Local Helmet

Action Fit is a unique technology developed by Bell that allows you to easily adjust your helmet for a snug and comfortable fit. By using a system of straps or a dial, you can customize how tightly the helmet sits on your head. This ensures that the helmet stays securely in place during activities like biking or skating, which is crucial for maximizing safety and comfort.

An EPS liner, or Expanded Polystyrene liner, is a type of foam used in helmets to provide impact protection. It absorbs energy from impacts, significantly reducing the risk of head injuries during falls or collisions. The lightweight nature of EPS makes it an effective material for safety without adding unnecessary weight to the helmet.

Ventilation refers to the design features, such as vents, that allow air to flow through the helmet. Good ventilation helps keep you cool and comfortable, especially during intense physical activities where you might sweat. A well-ventilated helmet can prevent overheating, allowing you to focus on your performance without discomfort.

The ASTM F1492-08 certification is a safety standard established by the American Society for Testing and Materials specifically for skate helmets. Helmets that meet this standard have undergone rigorous testing to ensure they provide adequate impact resistance and safety. Choosing a helmet with this certification means you are selecting a product that has been proven to protect you during skateboarding and similar activities.

The CE EN1078 standard is a European safety certification for helmets used in cycling and skateboarding. Helmets that comply with this standard have been tested to meet specific design and performance requirements, ensuring they provide adequate protection. If you’re in Europe or participating in activities there, choosing a helmet with this certification is essential for your safety.

To ensure a proper fit with the Action Fit system, adjust the straps or dial until the helmet feels snug but comfortable on your head. It should sit level on your head, not tilted back or forward, and should not move when you shake your head gently. A well-fitted helmet will provide maximum protection and comfort during your activities.
