A good helmet must have a few things; ventilation, comfort, style and of course protection. POC ski helmets offer all this and much more as POC has worked with leading experts in the field to ensure they understand every detail of how a helmet should be constructed. In doing this POC has come up with several different concepts and technologies for different needs.
Ski helmets were traditionally composed of expanded polystyrene (EPS) for shock absorption but POC in doing research found a better alternative for skiing. Knowing that a ski helmet would need to take several impacts and offer great protection each time POC ski helmets started using expanded polypropylene (EPP) instead of EPS. EPP unlike EPS will not deform permanently upon impact which means it can take repetitive hits and shocks. This is a great option for all skiers but is a game changer for ski racers who often hit the gates with their helmet causing repetitive impacts.
By popular demand POC ski helmets went to the drawing board to come up with an ultra ventilated helmet making it adjustable for colder days. Knowing that an adjustable ventilation system can add weight POC relied on innovations and patents they already had used in previous models. POC took all these technologies and put them to use on one helmet. The front of the helmet offers the POC patented VDSAP which is a double shell solution where air is transported between the two layers of the shell which protects against penetration and avoids direct wind through the helmet. The rear of the helmet offers ventilation holes which act as a chimney for the helmet as air is pulled from the front to the rear. The top of these POC ski helmets offer ventilation by six vents which can be closed, semi closed or fully opened. With all these ventilation options you know you will be comfortable in a POC ski helmet.
As you can see you can put trust into a POC ski helmet to protect you while skiing. That’s why top skiers like Jon Olsson, Tanner Hall, TJ Schiller and more use POC ski helmets. Available in many styles for men, women, boys and girls there is sure to be a POC helmet that will work great for you. Skis.com offers a great selection of POC ski helmets with the guaranteed lowest price.
