POC POCito Helmet

With the POC POCito kids' helmet, your children will enjoy the same protection as you while you're out on the slopes, as it's created with the same features as the Swedish company's adult models. The POCito has a softer lining that provides improved shock absorption for delicate little heads, and can grow with your child thanks to an adjustable sizing system. The helmet comes with some surprising add-ins, as well, including a contact info panel near the goggle clip (in case your kiddo gets lost) that also lists emergency medical information, a Recco avalanche rescue reflector, bright orange ski bib, reflective accents, and a helmet-ed LED flashing light. For maximum safety, the little helmet comes in bright colors with reflective accents and an LED light on the back (includes light). Features * Shell made of injected PC/ABS material * Multi-impact EPP liner * Comfortable LD foam lining, removable for easy cleaning * Turn-ring size adjustment system * Goggle clip with contact information * EN 1077-A certified * 500-gram weight What's in the box? * POCito youth helmet * Bib in fluorescent orange with reflectors * Detachable LED lamp POC Snow Helmets POC has worked intensively with leading experts to understand every detail regarding how a helmet should be constructed, with the sole objective of creating better protection than ever before. When POC began, there were two types of helmets on the market: * The first type of helmet was a traditional helmet with a hard shell and a liner of softer expanded polystyrene (EPS), which has good penetration resistance and energy distribution properties. The disadvantage of the hard shell is that upon impact, the hard structure causes a sudden stop. The brain may continue to move in the direction of travel and the impact is not absorbed very well. Hard shell helmets are also quite heavy, which may cause the helmet to bounce off the ground on impact. * The second type of helmet was an "in-mold" helmet, which originated in the field of cycling. These molded helmets have a thinner shell of hard plastic that covers the ears and the back of the neck. Normally, both the traditional hard shell and in-mold helmets rely on expanded polystyrene (EPS) for shock absorption. EPS absorbs energy by plastic deformation, meaning it is deformed permanently upon impact. Therefore, a helmet liner made of EPS will not be good at absorbing repetitive shocks, while also providing poor protection from the effects of rotational violence, which is a major risk at oblique impacts. POC's patent-pending Aramid Ballistic Penetration (APB) barrier, however, offers better shock absorption, lower weight, and improved penetration resistance. For snow sport use, the APB shell is combined with a patent-pending, Ventilated Double Shell Anti Penetration (VDSAP). The concept was initially developed for the Receptor+ all-season helmet. Developed and certified in Europe and the US for skiing, snowboarding, skateboarding, biking, and water sports, VDSAP is built with double shells, placed offset, for maximum penetration resistance with channels to evacuate heat, moisture, or water. The inner shell is an extremely thin in-mold shell, while the outer shell is a hard shell of ABS and PC. Warranty POC products include a limited one-year manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. About POC POC is a Swedish company dedicated to saving lives and minimizing the consequences of accidents for all "gravity sports" athletes by advancing the science of personal protection. The company has innovated a number of technical solutions, constructions, material combinations, and engineering approaches with patented solutions which increase the degree of protection. From its corporate headquarters and research lab in Stockholm, POC employs engineers, material spets, industrial and graphic designers, neurologists, and back spets to be a leading voice in safety, medicine, care, advanced product development, and testing. All POC products have been tested by leading athletes before going through further refining and product improvement. The end result is a line of lightweight, high performance gear that offers advanced protection against injury thanks to superior impact absorption and penetration resistance.
