Northwave Storm Helmet 2015

In-mold construction is a manufacturing technique where the foam interior liner of the helmet is "blown in" while the hard exterior shell is still in the manufacturing mold. In-mold helmets tend to be lighter and have more venting than traditional methods. In IN-MOLD production technology, the polycarbonate upper helmet shell is fused with the EPS granulate of the helmet body under high heat and pressure. This creates an inseparable, large-area bonding of the upper and lower shell. Advantage: The helmet is very light yet extremely sturdy.

Hi-EPS:.

High Expanded Polystyrene". The inner shells of all IN MOLD helmets are made of HI-EPS. The inner shell of every Northwave helmet is made of HI-EPS. It consists of microscopic air pockets that optimally absorb the impact forces that act on the helmet in a crash. Despite its optimum protective effect HI-EPS allows extra-thin wall thicknesses and slim helmet shapes to be achieved.

Run System SRS:.

Run System SRS comes with the newly developed rotable control knob made of the two-component mix - for secure grip. Anytime the helmet is adjusted to the rider's head.

Air Ventilation System:.

Northwave invest a lot of time and energy in improving the ventilation of our bike helmets. It cools the head, reduces perspiration and increases performance. Clever positioning of vents assures optimal ventilation and cooling. NW helmets are developed utilising their proprietary A.V.S., which combines active vents with internal exhaust channels that thrust cool, fresh air over and around the riders head-while forcing heat and stale air out. This significant increase in air channelling makes a difference that riders will immediately feel and appreciate.

Fit Divider:.

The lateral divider ensures rapid adjustment of the helmet's fastening system. Put on the helmet, fasten the buckle and then just move the lateral divider up or down for your personal fit.

Anti-Bacterial Interior:.

Helmets pads made of a special padding material reduce the formation of bacteria and thus prevent perspiration odors.
