• Multi Impact EPP liner with VPD 2.0 deflector panel

  Helmets with an Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) liner and visco- elastic polymer dough (VPD) layer have been developed specifically for the needs of ski racers. To minimise the force and impact to a skier’s head from repeatedly hitting gates the liner uses the protection and absorption properties of a VPD 2.0 layer with aramid
  reinforcement. The EPP liner also provides maximum impact protection in case of a significant fall and both VPD and EPP have been designed for multi impact protection.

• Multi-Impact Deflector Panel

  Through examining helmets used by World Cup alpine racers, we identified that they were worn out in the front due to repeated impacts from the gates. The violence was more severe than we had ever imagined and the discovery led us to developing the Multi-Impact Deflector Panel, featured in the new line of Skull Orbic helmets. Our deflector panels decrease the transmitted force of the impact, and increase the shock absorbing capacity of the helmets. This ensures that the helmet performance remains at the highest level when it’s really needed: in a real crash. In the deflector panel of the Skull Orbic Comp SPIN, we integrated our patented VPD 2.0 that has extreme impact absorbing properties, proven for repeated impacts in our body armor collection. The Skull Orbic X SPIN deflector panel is made of multi-impact EPP material.

• Multi-Impact Performance

  Most helmets today have liners made of EPS (Expanded Polystyrene), a great shock absorbing material, but it will be permanently compressed when absorbing an impact, even a minor one. Using multi-impact EPP (Expanded Polypropylene)as core material creates a helmet that will protect your head over and over again.
