The all-new SM3 Youth helmet is anatomically engineered and profiled specifically for younger riders, optimized for motocross, enduro and off-road use. 🏁
The lightweight, thermo-injected shell uses a special polymer blend with variable thickness to deliver an ideal combination of impact protection and low mass, with a typical weight around 1060 g.
A multiple-density inner liner places correct densities where needed to improve impact absorption while reducing overall weight, and inner and outer surfaces are engineered to minimize the effects of oblique impacts.
The manufacturer’s patented low-friction layer inside the main EPS liner acts as a slip plane to reduce rotational acceleration from oblique impacts.
The visor features a release system tuned to free the visor at a predetermined force to help reduce neck loads in an impact, and an emergency release system plus removable cheek pads permit safer helmet removal while the helmet remains on the rider.
Crown and cheek pads can be tailored for fit as riders grow; smaller sizes are optimized for very young children and have dedicated EPS sizing.
Comfort liner is made from recycled textiles for a lower carbon footprint, and hydration tube channels are integrated into the cheek pads for convenience.
Ventilation is maximized through ten inlets and seven exhaust ports, with the visor directing airflow into the ports for enhanced cooling. 🌬️
Safety-focused features include a reinforced chin area tested to standards above homologation, a soft 25 mm chin strap, and stainless steel D-rings for secure fastening.
