reduces the potential for leverage and rotational forces, maintaining shell integrity and protecting the rider's neck and spine.

The helmet's base is sculpted with a relief section to clear the collarbone, complemented by an energy absorption pad that includes a flexible rubber compound for added impact protection. The polypropylene chinbar enhances impact deflection further, providing extra safety for the collarbones. Integrated Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS®) technology reduces rotational impact forces, mitigating brain injury risks by allowing the helmet's inner layers to move independently during rotational impacts. A low-friction slip layer between the comfort padding and the energy absorption shell helps dampen rotational forces, providing an additional layer of protection.

For emergency situations, the Supertech M8 features an Emergency Release System (ERS) that facilitates quick and safe removal of the side cheek padding, enabling medical personnel to assist the rider efficiently. An optional helmet ‘Eject’ inflation system can be installed for emergency removal without straining the rider's spine. The wider chin-strap (26 mm) is crafted from woven poly yarn for a soft feel and secure fit using a double D-ring closure. Overall, the helmet's materials, weight, strength, and energy absorption properties have been meticulously analyzed and designed to meet rigorous safety standards, making the Alpinestars Supertech M8 a top choice for professional and serious riders seeking maximum protection and comfort.
