Fox Racing V3 RS Grid Helmet - Black/Orange

Fox Racing V3 RS Grid Helmet

The V3 RS helmet has been designed to include next level features that align with your performance demands. Equipped with Mips® safety system How does the Mips® safety system work? The brain is typically more sensitive to rotational motion than linear motion because it has shear properties similar to water or gel. When different parts of the brain move relative to each other because of rotational motion, the tissues can stretch, which can cause concussions or other brain injuries. Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions and more severe brain injury in oblique hits to the head. The Mips® safety system consists of a low friction layer mounted inside the helmet. In a crash, the low friction layer is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head. This is intended to help reduce the risk of brain injury. —an impact technology that manages rotational forces on impact to add a low-friction layer between the helmet and the head—and additional impact and energy dispersing features, the V3 RS provides the kind of protection every racer needs. Safety and performance go hand-in-hand with this pro-level and race-ready dirt bike helmet. Worn and refined by the fastest racers on the planet, the V3 RS is made for motocross champions.

Features:

• Equipped with Mips® safety system
• Magnetic Visor Release System (MVRS) positions the visor with a center post magnet and two side shear off screws
• Visor is designed to flex under impact prior to breaking away to provide additional rotational impact management
• Dual density Varizorb EPS liner Expanded polystyrene (EPS) is a rigid, energy absorbing foam. In the helmet industry, EPS is the most common means of energy management to protect the brain. Generic EPS is often referred to as “Styrofoam” (a trademarked name owned by the Dow Chemical Company). Premium helmet producers utilize multi-density EPS liners to balance comfort, safety and performance. is meant to provide protection by spreading the forces of impact across a wider surface area
• EPP chin bar maintains lower weight while helping to manage energy during impact
• EPS is compatible with Eject Helmet Removal System 
• MCT (Multi Composite Technology) Shell construction that blends Carbon and FRP resins to provide a light yet rigid external shell
• 4 shell and EPS sizes for best in class fit
• Injected mesh vent screens for superior ventilation and airflow, while maintaining protection from dirt and debris
• Removable, washable X-Static comfort liner keeps helmet comfortable and fresh
• Emergency release cheek pads are antimicrobial and manage odor while wicking moisture away from the head
• Carbon fiber D rings
• Meets DOT and/or ECE 22.05 The ECE 22.05 (Economic Commission for Europe) standard is quite a bit younger than the current DOT standard, and in many ways offers a more comprehensive battery of testing than its American cousin. ECE standards test for safety features that can contribute to avoiding an accident altogether, such as the optical quality of approved face shields and safety factors not directly related to impact, such as shell rigidity. Unlike the DOT, every ECE 22.05 certified helmet model must actually be tested against the standard by an independent lab before it is available for sale with an ECE sticker. standards
