DESCRIPTION :

• • Shell construction utilizes a highly advanced molding technology with a multi-composite combination: uni-directional carbon composite with aramid layer that gives significant radial strength around the shell, preventing compression but allowing controlled deflection for reducing transmitted impact energy, and providing critical penetration protection.
  • This combination of layers is given even greater performance with an epoxy resin bonding that offers the best possible strength and energy management; limited outer shell deflection means the energy spreads wider and is better absorbed by the EPS liner.
  • The result of the unique shell lay-up process employed in the S-M8 construction results in extremely effective impact protection.
  • With a fully equipped helmet testing facility, within Alpinestars Racing Development Center, an exhaustive impact research program has resulted in the Supertech M8 returning linear and oblique impact performance which far improves upon current helmet regulation standard limits.
  • For direct, linear, impact by an average magnitude of 41% and for rotational acceleration, oblique, impact performance by an average of 48%.
  • The Supertech M8 liner construction combines with the shell to offer highly efficient impact energy management.
  • S-M8 in four anatomical shell sizes.
  • The Supertech M8 shell construction is optimized to offer best fit across the range of four size options. Shell sizes are manufactured in small, medium, large and extra-large to ensure that riders have the correct fit which not only improves comfort but, most importantly, the effectiveness of the helmet in an impact.
  • The Supertech M8 liner construction combines with the shell to offer highly efficient impact energy management.
  • Formed with a multi-density EPS polymer, the energy absorbing layer gives an inner helmet profile which soaks up impact forces dissipated over the outer shell at the point of an impact and provides a shape offering a close and comfortable fit.
  • The energy absorption performance of the S-M8 is substantially improved by a four section construction that allows for specific densities of polymer to be prepared for different zones around the helmet lining. Not only is energy performance improved but also fit and comfort.
  • Patented A-Head fitting height and angle adjustment system.
  • The Supertech M8 incorportes a patented system to allow the helmet to be tuned exactly to the riders preference for the height and angle at which the helmet sits on the head.
  • This unique technology allows for an ultra-specific set-up that can be adapted for the type of riding and the riders preference.
  • With a micro-adjustable pad that is connected to the helmet inner shell, it is possible to raise or lower the helmet fit and also, to tilt the helmet forward, or backwards.
  • Multi-Directional Impact Protection System: MIPS.
  • MIPS is incorporated into the Supertech M8 to reduce rotational motion energies that impact the helmet causing damaging gyration force to be transmitted to the brain.
  • Emergency Release System (ERS).
  • The side cheek padding of the S-M8 can be extracted efficiently and safely, while the helmet is still on the riders head, to allow ease of removal by trackside support and medical staff.
  • The Supertech M8 is also designed to allow a helmet Eject inflation system to be fitted into the inside crown of the shell.
  • Along with the ERS padding removal, Eject allows for emergency removal of the helmet, without putting load on the riders spine.
  • Weight of S-M8 is 1300g for size Medium (ECE
